Good value parking & hotel for Heathrow?

Looking for one of these where you get a weeks parking and a nights accommodation all at one place near Heathrow airport. I usually go from Gatwick but am having to switch to the dreaded Heathrow now.

Not really requesting a deal as I am not looking to book yet - just interested in which hotels ppl reccommend.

cheers

    I always use www.pinewoodhotel.co.uk/ it costs me about £120 for 1 nights accommodation and 3 weeks parking, including taxis to and from the airport, not sure if its going to be the cheapest option for 1 weeks parking though.
  • We got a £19 deal at Travelodge Heathrow... big room, clean, not luxury but good enough. Hotel Hopper bus took you to and from the terminal, £4 each way. Not sure about parking though.

    Not a package but go to Quidco, Virgin Atlantic & Airport Parking - check out their prices for parking and also for parking and meet & greet. Our meet/greet (17 days)worked out at £80 (cheaper than parking only)and just had £12 cashback from Quidco.

    There's also a link on the VA website for heathrow hotels - haven't checked these out though as we're getting up early and driving there on the morning.

  • thx for the replies. It is specifically the all in deal I was looking for as I will have to drive from London to Glasgow the day after the flight and I will need a nights rest bnefore do that trek.
  • Your best bet is to use one of the agents like
    www.holidayextras.co.uk
    They sometimes do a cheap 4star un-named hotel deal, if you look at the description and compare it with the named hotels you can usually identify the hotel in the deal. Deals usually include 8 or 15 day parking and you can normally extend at a daily charge. There is sometimes also a 21 day parking deal at one or two hotels.

    Other agents offering parking exclusive deals include:
    www.aph.com
    www.parkandgo.co.uk
    www.fhr-net.co.uk
    www.superbreak.co.uk

    Most of the online booking systems seem to assume a stay the night before you travel so you may need to telephone them as you want a stay after you return. If you are returning in the morning the other alternative is to look for a day rate on the hotel.

    Which terminal are you travelling from at Heathrow as most of the hotels best serve terminals 1,2 and 3. If you need terminal 4 then it may be best to look for a deal which includes parking at a parking facility rather than at the hotel so you can get a transfer to terminal 4.

    Best deals are normally available if you book early.
