Staff were very friendly and helpful at the rather attractive de Salis hotel which had good facilities - room was quiet and clean. Park and stay deal was excellent.

Yes, but almost a problem as the hotel only had my forename, not my surname. Also, the long stay car park automatic number plate system didn't work, but luckily the guy in the office was able to confirm that I had paid.

When we arrived at the hotel the front looked quite welcoming but when driving round the back the parking area could only be described as 'rough'. We were taken to our room with mutters from the receptionist that they were fully booked but may be able to offer a different room. The room we were offered had an outside entrance and was awful, with rough walls, a really old bed and a feeling of not really being part of the hotel. We said we wanted a different room and was given a room in the hotel which was better but unbeknown to us had an underfloor leak in the bathroom making the floor completely wet! We did report this in leaving but only to the night receptionist as it was 5.15am.

Hotel was easy enough to find but road to it was bad ie flooding. Sat nav got us there fine. Room was nice and big but one pillow case was missing and no hairdryer I always check as it saves me taking my own. They did provide it on request. Food average big pizza with thick crust. It was clean with plenty of loo roll too. Handwashceascempty but they had left soaps and shampoo satchets. On returning to room we found it cold and most the heat was going out the window but bed was comfy and shower access was walk in ideal as my husbands currently using a stick due to injury.

Room ok but I was a late arrival (3 am plus) and was awoken from 6 am with the noise of the planes and only found out as it got light that the bedroom window was open and letting in all the noise, so I did not get the rest before a long drive that was my reason for staying. Breakfast was good.

Nice hotel, nice staff, but the parking was not at the hotel, but in long term. This took me nearly an hour to park my car and get back to the hotel the night before. I had an early morning flight and did not want to do this in the morning. The whole point of the hotel was to not have to get up too early in the morning. If I had not parked the night before, I would not have saved any time because I would have had to allow at least 40 minutes to park my car before my flight. I would have been just as well off staying in my home and driving that morning. I won't do this again with this hotel, unless I can have on site hotel parking. This is very important!

Hotel very handy for Stansted airport. However, very dated. Hotel needs a 'face lift'.

Very short staffed and waited ages for our meal. Our room was right next door to entrance and also the door to all the rooms on our side which was very noisy, as when they shut they banged. Being near the front door the car that was being used as the shuttle was also outside our room, We did not get much sleep as car doors also banging shut and the lights from headlights showed through. So we would not use this Hotel again.

Dirty room, poor customer service. Rushed through our evening meal - dessert placed on table while still eating our main course! And we witnessed another customer being spoken to very rudely. Very expensive for a tired, run down hotel.

Friendly reception staff and plenty of parking spaces. Reasonably close to Stansted. Reasonably priced. Water marks around toilet in our bathroom which need removing/floor replacing. Would use this hotel again.

room was comfortable and nice but it was above reception and heard every thing (talking, cups, plates) being put down nearly every thing that goes on in the kitchen and on reception know one at reception when it was time to leave to talk about it.

This is a terrible hotel (hotel is not the correct word). It would be great for a stag / hen party however! My biggest issue was the total mess up of holiday extra with the car parking!!!! Really unhappy you completely messed it all up!!!

Nice place, with friendly, helpful staff. Convenient if you are flying from Stansted. You get one nights parking free, unlike a lot of the bigger hotels and you can get breakfast from 3 am, which is great if you have an early flight.

My reason for a low score is not really due to the hotel. It is more to do with your inaccurate service. There was not a bus to take me to the hotel from the airport! You need to liaise with the hotel to get this right. I spent a lot of time asking people where the bus to the hotel was located. I eventually was told to go the Radisson Blue -- who were extrememly helpful. They new the procedure and telephoned the hotel on my behalf. I waited for half an hour for the bus to arrive although I was told it would be just 10 minutes.

The hotel was not what we expected. The quirkiness (& free continental breakfast) were it's only redeeming features. The room was dated, but more concernedly, Dirty! The evening meal was mediocre at best, with very limited choice, certainly not worth the "deal" price we paid.

The facilities, including the pre-booked dinner were excellent although, being in the Hospitality Industry myself, I was surprised at how small and under-equipped the bar seemed. Also, we paid for transfers to and from the airport (which were dearer than advertised) and we were dropped a good distance away from the Terminal building (at the entrance of the Radisson Blu Hotel) rather than use the Express drop-off point at the Terminal. We are both pensioners, and had 2 suitcases plus carry-ons, so the distance we were obliged to walk before even getting to the Check-In desks was not appreciated.

Booked De Salis Hotel. We had to change rooms upon arrival as the allocated room had mold growth from the room next door's bathroom! Rooms very basic and in need of a good clean and refurb. Very little choice for dinner in the restaurant. Having said this the staff were very helpful and pleasant. The bus to the airport and back was good, although they dropped us off (and picked up) at the Blue Raddison Hotel and not outside the airport. Holiday Extras provided their usual excellent service but this hotel (de Salis) isn't really up to standard.
