Whether you have little monsters to entertain or you just want to keep yourself occupied during your stay at the airport, you'll find exactly what you're after at the Holiday Inn M4, Jct. 4. This particular Heathrow hotel might not have the most exciting name - that's just to make it easy to find - but the M4 Jct. 4 is all about fun. There are two children's areas, one with toys and games for the under 6s and one with DVDs, Xbox Kinect, Wii and iPads for older children. There are two bars and two restaurants, and there's also a free-to-use 24-hour gym with both cardio-vascular equipment, including treadmills with a personal TV on each, and free weights.
After you've worked up an appetite, you'll want to take in the hotel's two restaurants. The Rotisserie Restaurant's sophisticated atmosphere makes it a pleasant place to sample their varied cuisine, which includes everything from fajitas to lamb dhansak. Otherwise, you can continue the exotic theme with a delicious Asian meal at the elegant Sampans restaurant. After dinner you can enjoy a Guinness at the new Callaghan's Irish pub or a coffee at the Lounge bar.
Everything is covered so you won't have to worry
On the morning of your flight, it's just a quick trip on the Heathrow Hoppa to the terminal; less than 15 minutes. If you've forgotten anything, the hotel has a gift shop with magazines and books, as well as an ATM in reception. After your holiday, if you have time to spare, you're still just a half-hour drive to Legoland, for an extra holiday treat before you go home.
We recommend the Holiday Inn M4 J4 for:
Fun for the kids -Game rooms with consoles and DVDs and just a quick drive from Legoland, the hotel is a great place for kids.
Fun for you -With a high-tech gym, fancy restaurants and two great bars, you'll find it easy to while away the time.
Fun for the family -The hotel's just 15 minutes from the terminals, so there won't be any tantrums, and your kids will be happy too!
