Functional hotel very close to the airport. It’s starting to look a little dated now and the rooms could do with a bit of renovation. I got dropped off by a family member who was fined/charged for dropping me outside without announcing herself.

The hotel room was very dated, and looks like it needs a refurbishment, however the bed was comfortable, the room was quiet and the shower was good which is all you need for an overnight stay for an early flight!

We didn’t have dinner here, but had a very average, overpriced cheesecake in the bar. We also had drinks in the bar which were pricey but probably to be expected at an airport hotel.

The hotel is also very close (5 min walk) to the terminal which was very handy. If I have an early flight again from Stansted I would definitely book here again.

Very happy I booked to stay here before our holiday, we came by public transport and it’s an easy walk from the drop off point. The large bed was very comfy and the room had aircon.
We ate at the main restaurant and I liked the bar / restaurant layout, everything felt open and there was a relaxed atmosphere. The staff were great, friendly and very welcoming. I did use the pool and steam room, but towels are not given out at the pool / gym reception. I understand that they are available from the main reception. Not a problem but good to know before you head down there. Would happily stay there again.

Walking distance to the airport so very convenient for an early flight next morning. Efficient check-in. Nice room, spotlessly clean. Bed comfortable and good lighting which is not always expected in a hotel. On check-in I asked for a room with a bathtub but apparently most have them anyway. Good soundproofing, we didn't hear much from planes or other guests. Not much of a view but we didn't mind as only there one night and we didn't pay the extra for a runway view.
Didn't have breakfast but did have dinner in the Collage restaurant. Had fish and chips which was very nice, if a tad overpriced but then you are a captive audience.
My only negative comment would be that on checking out, the person that was there looked clearly unwell and was wearing a mask. In my view this poor girl should have been sent home to recover for her own wellbeing and also not to risk passing on germs to people going on long awaited holidays.

Avoid this hotel at all costs!

The hotel itself was quite clean people were clearing up all the time staff at breakfast were very polite and reception extremely helpful, rooms were very basic and a little tired, food in the morning at breakfast was okay absolutely nothing fancy just complete basic food, eggs bacon beans cereal and it was the same every day but that’s as far as I can go,
to be honest from somebody that stopped at many hotels before I will never stop here again,
night staff extremely rude to guests to the point. I nearly called the police on them how they were treating one of the other guests there kicking the door in and where one of the guest guests with videoing him abusing one of the other guests trying to snatch the phone out of their iPad out of their hand, threatening for girls that they wouldn’t return back to their rooms unless they deleted the video, this is not how you treat guests at all. I will never stop here again whilst I’ve got breath in my lungs, extremely noisy at night and that doesn’t even cut half of it. I’d avoid this hotel at all costs.

Radisson are a top brand. The room was OK but a little dated. The bed was at an angle and the TV was on the wall to the left of the bed so it’s not possible to view the TV properly. The carpet was a little worn. The aircon is outdated and doesn’t work properly. The room was 23 c when it was 33c outside. The maintenance man said it was working ok - clearly not.

Clean and comfortable room with a very cosy bed. Staff throughout the hotel were friendly and welcoming. It would have been helpful to be informed of the parking charges beforehand.

Dinner was average, although the service from the team was excellent. Breakfast was much better, with plenty of options available. The bar was a nice space, and it was great to have access to watch the World Cup games.

The swimming pool, sauna and steam room were all good, but the lockers were difficult to use and it seemed many guests were struggling with them too.

Overall, a comfortable stay with great staff, good facilities, and just a few areas that could be improved.

Had requested an accessible room but we’re give one with standard facilities meaning my wife could not have a shower as this would have meant climbing over the side of the bath.
Had no issue with this on our last stay as had a fully accessible room with wet room features.
As we were only there for an overnight stay prior to an early flight, did not complain, but it wasn’t ideal for her not to be able to shower given the hot weather.

Despite its location this is not an airport hotel. I stay at multiple airport hotels during my work for their flexibility including this one previously. Due to cost cutting this hotel has no flexibility. Only one check in desk open despite a queue before midnight, the bar was closed and the only offering was an extremely poor limited room service offering.
In the morning things were even worse, the breakfast offering was pitiful and despite people still queuing to enter at 9:50 the cook refused to fry more eggs, despite being requested to do so by several customers. Next time I will use one of the other local hotels.

We took the train from our home in the west country to Stansted. It's an easy walk to/from the train station in the airport although it could have done with some signage (took a bit to find). We were nicely greeted by the desk staff upon arrival and checked in quickly. We dropped the luggage in the room and headed down to get some dinner. The hostess and wait staff were great as was the pizza we shared.
Our negatives for this hotel were two fold.
1) Just because your clients are a \"captive audience\" doesn't mean you have to charge an exorbitant amount for drinks and food!
2) Our room carpet was dirty and worn, literally torn and threadbare outside the bathroom!
Luckily, like most of their guests probably, we were there for less than 12 hours in anticipation of an early morning flight. We will stay there again if needed for an early morning flight, but just make certain to grab dinner before we arrive.

We go back to Radisson at Stansted over and over again due to its proximity to the terminal (very quick walk) but the positives stop there and this time I find myself wondering why, as repeat customers (we must book a room at least 5 or 6 times a year), we were assigned a horribly tired and dated disabled room with terrible shower water pressure and no ability to adjust the temperature. The room was warm, the air conditioning poor, and with no ability to open the windows for air! All for a pricely sum to boot !

Waited 20 mins for an omelette which lacked some of the ingredients requested. Stupid queuing at the bar instead of using all of it - one line across the whole foyer. Not geared up for good service. Aircon is noisy even when switched off noise comes through the vents

I left my purse in the drawer, of quite sentimental value as had been bought for me on another holiday and contained about 50 euros. Realised once I’d gone through security in at the airport next door, Phoned hotel several times about an hour after I’d checked out, no answer. My husband phoned different numbers there was no way to talk to a human at the desk, Emailed reception immediately, so someone could go to the room before housekeeping would even get in there( we left at 6am) it took 2 days for a reply!!! and all that said was they would pass my email on to housekeeping. Nobody has been in touch since. Obviously if there first response took 2 days I don’t suppose it would even be worth looking by then. Very poor response and communication, well basically none.

The Airport was closer to the reception than our room was.

If you don't like heights, beware you get out of the lift & you can see straight down to reception & you have to walk along a fairly narrow part with glass on both sides, again looking down until you get into the part of the building with the rooms.

Food is typical for around an airport average at best & overpriced.

Next time, to hell with it, I will leave home at 03.00, at least I will get a decent meal the night before.

The staff was great especially Arun at the bar who did his best to make me smile after the pool fiasco and helped other staff understand orders. He’s management material. . It is very easy to walk to the airport but the stated pool closing hour was as 8 which is early. I went down at 7:40 and was told that it was too late to get in, last in is7:30 but no one said. After a very hot day walking in London, I was not happy. Also, you can’t charge food to your room so I needed to go back to my room and get a card.
