The most popular airport hotels at the UK regionals
15.10.05
Each month our website sponsor - www.airport-hotels-guide.co.uk, the UK's leading airport hotels price comparison website - add up all of their UK airport hotels bookings, and produce a list of the most popular hotels at each of the UK's large and small airports. After lots of page views of their Gatwick and Heathrow lists, we thought that we would give this list a wider audience this month too - because it gives a lot of information in addition to which hotel is the most popular.
The most popular airport hotels in September were:
Aberdeen Airport: in all of the 9 months of the year to date the Britannia Hotel Aberdeen Airport has been the most popular hotel. There are other hotels at aberdeen airport, including the Holiday Inn Hotel Aberdeen Airport, Marriott Hotel Aberdeen Airport and the Thistle Hotel Aberdeen Airport, but people who book with airport-hotels-guide.co.uk prefer the Britannia.
Belfast Airport: for the last 4 months the on airport Park Plaza Hotel Belfast Airport (formerly the Fitzwilliam) has held the top spot from the leader first 5 months of this year - the Hilton Templepatrik Hotel Belfast. The Park Plaza is much more of an 'airport hotel' than the Hilton Templepatrick. It is only 50 metres from the terminal, but the exceptional facilities at the Templepatrik (leisure facilities, a golf course and even it's own fishing) make this a popular choice too.
Birmingham Airport: the numbers for the most popular hotels at birmingham airport for September month are on this birmingham airport hotels page.
Bristol Airport: as in the last 8 months, the Town and Country Hotel Bristol Airport, which is the closest hotel to the airport and offers a 'with free parking' package, continued to beat off competition from the Days Inn Hotel Bristol (which also offers 'free' airport parking) and the Jurys Inn Hotel Bristol (which doesn't).
Cardiff Airport: as in the last 8 months, the Days Inn Hotel Cardiff Airport remains the top, with January's number 1, the Airlodge Cardiff Airport, in second place.
East Midlands Airport: The Express Holiday Inn Hotel East Midlands Airport took top spot in April and has retained it ever since. As last month, March's top hotel, the 4 star Hilton Hotel East Midlands Airport was 2nd with the Thistle Hotel East Midlands Airport, which had been top for the first 2 months of the year, 3rd. The Kegworth Whitehouse Hotel East Midlands Airport was 4th with the hotels in these same places on a year to date basis.
Edinburgh Airport: for the first 3 months of the year it was a 2 horse race for top spot between the on airport Hilton Hotel Edinburgh Airport and the almost on airport Quality Hotel Edinburgh Airport, with the Marriott Hotel Edinburgh Airport a close 3rd. However, for the last 6 months the Quality was at the top by a clear margin, with the Marriott and Hilton fighting for 2nd and 3rd. The Capital Hotel Edinburgh Airport, which is slightly further away, was a less popular 4th. Year to date it is the Quality, followed by the Hilton and the Marriott.
Gatwick Airport: the numbers for the most popular hotels at gatwick airport for September are on this gatwick airport hotels news page.
Glasgow Airport: the numbers for the most popular hotels at glasgow airport for September are on this glasgow airport hotels news page.
Heathrow Airport: the numbers for the most popular hotels at heathrow airport for September are on this heathrow airport hotels news page.
Leeds Bradford Airport: the Holiday Inn Hotel Leeds Bradford, the only real choice for a hotel near Leeds Bradford airport, was the most popular leeds bradford airport hotel for the 9th month running.
Liverpool Airport: as at a number of regional airports, there is only one hotel close to Liverpool Airport, the excellent Marriott South Hotel Liverpool Airport. Over the last few months APH have offered the Adephi Hotel Liverpool with parking, but this has yet to see significant bookings as it is closer to the city centre.
Luton Airport: the numbers for the most popular hotels at luton airport for September are on this luton airport hotels news page.
Manchester Airport: the numbers for the most popular hotels at manchester airport for September are on this manchester airport hotels news page.
Newcastle Airport: the Holiday Inn Hotel Newcastle Airport took top spot for the first time in 5 months in August and retained it in September, followed by the Novotel Newcastle Airport Hotel this month, then the Britannia Hotel Newcastle Airport (in August the Novotel and Britannia were the other way around). On a year to date basis the Britannia leads from the Holiday Inn, then the Novotel.
Southampton Airport: the Holiday Inn Hotel Eastleigh is the most popular hotel for Southampton airport, because it is the closest to the airport. The other hotels offered for this airport are not as close - the Park Hotel Southampton, is near the centre of the city and doesn't offer a 'with airport parking' package and the Holiday Inn Hotel Fareham, is nearer to cruise ship port (and so better for cruise passengers).
Stansted Airport: the numbers for the most popular hotels at stansted airport are on this stansted airport hotels news page.
