Land at 18:10 from NCL (potentially with a bag to collect), then fly at mid day the next day.
Given the lack of transport options to/from this hotel would I likely make it there in time for happy hour in the lounge (is it even open again yet?)?

Trying to decide if it's worth the premium just to check it out, for references prices are as follows:
T5 - £104
T4 - £97
HGI T2 - £117
HGI Hatton Cross - £68.
As you can see there is an uplift for all hotels over Hatton Cross.
hi

I would probably call the hotel for a number of a local taxi firm ( Windsor cars?) .it is about £20 each way iirc

The hotel site suggests the lounge is open ( not sure of the current offerings) but the fitness centre and pool is closed for maintenance during October as is mr todiwalas restaurant.
although I do like the t5 rooms I would probably not stay there with the closed fitness centre as I like to work out
I would probably go with the t4 hilton give your timings
I had a short overnight stay in heathrow in mid September so went with the hgi t2

Regards

Tbs
