Subject: Best way to get to Gatwick Airport?

We have not taken the Hotelink to Gatwick, but our experience to Heathrow is that they make a lot of stops and take forever. We took the Gatwick Express several years ago and it worked fine. I don't have my maps handy, but you might consider taking a taxi from your hotel to the train station if you have a lot of baggage. We did that last summer, to take the Heathrow train, and it saved a lot of hauling.
