Hotels With Breakfast in Bedfordshire, United Kingdom

Room clean and tidy. Unfortunately a couple of lights were not working in the bathroom so made for a bit of a palaver trying to shower in almost darkness.  The breakfast was good with lots of choice, sadly the coffee in the machine wasn’t of good quality and was very bitter.  The staff were very polite, friendly and professional.  Overall, would choose to stay again.

Very convenient hotel - minutes walking distance from the terminal, early breakfast, friendly staff - highly recommended, especially for early morning flights

I had a lovely big room and huge bed , which was comfortable. Large picture windows with view of river & town over the bridge next to the hotel. Room had all the usual amenities- kettle, mugs,, tea, coffee, sugar & milk. Shampoo & bodywash in bathroom, hairdryer. Box of tissues in bathroom. The bathroom has a good size cubicle and good pressure in the shower. I did not use the in house restaurant, so cannot comment. The bar was good and there was a water dispenser on the counter..Great for filling up my water bottle for the day. So lovely to walk out of the hotel and over the bridge to the town, including the excellent museums, or walk along the paths on either side of the river. Only slight downside was the route down the stairs was a bit convoluted, but there were lifts of course.

No issues checking in. Clean and tidy place. No issues with room, beds very large and comfy. It was very quiet when we stayed family of 4. I requested 2 rooms next door to each other and request fulfilled. Water pressure excellent for showers. Have pool sauna, gym, unfortunately we didn't try these facilities. Do check breakfast times, we thought breakfast was served until 11am but was mistaken. Got to restaurant at 10am and were closed. Luckily, a staff member from reception managed to get us some pastries and yogurts, very kind! Accommodation is within the Cranfield University campus and near Cranfield Airport.

I am David Lee from Hong Kong, Luton Town fans before we are in the Premier League. The location of Thistle Express Luton is just 10 minutes walk from the station, and the exit of the hotel, would you believe it is just a minute walk from Luton Point, their main shopping mall! There are KFC and McDonalds in there which you are no longer to use UBER Eat to pay extra, also there are TESCO Express which you can buy drink and fast food there. The Thistle Express Luton hotel lobby provide free breakfast, tea and coffee, and you can use microwave, so you can save lots of money on lunch and dinner.

Friendly staff and very convenient for an early flight The staff at the hotel are exceptionally friendly and helpful. When I first checked in, I realised I had accidentally booked an accessible room — which was enormous and very, very clean. However, because it had a connecting door, someone in the neighbouring room tried to open their side, which completely startled me. When I went downstairs to mention it, the staff didn’t hesitate at all. They immediately offered to move me to another room where I wouldn’t have the anxiety of hearing someone try the connecting door. It was clearly very safe, but I really appreciated how quickly and kindly they responded. I had dinner at the hotel restaurant — the food was fairly average and a little on the expensive side, although the atmosphere was lively and, again, the staff were very friendly. One downside is that the walls seem quite thin. Around 12:30am a group checked in and were talking loudly in the corridor for about half an hour, which woke me up. If you’re a light sleeper, I’d recommend bringing earplugs. In fairness, I didn’t call reception at the time — and based on how helpful they were earlier, I suspect they would have dealt with it quickly. Checking out was easy, and I walked to the airport in the morning. It’s actually a very straightforward walk — especially once you get past the roundabout and go under the road. I’d definitely recommend this hotel if you have an early flight from Luton.

All good, except overpriced.

The staff is friendly and welcoming. The hotel equipped with a smart large screen of TV in the room. The hotel is within a walking distance from the airport, around 10 to 15 minutes walk. There is a bus available from the opposite the hotel to the airport. However, on the day of my travel, the bus did not turn up. The toilet stink and I found blood stain on the bedsheet.

Even though the facilities are a bit old, the room was very clean and spacious, and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was also quite good. The only downside was that planes started flying overhead constantly from around 6 AM, which made it a bit noisy.

Great location for a early escape to Luton airport or late flight in. Have used them a few times because they have the best food on site compared to other local hotels so I find them the best overall value and experience. Reception staff very helpful and offering room close to lift or quieter away from it. Pleasant room and good value for money. Highlight is their breakfast, incredible buffet breakfast and the top choice if you have a late flight arrival and time to stay and enjoy it in the morning.
