Bloc Hotel Gatwick – What I Loved
Amazing to be able to lay in bed and see the runway. We also loved being able to step out of the hotel and be in the airport.
Bloc Hotel Gatwick
Professional Traveller Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐
This hotel is super handy being right in the Gatwick Airport South terminal next to departures. You’ve got all the airport facilities on your doorstep. It’s handy for long layovers and they also do day-use options for daytime layovers too.
