Parking at the hotel
Parking at the hotel lets you break up your journey to the airport and often save money compared to booking airport parking separately. Several hotels around Heathrow Terminal 2 have on-site car parks included in their APH packages.
At the Holiday Inn Heathrow Bath Road, for example, you park your car overnight at the hotel before your flight. On departure day, you use the Heathrow Hoppa bus service - arranged at reception on arrival - to travel to the terminal. You take the same bus back on your return to collect your car.
Off-site secured parking
If your hotel does not offer on-site parking for your full trip, you will use an off-site secured car park. These car parks have round-the-clock CCTV and staffing, and a transfer bus service to take you to the terminal at set intervals.
The Mercure Heathrow, for example, uses Heathrow’s Drivefly secure car park off the M4. On the day of your flight, you drive to the Drivefly Park & Ride facility, leave your keys with the team, then take the transfer bus to the terminal (15–20 minutes). The process is reversed on your return.

“Great set-up with APH. The park under the hotel was seamless - check in, sleep, catch your flight. Breakfast from 06:00 covers early departures well.”
“A little in need of refurbishment but the staff were brilliant. Location good for Terminal 4. Parking at the front desk and QR codes in the car park handled with no fuss.”
“Easy to find, 10 minutes from Terminal 2/3. Clean room, good bed. Would stay again.”
“The hotel doesn’t include a terminal transfer - the Hoppa bus costs extra and wasn’t made clear at booking. Food quality and room condition were below expectations.”
“Room was double the usual standard. Good dinner and breakfast. Would rate it better than many IHG properties I’ve stayed at.”
“Clean, tidy room. Ideal for any traveller flying from T5. Would use again.”
“An ideal base for overnighting before an early departure. Room was small but had everything needed. Just check the drinks prices at the bar before ordering.”
“Very good hotel, great location and food.”
“Efficient, friendly staff. Would recommend to every family flying from T5.”
