Gatwick Hotel Parking & Transfer Options

When you stay overnight at Gatwick before your flight, you have a choice of hotels as well as a choice of parking. You might prefer to park your car at the hotel where you are staying, or you might be looking for the most economical option, where you park your car in an off-airport parking facility for the duration of your trip and take a transfer to the terminal. Whatever your requirements, we can help you find the right Gatwick hotel and parking package.

1. Parking at the hotel

There are several Gatwick hotels with parking on-site, including the 4* Hilton London Gatwick, which is just minutes away from the South Terminal via a covered walkway. Or you could pair a stay at the Hilton with the great-value, off-airport APH Car Park, which provides free transfers to and from the South Terminal, a two to three-minute walk from the hotel.

2. Off-site secured parking

If you are looking for the most economical parking option, there are several off-airport car parks located a short distance from the terminals. The way this works is that you drive to the hotel and park there overnight. Some hotels charge an overnight parking fee but others, such as the 4* Holiday Inn Gatwick Worth, offer free overnight parking. In the morning you drive to the off-airport parking facility that you have booked, park your car, and take the free shuttle transfer to the terminal. The 4* Holiday Inn Gatwick Worth is the perfect pairing with our APH Car Park, which is located just up the road from the hotel.

APH’s car parks at Gatwick hold the Police-approved Park Mark Safer Parking Award, which means they provide a safe environment for both vehicles and customers and are managed and maintained to appropriate levels. Each secure car park features entry and exit barriers, CCTV, 24-hour staff, security lighting and perimeter fencing.

3. Meet and Greet

For the ultimate in convenience, you can’t beat an approved Meet & Greet parking service. You simply drive to the terminal, where you drop your car with your Meet & Greet operator who will drive it to a secure parking facility, while you check in for your flight. Meet & Greet parking can be paired with an airport hotel stay, to provide the ultimate Gatwick hotel and parking package.

4* Hilton London Gatwick

All these hotels offer easy access to the North and South terminals and, if you book them at the same time as your airport parking, you can save on the total cost too.

What Do On-Airport Gatwick Hotels Offer?

All the on-airport hotels that you can book through APH offer the highest levels of convenience and comfort. Enjoy the hotel facilities - some offer restaurants, bars and gyms on site - the night before your flight, and a hearty breakfast, before heading off on your travels.

You can save money by booking your Gatwick hotel stay in conjunction with airport parking. If your flight departs from North Terminal, for example, why not enjoy an overnight stay at the sophisticated Sofitel, with your car safely parked in our APH Car Park for the duration of your trip:

  •  Drive to the easy-access APH Car Park on the day of your hotel booking, drop off your car and take the free shuttle transfer to the North Terminal. Transfers take approximately 10 to 12 minutes and run every 15 minutes, 24/7.
  • From the North Terminal it is a short walk to the Sofitel. And in the morning, it’s just a two to three-minute walk to check-in via a covered walkway.
  • When you return to Gatwick at the end of your trip, just hop on the free shuttle transfer back to the APH Car Park to collect your car.

It is the same, simple process for any other on-airport Gatwick hotel and parking package.
