Thistle London Heathrow Terminal 5

great place good food simply awesome

Friendly greeting at reception. Clean room and bathroom. Excellent buffet breakfast. Perfect hotel for an overnight before or after a T5 Heathrow flight. The pods to the Terminal 👌 Will certainly use and recommend

This hotel was excellent in every way. The staff were so incredibly polite and friendly. I can’t single anyone out because this applied to each and every person. The gentleman in reception stood next to me whilst checking in and we laughed together about using technology. The room was very clean. Coffee, tea and biscuits were provided and both sugar and sweeteners. There were two biscuits as well. I went to the sports bar first and ordered a dark and stormy cocktail. It was delicious. Then I transferred to the Aviator Restaurant and had a delicious starter of some cauliflower bites with dips and finally fish chips and peas. This was first class. My food was piping hot. This is a rarity and I have to say that both those courses gave me one of the best meals that I’ve had recently . I was very impressed. It was dark when I went there but in the Summer the outdoor space overlooking the runway must be lovely. My room was comfortable and a pleasant temperature. It was also well soundproofed. The location was excellent. I didn’t use the pod not sure of the cost £8-9 each way I think? However, just getting the bus straight outside the entrance to terminal five was extremely easy. It’s number 423 and costs £1.75 each way. It comes around every 20-30 minutes. These prices are current January 25. For those who like to charge devices there were enough sockets in the room but on a desk not bedside. For the money I paid I thought it was excellent value. I

Clean comfortable room, perfectly connected to T5 via the Pod. Nice , very gentle staff ! Excellent stay
