Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T4 by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"I was looking for a modestly priced airport hotel for one night between connecting flights near Terminal 4 at LHR that was clean, quiet, and safe, Holiday Inn Express met and exceeded my expectations. A raised walkway from the Terminal leads directly to the hotel, a few hundred metres away. I asked for and was given a quiet room. The room was modern, clean, and had everything needed. Bathroom excellent. A good night's sleep, and a better than expected complimentary breakfast. Transit to downtown London is available via the Elizabeth Line or the London subway -- both within walking distance. Connecting to other LHR terminals is easy via the free Elizabeth Line shuttle or a better bus shuttle that costs GBP 7. All in all, the hotel was excellent value, and I would not hesitate to stay there again."
