London Croydon Aerodrome Hotel  

On Purley Way just off the A23, a short drive from Croydon town centre and about 12 miles from central London. East Croydon station is roughly 15 minutes by train to the West End, so London museums and theatres are easily within reach. Nearby highlights include the Former Croydon Airport Terminal, Croydon Minster and major shopping and nightlife hubs.

Housed in a 1928 aviation-era building that’s had a contemporary reboot, the hotel mixes heritage bones with a modern lobby and stylish lounge bar. Rooms are en suite and simply fitted with TV, desk, shower and hairdryer. The vibe is practical and modern — family-friendly and well suited to short breaks or business trips.

On-site brasserie, restaurant, lounge bar and a café for coffee. Free wireless internet across the property and guest parking (charges may apply). Family perks include a children’s playroom plus picnic and BBQ areas. Practical extras: laundry, dry cleaning, safe-deposit boxes and a multilingual concierge.

Fully equipped meeting, conference and banquet facilities (charges may apply) and a conference hall for events. Fast wireless internet and easy taxi or bus links to East Croydon station make it convenient for business travelers.

A brasserie-style restaurant and lounge bar serve classic local flavours, while a café keeps the coffee flowing. Expect straightforward, regional dishes in a relaxed setting — good for pre-theatre meals or family dinners before a London day trip.
