Holiday Inn Ariel

The three star Holiday Inn Ariel is a breath of fresh air amongst the other Heathrow Airport hotels, thanks to its impressive circular design. If you're partial to a bit of planespotting, the south-facing rooms look directly out onto the runway.

The Holiday Inn Heathrow Ariel is also surprisingly quiet despite it being 10 minutes away from the airport. Rooms are comfy and full of space to ensure you get a great night's sleep.
