We stay at the Copthorne Effingham several times a year either prior to or on return from holidays and business meetings and use their car parking facility. Although we’ve been using this hotel for quite a few years, I haven’t written a Tripadvisor report on it before as we only stay for one night at a time, but I think... More

I booked this through lastminute.com as a 'secret hotel' as a stopover for an early flight from Gatwick. The description was excellent and I was looking forward to a few hours of luxury. My room smelt of damp and mildew, and was so outdated I thought I was in a 70's TV drama. The cushions on the bed smelt of... More

I don't generally have particularly high expectations when looking for a hotel. I just look for clean, comfortable rooms and sevice with a smile. Unfortunately the copthorne had none of the above. The rooms were decorated in a similar fashion to my gran's spare room. The carpet was worn through to the bedding, the cabinets were broken with no doors,... More

We booked this hotel as an overnight stopover before catching our flight the next morning and received special rates. We eventually reached the Copthorne after attempting to book in at its sister hotel of the same name, which was nearby. So, make sure that stop at the correct branch, as many people make this mistake. All members of staff at... More

Well first of all I must say we only paid about £50 including Breakfast and having read previous reviews knew what to expect. On check in about 7:30pm in the evening they admitted they hadn't put the cot in our room that had been requested...annoying as our daughter was already asleep in the car. They did sort it quickly though.... More

for a 4 star hotel this falls short on cleanliness and decor. The service was good, the food excellent, the bed-sumptuous and the view from our room - stunning! a great pity then that the window itself was filthy and the radiator under the window was thick with dust and cobwebs.
