yep, very simple. i have just booked my night at the PI as only £35 and refundable. Just sorting out parking just in case we are allowed to travel.

Not many places within walking distance of a terminal with parking (i dont think so anyway) as the airport is huge.

We always book Heathrow on airport short stay T3 after having bad experiences with shuttles buses in the past ,overcrowded and having to wait an hour for the next one due to traffic on more than one occasion, resulting in other passengers getting physical with each other.

This year we are booked in the short stay terminal 5, it's more expensive than long stay and or offsite but we can jump straight in the car and go so for us its is worth it.

We book on the official Heathrow parking website

If they were the same, I would remember how remarkably Prem Inn behaved in March of last year, refunding my 7 non cancellable rooms even though I never asked for them to.

In my world, that makes me very loyal.

We have booked Premier Inn for 1 night £35 and 23 nights at Purple Parking £95. We thought this was quite reasonable.

We don't normally stay overnight before a flight as we usually travel from Gatwick, which is only 25 Mins up the road from where live by the coast.

Hi, we've booked the Premier Inn for the night before. Do you book parking for the day you check in to the hotel till the date you fly back to UK with Purple Parking ? Presumably leaving your car the day of hotel check in and then get the shuttle bus in the morning?
Never flown from Heathrow before, just looking for most economic and efficient way. Thanks!
