gatwick hotel and parking

hi, have been looking at parking at Euro CarPark Gatwick South, but they have a few bad reviews (spread over a long period) i understand that its easier for people to complain/write bad reviews, especially about a car park, rather than good - but does any one have any good experiences of parking here and having their car, scratch free, in the same place etc... :)

it is a good price and very convenient rather than getting shuttle bus etc...

    No idea but have you looked at the likes of JustPark?

    I mostly use them for Airport stays.

    There canbe some good bargains.

    I've found a joint hotel + parking is generally cheaper than buying just parking. The title seems to suggest they are looking for hotel and parking?

    If I go Heathrow (without a night), I will book somewhere from JustPark and do recommend it. At Gatwick, I just use the official parking as it's cheap (compared to Heathrow!)

    I generally use HolidayExtras to book a hotel + parking.
  • Choose a station at a nice spot somewhere between Gatwick and Brighton.
    Drive to the nearest decent-looking street or estate with free parking.
    Stroll back to station and catch next train to Gatwick.
    Do the reverse on return journey.
    I've been doing this for 30 years,never had even the slightest scratch on the car and saved thousands of pounds in car parking charges.
