Locals living near what has been described as the UK’s ‘poshest’ migrant hotel have spoken out after an expose revealed four-star luxury for asylum seekers.
Jaw-dropping footage posted online showed the inside of the hotel with four poster beds, a lavish buffet style canteen and rooms containing PlayStations and computers.
There also appeared to be evidence of drug taking, and beer cans also littered several rooms of the four-star Copthorne Hotel near Gatwick, West Sussex.
The clip filmed by a contractor called Aston Knight, who worked there between October and December 2024, has been widely shared among nearby residents who have been left livid.
Richard and Tina Shapland, who live over the road from the village green in the quintessential English village – which also has a pub, post office and golf club, expressed their outrage to the Daily Mail.
