Purple Place Heathrow

Purple Parking Long Term at Heathrow is a disaster. We waited 30 mins at the bus stop and it took us another hour to get back to the car park through the traffic. It is miles away from Heathrow. Avoid and pay a bit more for something better. We arrived back at Heathrow to find our car hadn't been returned. The man at the desk couldn't have been more unhelpful He didn't know where the car was, why it hadn't been returned, didn't have a phone number to call and didn't know where we could get the bus to whichever depot it was at. Once we found the number, two seperate people said 'this is the car that was recovered off the motorway'. Purple Park & Ride Terminal 5. Secure car parking near Heathrow Airport from just £35.95 per week including free airport transfers.Reviewed 80.96% from 83 reviews.

The departure point was in fact from Terminal 3.I FOUND IT INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT TO FIND THE ENTRANCE ON THE BATH ROAD. MY SATNAVs DIRECTED ME TO THE Hotel INSIDE THE BUNDARY SO I HAD TO COME OUT AND GO DOWN THE A4 TILL I SAW PP ON THE OTHER CARRIAGEWAY. THEREWAS A SLIGHT DELAY AS I HAD MISSED THE BUS I WANTED BUT TERE WEREONLY 3 PEOPLE ON THE 0700 BUSSO THAT WAS FAST.ON RETURN (I HADHAD A FALL AND BADLY BRUISED MY HIP SO I WAS IN A WHEELCHAIR. THEASSISTANT WAS NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE STOP POINTS AND THE SIGNS TO 22 WERE VERY POOR INDEED. DUE TO THIS I MISSED A BUS BY 40 SECS AND BECAUSE THE NEXT ONE WOULD BE CIRCA 30 MINS, IT WAS COLD AND DRIZZLING S I TOOK ABLACK CAB TO PP ATACOST OF Â£20. ALL I WANTED TO DO WAS GET HOME AT ABOUT 1130 CET.I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU DRAWA PRECISE MAP SO PEOPLE ARE NOT MISLED IN THEDARK LIKE I WAS. OR GET YOURSELF A POSTCODE.THE COST WAS CHEAP BUT RAISED BY THE TAXI FARE

Finding the car park was simple, they said there are often issues, so I just went for the hotel nearest. The car park was clearly labeled and very helpful staff in the reception.Jumped on a bus and went.On way back I had a 30 minute wait for the return bus. Which is what is clearly labelled, just think this could be reduced, as its a long time to wait.However, got back, and within 10 seconds I had my keys and was on the road.Fantastic service overall. Just maybe lay a few more busses on, or have a screen showing when the next one is due.

We flew back from Berlin on BA0986, which was diverted to Luton because of a combination of a false fire-alarm at Heathrow, where we were marooned for five hours by BA's catastrophic IT glitches and terrible service. We were finally dropped off by coach back at LHR T5 at midnight from a flight due to land there at 14.35, but the staff were wonderful at Purple and we were reunited with our Tiguan without delay. It was such a pleasure to be treated so well by Purple Parking.

Very efficient check in and collection. Just a bit frustrating having to wait 30 mins for a bus now it is not 'on demand'. We just missed one, and the next arrived 20 mins later, but then waited at the stop for a further 10 minutes.

The directions to the Purple Parking car park were very good. The gentleman on the gate was very helpful and courteous and quickly identified and corrected for me the transposed letters (my mistake) in my car registration number. He clarified for us the arrangements for our return. Due to extremely busy traffic when we landed there was a slightly longer wait than expected fort the bus on the way back but once on board the short trip back to the car park and collecting our car were very smooth.We would be happy to use this service again. Thank you.

This car park is the hardest to find.I read through instructions and could not find the place.I used both postcode and address, separately and together and ended up near Syon Park, MILES away from the actual car park.If you can find the place then the distance to airport and bus service was good.
