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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
Hampton by Hilton London Luton Airport is a great choice if you’re flying from Luton and want something convenient and comfortable. The hotel is just a short walk from the terminal, which makes it really ideal for early morning or late-night flights.
The rooms are modern, clean, and well-maintained. Despite being so close to the airport, the soundproofing is quite good and the room felt quiet enough for a good night’s sleep. The bed was comfortable and the room had everything needed for a short stay.
Check-in was smooth and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout the stay. One nice perk is the complimentary breakfast — the selection is fairly simple but includes hot items, pastries, fruit, and coffee, which is perfect before heading to the airport.
Overall, it’s not a luxury hotel, but it’s reliable, clean, and extremely convenient for travelers flying from Luton. I’d definitely consider staying here again for an early flight.
ผผู้เข้าพักFriendly staff, good on site restaurant and bar. The room was clean and comfortable. Had all i needed for an overnight stay, nice towels and toiletries. Situated in the town centre close to the bus and train station. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who needs to stay in Luton for whatever reason.

ผผู้เข้าพักVery nice hotel, staff don't go the extra mile but just enough. Had to mark down due to cracked window and poor view. Close to being 5 out of 5 but I'm gonna give it a 4.5 cos it was nice and I only looked out of the window on arrival
