Holiday Inn Express, London, Luton Airport





This is an Express, Holiday Inn Express. Very basic room and a bath. People keep using the term "very European" to describe it but I have stayed in bigger hotels in Europe that would also be "very European". The reception area is combined with the bar and lounge area, very lively check in late at night. The breakfast area is nice and plenty of different types of food and drink, the reception staff did a nice job and is one of the few hotels that asks to see and ID before processing anything. The hotel is actually on the airport property but the rooms a very quiet. The room is a room, no closet just an area to hang clothes, no iron or ironing board, there is a room where you can go to iron. the bath is basic, one dispenser of a combo body wash and shampoo, TV with about 5 channels, overall very clean and a good deal if you need to stay close to the airport. The cost was $124 US which included breakfast.

Looks like pretty much the standard hotel in Europe. What kind of equipment do you fly?
