Heathrow hotel and parking

Ella-Belle · 18 Jan 20, 11:48 AM

I know these sorts of questions are asked a lot and I have searched but still struggling to make a decision.

We fly from Heathrow T2 (8.8.20) I have never been to Heathrow before so am a total novice. We need a hotel the night before we fly and 24 days parking in total.

We are a family of 5 so in guessing wherever we stay we will need 2 rooms.

Please help dibbers

We're flying from T3 at Heathrow in Aug.
We've booked 2 rooms at the Bath Street Premier Inn and have booked the Purple Parking meet and greet at T3.
Purple Parking also have a long stay car park right next door to the Premier Inn 🙂

Is your parking booked from the day you check into the premier inn? Of so how do you travel between the hotel and terminal?

We're parking the car overnight at the Premier Inn and then we'll drive to T3 the morning we fly.
There are buses that will take you from the Premier Inn to the terminals but we're a group of 6 with a suitcase each and 3 kiddies under 9.
I didnt really like the idea of lugging 6 cases and all the kids on/off the buses so we went for meet and greet.
I think the long stay Purple Parking next to the Premier Inn do a coach transfer to the terminals too!

If you want to avoid taxis or transfer buses your best bet is The Hilton Garden Inn but you will need 2 rooms.

You can do meet and greet parking by dropping car off in the terminal.

We use the PI bath road too..can be as low as �29 a night. Some dates on offer at moment too. You pay �10 to park overnight at the hotel.

The next day we go to the purple parking multistory right next door. Drop off car and keys and use the purple parking minibus to the airport. Very short transfer to T2.

On return - Easy Minibus back to parking and collect keys off we go.

Hotel well located and sound proofed. Have been doing this for years.

We did look into Hilton garden Inn but we had to get a minibus to/from the parking anyway and the rooms were about 100 more each for our dates.

We booked direct with Heathrow got a hotel & official parking in Terminal 2/3 Long stay for same price as just parking, we didn�t want to use a hotel car park, Hubbie quite fussy, it�s the Leonardo on Bath Road, we used Holiday Inn Aerial before, all good & just over Road from car park too
