In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

5 reasons to book
  • Superb service — Guests repeatedly highlight the attentive, warm staff, from sorting out late-night issues to setting up business equipment.
  • Convenient airport location — The hotel is attached to the domestic terminal, and several reviews call the location unbeatable or walking distance to everything they needed.
  • Excellent breakfast and dining — The breakfast spread at Tiqri is repeatedly praised as lavish, with fresh pastries, fruit and local dishes.
  • Rooms with views — Guests love the spacious rooms and the runway views, which are a hit with families and plane-spotters alike.
  • Top-rated spa and fitness — The Jiva Spa offers massages and treatments, and the gym is well-stocked — enough to keep you active and relaxed during a stay.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Price is on the higher side — Rates from £163 per night put this at the premium end, and one guest noted the breakfast, while excellent, comes at a higher rate.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a dog or cat, this isn't the place — the policy is clear on that.
  • Check-in window is strict — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 23:59, so if you arrive very early or after midnight, you may need to wait or arrange alternative plans.
  • Airport noise possible — Given the location right at the terminal, some rooms may pick up airport activity despite soundproofing.
