Heathrow Airport Hotel & Parking
One of the world’s busiest international airports, Heathrow welcomed a record 83.9 million passengers in 2024, reinforcing its position as the UK’s largest and best-connected airport. Located around 14 miles west of Central London beside the M4 and M25, Heathrow is easy to reach by car-– which is exactly why booking a Heathrow hotel with parking is one of the most convenient, stress-free ways to start your journey.
At APH, we’ve arranged trusted airport parking and hotels for more than 45 years, and we’re the official Hotel & Parking supplier for Heathrow. Our Heathrow hotel and parking packages cover every terminal and budget – from a budget-friendly overnight stay to a luxury airport hotel, with secure long-stay parking, Park & Ride or a convenient Meet & Greet service included.
Booking a combined package in advance lets you sort your hotel and airport parking in one booking, usually for less than arranging them separately, so everything is confirmed before you travel. Whether you’re searching for a Heathrow hotel with parking, a “park and stay” deal, or simply hotels near Heathrow Airport for an early flight, you can compare and book below.
A Heathrow hotel and parking package combines one night’s hotel accommodation near the airport with parking for the duration of your trip, booked together as a single deal. You stay at the hotel the night before your flight, then either leave your car at the hotel, drive to a nearby secure car park, or hand it to a Meet & Greet driver – depending on the package you choose.
It’s ideal if you have an early departure, are travelling with family, or face a long motorway drive to the airport. The package removes the pre-dawn journey and keeps your car secure while you’re away.
Why Book a Heathrow Hotel and Parking Package?
A Heathrow hotel with parking saves time on departure day and is usually cheaper than booking a room and parking separately. The main benefits for business and leisure travellers are:
- Relax before you fly: avoid an early-morning motorway drive and stay minutes from the terminal the night before.
- Save time on departure day: a short hop to the terminal instead of a long, early journey.
- Better value: bundling hotel and parking is often cheaper than buying each on its own.
- Secure parking: packages use car parks with CCTV, barrier-controlled access and regular patrols.
- Great for families and long-haul trips: less stress with children, luggage and long stays.

How Much Does a Heathrow Hotel and Parking Package Cost?
Heathrow hotel and parking packages start from around £215 for one night’s stay including a full week’s parking – so the headline price already covers your car for the trip, not just the room. Shorter parking durations, room-only stays and off-peak dates cost less, while on-airport and 4–5 star hotels sit at the higher end.
Because every package bundles accommodation and parking, compare the total price including parking rather than the room rate alone. The table above shows live prices for your dates; the examples below are indicative starting points including a week’s parking.
| Hotel | Price From (incl. 1 week’s parking)* | Distance to Airport |
|---|---|---|
| Thistle London Heathrow Terminal 5 | £215.00 | 10 minutes |
| Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T5 | £222.81 | 15 minutes |
| Mercure London Heathrow | £226.91 | 13 minutes |
*Indicative starting prices based on one night’s hotel stay plus one week’s parking. Enter your dates above for live availability and pricing.
Heathrow Hotel and Parking Options
There are three main ways to combine parking with a Heathrow hotel stay: park at the hotel, Park & Ride, or Meet & Greet. The best choice depends on your budget, terminal, luggage and how much convenience you want.
1. Hotels With On-Site Parking
Hotels with on-site parking let you leave your car at the hotel for the whole trip – the simplest option if you’d rather park once, check in and relax. On the morning of your flight you travel to the terminal by shuttle, Heathrow Hoppa or taxi, and some on-airport hotels are within walking distance.
Popular hotels with on-site parking include the 3★ Thistle London Heathrow Terminal 5, close to Terminal 5 with runway views, and the 4★ DoubleTree by Hilton Heathrow Airport, a family-friendly choice with overnight parking.
2. Park & Ride Heathrow Hotel Packages
Park & Ride packages pair an overnight hotel stay with secure off-airport parking, and are usually the cheapest way to combine the two. After your stay you drive to a nearby secured car park and transfer to your terminal by shuttle bus.
- Often cheaper than official on-airport parking
- Well suited to longer trips and holidays
- Regular shuttle transfers to all Heathrow terminals
- Secure, monitored long-stay parking facilities
For example, the 4★ Hilton Garden Inn Heathrow offers overnight hotel parking before your car moves to a secure off-site Heathrow car park for the duration of your trip.
3. Meet & Greet Parking at Heathrow
Meet & Greet parking is the most convenient option: you drive straight to your departure terminal, hand your keys to a professional driver and go directly to check-in. Your car is parked securely and brought back to the terminal for your return.
It’s the quickest choice for families, business travellers and anyone with heavy luggage who wants to skip transfers altogether.

Park and Stay at Heathrow
“Park and stay” at Heathrow – sometimes called park, stay and fly – is simply another name for a Heathrow hotel and parking package: you stay at a hotel near the airport the night before your flight and park there or nearby for the length of your trip. All of the packages on this page are park and stay deals.
A park and stay booking is the easiest way to guarantee both your room and your parking space in one go, and locks in a combined price that’s usually lower than booking each element separately – especially during school holidays and peak departure periods.
Off-Airport Heathrow Hotels With Parking
Off-airport Heathrow hotels sit within roughly 15–20 minutes of the terminals and typically offer the best-value hotel and parking packages, making them a smart choice if you want comfort near Heathrow without on-airport prices.
Popular Off-Airport Heathrow Hotels
3★ Thistle London Heathrow Terminal 5: close to Terminal 5, with comfortable rooms, runway views and easy airport access.
4★ Hilton Garden Inn Heathrow: a modern hotel with free Wi-Fi, a gym, dining options and convenient terminal transfers.
4★ DoubleTree by Hilton Heathrow Airport: around three miles from Terminals 2 and 3, ideal for families and long-haul travellers.
4★ Leonardo Hotel Heathrow Airport: near Terminals 2 and 3, with a restaurant, bar, spa and Heathrow Hoppa connections.
3★ Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T5: a budget-friendly package with breakfast included and several parking options.
On-Airport Heathrow Hotels With Parking
On-airport Heathrow hotels put you as close to your terminal as possible – within the airport grounds or directly connected to a terminal – which is the best option when an early flight or minimal transfer time is your priority.
- Minimal transfer times: less travelling to check-in on departure day.
- Great for early flights: wake up right beside your terminal.
- Ideal for business travel: save time before departure.
- Easy terminal access: some hotels are linked by covered walkways.
Popular on-airport choices include the Hilton Heathrow Terminal 5, Hilton Heathrow Terminal 4 and Sofitel Heathrow Terminal 5.
