Hotels with parking Heathrow T3

[fivechairs]

Hello, could anyone recommend a hotel close to Heathrow T3 (I think that's the virgin one?) , a hotel that allows you to leave car there.

I know there are loads but I've seen so many articles about these rip off airport parking scams I'm worried about being conned!

Will need to be at airport about 6am so won't need breakfast at hotel , it's just somewhere to sleep night before flight. Flying in March.

Thank you

Bumping as I found your post as I am looking for one too @fivechairs. We are looking for July and ideally not too expensive!

T3 is in the Central area so you are not going to get anything within a mile or two of the terminal.

TBH and AFAIK there aren’t many hotels close to Heathrow that lets you park in the actual hotel car park for days on end, the closest I know of that used to do it is the Thistle Hotel on the Bath Road…but that used to get slightly mixed reviews when it came to the hotel itself.

The Thistle hotel is still doing Stay, Park & Fly, according to its website

We stayed there one night and parked for a fortnight 18 months ago. Couldn't see anything wrong with the hotel.

Thanks for the update.

It was a bit of a “Marmite” place in my time working at the airport, some who used it liked it, some who used it didn’t, for reasons various, but that’s now a while back and I’m sure it’s much improved..

Just a thought but if your aim is to park your car yourself on airport and for it not to move until you come back (not unreasonable) then one option would be to use Heathrow’s Airport’s own on-site Long Term Parking and then get to your chosen hotel on one of the shuttle buses.

That would even give you the option of using the Central Area Hotel (?hotels plural, I’ve lost track) overnight, pre-flight and then walking to T3 in the morning

It’s not going to be the cheapest way of doing things but it might tick the required boxes.
