Where to park when staying at an airport hotel the night before a flight

jp1233

Good afternoon, 
As the title suggests really. I’m going on holiday from Heathrow airport. Normally, if not staying at a hotel, I would book airport parking and get the shuttle bus to the terminal. However, if staying at he hotel what do people do, what’s the easiest option? Car park for the hotel and then move the car the next morning? Seems a hassle. 

Also, best hotel for terminal 3?

Depends on the hotel & carpark location. If I was using an on-airport hotel ie walkable to the airport I'd just park at the airport carpark the night before. If the hotel is off airport and has a carpark they may do stay & park deals.

Book a hotel with parking for your length of stay included.

I'm staying at the Raddison at Manchester airport in a few months as I have a early flight, and just booked one of their airport car parks seperately, arriving a day before the flight. Will walk from the car park into T1 and then over the walkway to the hotel. 

Surely you can do the same at LHR.

We did this a few years ago at LHR. Booked two nights accommodation (the night before and upon our return) which included parking on site for the whole time we were away, hotel didn’t even ask to keep our keys so no chance of our car being used whilst we were away or that the terminal car park had burnt down 😄 It even worked out cheaper than booking a hotel and separate parking and the terminal transport bus was included. Although we’d paid for the return night, there was nothing to say we had to stay as we could simply have packed the car and left. In our case the flight was back fairly late so we chose to stay over. Believe it was the Radisson Blu, can’t remember the other hotel.
