The ensuite bathrooms carry fluffy towels and bath amenities, and a laptop-sized safe covers the valuables.

Breakfast and Dining
The Restaurant & Lounge serves the free hot buffet breakfast from the early hours, then lunch and dinner through the day, with hot and cold snacks available 24 hours. Opening hours run 4:00 am to 11:00 pm, matched to the airport’s schedule rather than a normal hotel day.
Facilities and Services
A 24-hour fitness centre with free weights and machines keeps workouts possible at any hour, and a business centre with two meeting rooms offers 54 sqm of event space. Free Wi-Fi runs throughout, including the lobby.

200 metres from the main terminal, a five-minute walk, and 40 miles from central London. The bus station and the railway station, with its connections to central London and Cambridge, are both within walking distance. On-site parking costs £22 per day.
