Mercure Hotel Gatwick Airport
Mercure Hotel Gatwick Airport

The Mercure Hotel Gatwick is a large six floor hotel situated less than a mile and just north from the terminal complex. (See Gatwick Hotel Map at bottom of page).

Until recently the Mercure Gatwick was the Renaissance Gatwick, which was one of the nicest 4 star hotels on Gatwick Airport. Many of the services and facilities of such opulence have stopped with the Mercure but the basic hotel and rooms were built to 4 star standards with spacious public areas.


The Hotel is part of a cluster of three hotels including the Holiday Inn and Best Western Moat House Hotel. A petrol station sells basic commodities opposite.

A 20 minute walk will take you into the neighbouring town, Horley, a sizable residential town with pubs, restaurants and fast food. Also walkable is a large Tesco supermarket.
