JerseyGetting to the hotel from the LGW North Terminal was easier than I expected - from the only online info I could find beforehand, I expected a 5 min walk via the access roads. It was actually barely 3mins by pedestrian-only access via the car park or the access tunnel. (The general direction of the Sofitel & Premier Inn are quite well signed within the terminal, but I didn't find the covered access until the morning after I arrived.) When I was checking out, the concierge (in contrast to my receptionist!) was very friendly & helpful, offering to get, & successfully ordering a taxi to take me to central London. The room itself was attractive and quiet, & the bed looked very inviting & comfy. It was!
