multistorey carparking at Heathrow? - Civlian
Forgive my ignorance, but is there easy multistorey parking near T3? I cannot find any information on the web at all, only references to open air parking. I just need to park for about a couple of hours or so.
Having never driven to T3, is the multistorey parking easy/reasonably cheap?

Advice gratefully received.
Thanks Stu

Parking at T3 is easy, just follow the signs for T3, park at departure level or arrival level - depending on what time you may need to queue. IT IS NOT CHEAP. cant remember the cost but I know its HIGH, specially once you start going over the 1-2 hours mark.

T3 departures and arrivals are separated by quite a way, make sure you know where you are heading for. One big multi-storey serves both but you can end up walking a long way. Only one level (cant remember wich) and ground floor connect directly to the terminal. Those who know it use the floor with the connecting walkway and that floor is ALWAYS busy with hardly any free spaces. From memory it is about £3.60 per hour (picked my parents up last September).

Went down on Saturday to the T3 arrivals short stay. Just follow the road signs carefully and you'll be fine.

Level 2 leads directly into the arrivals hall lift but is usually full. I got a space on level 3. Paystations are on level two only. You can drive down to them but it is better to pay then go to the car promptly.

Cost £3.70 for an hour.

When you go through the tunnel either be in the right lane or be prepared to get there on exiting the tunnel. Then follow the signs. I always go up the spiral several floors to avoid the mob.

Charge is £2.10 for half hour. £3.70 for first hour.
I normally find it best to drive to the top floor/roof, level 5 I think. There are lifts which are big enough to take trolleys.

When leaving get the big lift to the pay stations and then walk round the corner to the smaller lifts, which will take you to your car park level.

Good luck! I don't have to do it too often nowadays, I've got all my customers trained to meet outside at the drop-off point.
