About this hotel
Courtyard by Marriott London Heathrow Airport leads with a view most airport hotels cannot offer: runway-facing rooms where the aircraft themselves become part of the stay. The warmly decorated interiors avoid the cold, functional feel of many transit hotels, and Harlington Corner (Stop E) is three minutes' walk from the door, putting the eight-minute public transport ride to Heathrow Airport within easy reach without a taxi. Two restaurants and a gym cover most of what a guest needs without leaving the building, useful on a short turnaround between flights. For an evening out, The Pheasant Inn & Restaurant Heathrow, an over-18s venue, is seven minutes away by taxi, a change of scene from the airport hotel routine. This 4-star property works for travellers happy to watch the runway rather than the city skyline.

Our take
Courtyard by Marriott London Heathrow Airport suits travellers who actually want to watch the runway, plus anyone who values a three-minute walk to Harlington Corner (Stop E) over a taxi for the eight-minute public transport ride to Heathrow Airport. The two restaurants and gym cover a short stay well. Families travelling with children should note that The Pheasant Inn & Restaurant Heathrow nearby is an over-18s venue, so that particular option is off the table for a family evening out.
- Ask for a runway-facing room when booking directly, since that view is the hotel's clearest advantage over nearby properties.
- Walk the three minutes to Harlington Corner (Stop E) for the eight-minute public transport ride rather than booking a taxi to Heathrow Airport.
- Skip The Pheasant Inn & Restaurant Heathrow if travelling with children, since it is an over-18s venue seven minutes away by taxi.
Why we love it
- Runway-view rooms right by the airfield
- Two restaurants inside the hotel
- A gym for a short workout between flights
- Harlington Corner Stop E three minutes away
Why guests love itI would pick the Courtyard by Marriott London Heathrow Airport for families with plane-spotting children, because some rooms look straight out over the runway. Harlington Corner (Stop E) is a three-minute walk, and the public transport ride to Heathrow takes about eight minutes. Two restaurants and a gym sit on site, so dinner is easy. The Pheasant Inn nearby is an over-18s venue, so I would plan the family evening at the hotel.
