Compare 5 airports near Farnborough
Choosing the right airport for your trip to Farnborough depends heavily on your budget, flight origin, and patience for travel transitions. For most international travelers, Heathrow Airport (LHR) is the clear winner; it is the closest to Farnborough and serves as a major international hub with the most efficient transport links. If you are flying within Europe, London City Airport (LCY) offers an exceptionally convenient experience for business travelers, though it is located in the nearby city of London and requires a transfer through the city to reach Farnborough. London Gatwick Airport (LGW) is another major international gateway in a neighboring city, offering a good balance of airline choices but requiring a longer commute. London Luton Airport (LTN) and London Stansted Airport (STN) primarily serve budget carriers and are located significantly further away in nearby cities, often making them the least practical options unless you find a substantial fare discount. For a seamless experience, prioritize LHR to minimize total travel time.

Great location but no parking facilities. Premier inn next door and Sainsbury’s, McDonald’s, shopping mall within 5 mins walk. High security, everyone needs to provide ID, and they charge a one pound fee when check in but doesn’t seems like it refundable. Room is nice and cozy, bathroom a bit worn and no shower gel refilled. Overall, it’s comfy for a night stay.FromUS$78

New Year's Eve Party
We booked an overnight stay at the #Aviator to celebrate New Year's Eve. We were upgraded to an airside view room with breathtaking views of the runway.
The room was airy and big.
We requested a fridge in our room and a carafe of water which was supplied to us. The room had a powerful rain shower which was so needed after hours of dancing! The bed was comfy and the TV was super easy to use
We did not avail breakfast this time but did go to the excellent sky bar for some yummy cocktails!
Room came with iron, hairdryer, safe, USB sockets, tra and coffee facilities (cafetiere coffee) with option to request fresh milk.
We will certainly be back!FromUS$137
