Purple Parking for T5

Hi all,

I always see rave reviews about purple parking, and I am tempted to give them a try this year.

Has anyone used them for T5, what was the transfer like? Do they take you to T5 or just the transport hub and let you take the train over.

Also has anyone parked their car there then walked to the premier inn? Then in the morning head back there for the free transfer?

Thanks

This is exactly what I plan to do next year.
Lots of people recommend doing this, so I hope there's no problem dropping the car off, going to the hotel and walking back to PP in the morning to get their bus to terminal.
I tried messaging them to ask if this was OK to do, and never got a response

Yes, always use purple parking and they go to all Heathrow terminals, leave your keys (never had an issue with my car on collection) walk down their drive way and the Premier Inn is just a couple of minutes and you're there, right next door.

The only worry I have, and I may be worrying for no reason, is walking back round to Purple Parking the next day and just getting on their shuttle bus. Do you have to tell them that's what you are doing when you drop the car off? Surely they don't just let all and sundry just get on their bus to the terminals?

For anyone wondering I have just done a live chat with Holiday Extras and they advised that it wasn’t an issue to park then walk to the premier inn. They have many people that do that, just need to make the staff aware.
