Hilton’s midscale cousin is directly connected to the terminal at Stansted Airport. Rooms here have free wi-fi and HD televisions – but if you want to look at something other than a TV screen, some rooms have direct views of the nearby runway. Those who fancy breaking a sweat during their stay should take note of the 24-hour fitness centre – a definite highlight here. You’ll find an array of cardio and resistance machines, plus weights equipment, to use. There’s no restaurant at The Hampton, but breakfast is included, with both hot and cold options.
The Hampton seems a good budget choice, if you’re just looking for a relatively no-frills roof over your head before jetting off on your hols.
