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.

- 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.
