Quiet Comfort in the Heart of Heathrow Terminal 5

TripAdvisor rating 5.0/5

rda-dev TripAdvisor review

We stayed at the Sofitel Hotel located directly in Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport for one night after a flight. We were traveling with my wife and our 5-year-old daughter. The room was clean and well maintained — overall, we really liked it. Special respect for the soundproofing. Honestly, I’ve never seen windows this thick anywhere before. Considering this is an airport hotel, the room was surprisingly quiet and very comfortable. The curtains were great, and the blackout curtains helped a lot — it made adjusting to the new time zone much easier after the flight. The 12:00 check-out time is very convenient. It allows you to wake up calmly in the morning, relax, and enjoy breakfast at the restaurant without rushing. In my opinion, the breakfast is a bit overpriced — more than £30 per person for not a huge variety. The selection itself is generally fine, but there was one downside: the vegetables and spinach leaves were not properly washed. I would recommend that the chef or responsible staff pay closer attention to controlling this. I’d also like to highlight the service in the restaurant. We were served by a waitress named Theresa, who was very friendly, attentive, and genuinely made our breakfast more pleasant with her attitude. Overall, it’s an excellent option for an overnight stay at the airport — quiet, comfortable, and very convenient, especially after a long flight.

Minimum wage staff and £19.50 for a glass of wine 🙄

£19.50 for a glass of Malbec 😬 You pay your staff minimum wage. Until recently they got no tips until the law required. Ashamed you’re not but you really should be.

Great service

Good But Not Perfect

Peter M TripAdvisor review

An upmarket, comfortable hotel that is adjacent to T5 at Heathrow. It has a lot going for it, but also it could do better. The starting point is the approach to the car park. On a dark, rainy night, the signposting was inadequate. Despite two pairs of eyes and GPS instructions, we missed it first time round and went through the bus/coach lanes. Even second time round, the signs were hard to see, and we weren’t the only cars backing up. Nothing much changed inside the complex, but we did eventually find our way into the car park. Inside the hotel, reception was busy and slow. There was a steady queue of people and only two receptionists. We had checked in on-line, but that did not speed up the process. Our room was comfortable and spacious. Minor grumbles: no charging points near the bed; no hot or cold labels on the bathroom sink taps; lighting controls that were a triumph of technology/design over function - fiddly to operate. We ate in the Sphere Bar where the staff were excellent, food good, wine over-priced - a bottle of Viognier at £40 which is probably a four times mark up. The walk from reception to T5 was longer than anticipated and brings you out at the parking level where we have previously left our car for valet parking. Could have stayed at an off airport hotel and had airport parking for less money and shorter walks.

Fabulous Service !

May I please thank you for your incredible service from Ivan (security manager) and checking staff on Tuesday Dec 16th. We admittedly arrived just a bit earlier than expected and were very kindly given the most fabulous room. I was hoping that the general manager is informed just how happy my wife and I were with our stay. We’ve stayed quite a lot over the past few years and always delighted. Absolutely wonderful ! Mr C King

Dear Mr. King, Thank you for your gracious feedback and continued loyalty to Sofitel London Heathrow. We are delighted to know your stay was wonderful. It is a pleasure to hear that our security and reception teams helped make your visit memorable, and we will ensure their efforts are recognised. Your compliments reflect our commitment to gracious service and exceptional comfort. We look forward to welcoming you and your wife back for another delightful stay. Kind regards Mohammed Serhan Hotel Manager
