Travelling with a baby is far removed from travelling alone, and it can be a stressful time if you don't do things properly.
The sheer quantity of extra items you will need to carry with you can be a real hindrance, and is exactly why an on-airport hotel will fit the bill perfectly.
The last thing you need is to be struggling into a taxi or transfer bus as you make your way to the airport, weighed down by additional baby luggage. On-airport hotels are located very close to the airport terminal, and in many cases will actually be connected via a covered walkway. Think of the ease of just walking a few steps from your hotel room to check-in.
At Gatwick airport you have the luxury of two such hotels that are both connected directly to the terminal: the Sofitel London Gatwick and the Gatwick Hilton.

The Sofitel London Gatwick is a fantastic 4-star hotel linked directly to the North Terminal. Here you can choose from a great range of rooms and enjoy the high quality amenities that the hotel has to offer. The Gatwick Hilton, meanwhile, is connected to the South Terminal by a covered walkway and also boasts a fine selection of amenities.
Why make life harder for yourself and your baby? Simply book an on-airport hotel and walk straight from breakfast to check-in, removing the stresses and strains of carrying all those baby supplies.
