Check availability & prices >A hotel you'll love at first sight
Courtyard by Marriott, London Gatwick Airport, is the first Gatwick hotel you see when pulling off the motorway. Its spectacular design around the titular courtyard means that the main features and amenities are within view most of the time; and there's a lot to see, whether you're watching your weight in the gym, spying on what's happening back at the office in the business centre or just surveilling your kids as they watch the planes and wonder at how they're seen and not heard - the planes that is, we can't guarantee the same with your kids.
The first hotel you see as you drive into Gatwick airport
The Courtyard by Marriott is hard to beat for sheer convenience. It's the first hotel you see as you come off the motorway and with valet parking, you just hand over your keys and check in. In the morning, it's just a few minutes on the transfer bus to the South terminal. If you're coming to Gatwick by car, this is the easiest, quickest place to park and spend the night.
Have been using Holiday Extras many times over many years and always been completely satisfied with the service provided. Score 9/10. Would have given the usual 10/10 but for a member of staff messing about with the car stereo and leaving a chocolate bar wrapper stuffed in the driver's door pocket.

An eye of the storm in the middle of a busy airport
You're so close to the runway that, from your soundproofed Marriott hotel room, you can see the planes take off and land, but just outside the front door, you can hear the birds singing in the trees. If you want peace and quiet, a stone's throw from the boarding gates, the Courtyard is the hotel for you. Built around an open-plan lobby with a skylit atrium, the hotel has a clean, modern feel and a good range of facilities for both leisure and business travellers. Overlooking the airport runway, the planes can be seen and not heard. Thanks to the hotel's highly-effective sound insulation, noise is kept to an absolute minimum in both bedrooms and communal areas.
We recommend the Courtyard by Marriott for:
Convenience - Easy to find by car and a short bus ride from the South terminal, the Courtyard makes an incredibly-convenient start to your journey.
Parking - Not only is it easy to drive up to the Courtyard, parking is simplicity itself with our Meet and Greet service. Guests can park outside the hotel during check-in, then hand over your keys to the parking team, so an insured driver can take it to a nearby secured car park for you.
Hearty eaters - The Marriott's Cow at the Airport restaurant has a generous breakfast buffet. Choose from healthy options or a traditional English breakfast, with extra items available to order a la carte. For dinner, choose from grills, light bites, substantial, modern British main courses or the international-style hot buffet. A bar menu is available from 10am, and if you're still hungry, room service is offered from noon to 10pm, with a selection of sandwiches and grills. Kids eat free (one child under 6 per paying adult, max two per group).
Comfort and style - Rooms are spacious and well designed, with incredibly-comfortable beds, flatscreen TVs and wifi access. Even rooms overlooking the runway won't be disturbed by planes as soundproofing keeps the noise out.

Restaurant

All your food and drink can be ordered using the tablets provided on each table, and it'll be brought out to you when it's ready. You can even filter the menu by your dietary preference or allergies, so vegetarian and gluten-free dishes are easy to find.
The menu is updated over the course of the day and you can look forward to classic burgers, salads, fish and chips, as well as hearty meals like steak or lamb shank.
Bar
Open 11am to 10pm
Plenty of lagers, ales, ciders and wines are available at the bar along with soft drinks and speciality coffee, barista style. Plus you can order them directly to your table using the menu tablets.
Breakfast
6am to 10am on weekdays. 6.30am to 10.30am on weekends
Breakfast is served in the restaurant. It's a big old buffet with everything you need out of a full English, including hash browns, tomatoes, bacon and sausages. You can have your eggs made to order too if you fancy an omelette.
There are continental options too – think cheese, cold cuts and even fish, along with pastries, cakes, cereal and toast.
Plus there's an entire free-from section featuring dairy-free milk and yoghurts, and gluten-free cereal and bread. There's even a separate toaster to avoid contamination.
And if you're in a rush there are biodegradable takeaway coffee cups so you can grab a drink to go.
One child under 12 eats breakfast for free with each paying adult.
Things to do
The hotel has a fitness centre which is free for guests to use. It has treadmills, free weights, a rowing machine as well as exercise bikes.
Sustainability
The hotel aims to achieve net zero by 2040, supported by eco-friendly practices like refillable toiletries, encouraging guests to reuse their towels, and more sustainable food options like plant-based meals.
Instead of a taxi you can reduce your carbon footprint by walking from the hotel to the South Terminal in just 10 minutes, or the Gatwick Hoppa will get you to both terminals. The hotel is also committed to waste recycling and being a living wage employer.
Good to know
There's a vending machine in the reception area with all the travel essentials you might have forgotten, including travel adaptors, power packs and chargers.
