Raddison Hotel is actualy in the terminal, 10 mins walk from most diretions but its expensive, last time I stayed it was something like £150 a night but it is convenient

I can say do not use or trust the Clayton Hotel. On one of our trips to the UK we were arriving in the early hours ie around 2-30. I booked, and paid for, a room. I phoned before leaving cyprus to tell them we would be there but not until around 3am.
When we had collected our luggage I rang for the hotel mini bus to collect us and 10 minutes later we were at the hotel reception desk..
Sorry we have No Rooms I was told... I said to the receptionist, that I had a room already booked and paid for... We Have No Rooms I was told again ... You can make yourself comfortable on the settees in the lounge, with the other people ...
It turned out that there was a Manchester United Match on during the previous evening and they had sold our room to football fans.. Unfortunately all the other hotels were full as well

Eventually I did get my money back, but nothing for the inconveience.

So, Do Not Use the Clayton Hotel

Thanks for all the imputs,we,ve decided on the Radisson.Arriving at the unearthly hours in the morning ( about 2/3 am ) a good thing is check out time is not till 12pm so can get a decent ( much needed kip ).

I've stayed twice at the Raddison and the first time had a small complaint so on my next visit they upgraded me - very nice too!
Was initially surprised when they failed to book me a taxi but understood why when the taxi ramp is virtually outside. Breakfast was very nice on both occasions - just a large buffet
