    Which one? There are 2 in Premier Inns in Bath Road.
    The one nearest T5 (420 Bath Road) is served by a free TfL bus.
    2.22kWp Solar PV system installed Oct 2010, Fronius IG20 Inverter, south facing (-5 deg), 30 degree pitch, no shading
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end
    MFW #4 OPs: 2018 £866.89, 2019 £1322.33, 2020 £1337.07
    2021 £1250.00, 2022 £1500.00, 2023 £1500, 2024 £1350
    2025 target = £1200, YTD £9190

    I think you can almost get to the other Bath Rd PI on a free flow bus too? At least, I'm planning on giving that a whirl on 24/12.

    On google maps it looks just across the road and a few hundred yards' walk (which will be nothing compared to where we will have already dragged suitcases from).

    If anyone knows different, please say!!!

    The green tinted area shows the Free zone
    15 Bath Rd is the yellow circle with '8' in

    We've stayed there a couple of times, used Hoppa buses both times. First time was ok, second time was a nightmare. We stay at the other one now as it is closer to T5.

    I like this site for LHR hotels...and it has a map with bus stops as well.

    http://www.londontoolkit.com/lhr/travel_inn_lhr.htm

    http://www.londontoolkit.com/lhr/heathrow_local_buses.htm

    and I kind of hate the Hoppa bus...inevitably we get there as one is leaving and it's approximately forever until the next one...every time...but we normally stay at the HI M4/J4 and I don't think the local buses are an option...got one once to the Park Inn and it was fine and easy. We always just take a taxi to the airport the morning of our flight as I don't trust the Hoppa when I have a plane to catch. :)
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Yes, from the Holliday Inn you can get the 222 service to the Bath Road then switch to any number of the free services to the terminals. I like the Holiday Inn M4J4. The pub outside the main gate, The Plough, does excellent food at a fraction of the price of the hotel.
