@Roberto I guess so but if it’s a proper holiday what’s a few more £ there’s also easy access to airside with a few cheaper bites or the underground into Hayes etc if you have more time, some great food to be found.

I stayed at T4 CP recently and honestly unless the flight was post 10-11 I would stick to Sofitel unless you are twilight checking luggage.

I totally agree.. I must have done the 06:45 flight to Malaga 30 times and generally stump up the extra for the sofitel but for a later flight I will vote with my wallet. Its not only the £169 headline rate but the cost of drinks at the bar too that puts the damper of staying there.

It is a lovley hotel but the PI is often £50 a night or so and that’s enough to get me on a bus. My next LH goes at 4pm or something similar, there is no way I could justify £119 extra to save me 30 mins. I would rather spend that in Vegas…
