Waterloo (for EuroStar) Parking

Hi, can anyone suggest anywhere I can park for the Waterloo terminal, or even a hotel + parking deal?

    You have given no information that might help.How long do want to park for,and where are you coming from.
    Try Google-"Waterloo cheap car parking",and "Waterloo hotels",to give you some idea.
    British Car Parks charge around £10 a day at Butlers Wharf[near Tower Bridge]which is cheap for central London.However it might be cheaper to come in by cab if you are
    away for a fortnight,depending on where you live.

    I think there are two car parks off the roundabout (well, used to be) before Westminster Bridge (south of the bridge, not Parliament Square) for about £10-20 per day.

  • I should have given a bit more information: we will be travelling from Exeter and will need to park for 4/5 days.

    The cheapest I could find was £48.50 for 4.5 days-which is cheap for London.You will
    find it quoted here https://www.bcponline.co.uk .[The cab fare from there to Waterloo will be about £5 depending on the time of day].
    By the time you add the cost of parking and petrol to the rail fare,would flying from Exeter not be a similar price?

    Beware: if you are going to drive to a car park/hotel near Waterloo you will incurr the congestion charge for the day you enter and the day you leave. Thats £8 for each of those days.

    The congestion charge operates between 7am and 6.30 pm,Monday to Friday,excluding public holidays.You can avoid entering the zone if you park in Butlers Wharf,though it is a bit of a detour coming in from the West.But well worth it to evade those grasping B........s.
