Can I sleep at a UK airport rather than at an airport hotel?

Many airports are open 24 hours, and there are no rules prohibiting people from sleeping, but it's a good idea to check the specific airport's regulations. The comfort and convenience also vary significantly depending on the airport. Many airports have seating areas, but they may have armrests that prevent lying down, so ideally, you would need to look for soft seating without armrests. UK airports like Heathrow, Gatwick, and Stansted have areas where passengers can rest, but you're unlikely to find areas specifically designed for sleeping.
Bear in mind that terminal buildings are also bright, noisy, and can get chilly, so come equipped with a sleep mask, some earplugs, and plenty of warm layers if you're planning to snooze.
For a much more comfortable and safer night's sleep, we always recommend booking an airport hotel. We offer a fantastic range of budget-friendly, 3-star hotels that won't break the bank and will provide peace of mind as well as a peaceful night's sleep!


Is it worth booking an airport hotel?

Booking an airport hotel has lots of advantages that can make for a memorable holiday, particularly if you have an early flight or long layover. Staying at an airport hotel can stop the stress of the early morning commutes and hassle of the risks of traffic delays or transportation issues. Which is ideal if you're travelling from a city prone to congestion!
Airport hotels often provide essential amenities and added perks such as high-speed internet, restaurants, and wellness facilities (like spas), making them an excellent choice for those looking to start their holiday relaxed and refreshed. Additionally, many hotels offer packages that include parking, which can be more cost-effective than airport parking alone, providing both convenience and value.


How can I save money on an airport hotel?

We have five top money-saving tips for when you're booking your next airport hotel stay:
- Book in advance: Like with many travel arrangements, booking your airport hotel well in advance can secure you lower rates. Hotels often offer the best prices to early bookers.
- Mystery airport hotels: We offer an innovative way of getting a fantastic deal on cheap airport hotels. The identity of our Mystery airport hotels remains, as the name suggests, a mystery until after you book. You'll be told the distance from the airport and the star rating of the hotel to help you decide. For peace of mind, we only offer these special rates on 3-star or 4-star stopovers, so there's no need to worry about the quality of the hotel.
- Compare prices: Compare hotel deals across different hotels near the airport. This will help you secure the best prices and may also highlight any discounts that are available.
- Stay off-airport: Rather than booking a hotel that's connected to the airport, why not save some extra cash by booking an overnight stay slightly further away from the terminal? Consider hotels that are still within a short driving distance. These can often be significantly cheaper and just as convenient, especially if they offer a shuttle service to the airport.
- Avoid paying for extras: Stick with the bare minimum if you're on a budget and avoid optional add-ons like breakfast if they're not included for free. These can sometimes significantly increase the overall cost of your stay.


Is there somewhere to sleep at Heathrow Airport?

Heathrow Airport provides several sleeping options for snoozy holidaymakers. While there are a few rest zones and lounges within the airport where passengers can relax, these are not specifically designed for overnight sleeping. For more privacy and comfort, Heathrow offers 'GoSleep Sleeping Pods' in Terminal 3, which are ideal for short naps and can be rented by the hour.
Alternatively, we've a wide range of Heathrow hotels available to book, either directly connected to or near the airport, such as the 5-star Sofitel London Heathrow at Terminal 5 or the 4-star Heathrow Hilton at Terminal 4, offering convenient access and amenities like spas and fitness centres.
Booking an airport hotel provides a more conventional sleeping environment with the added benefits of soundproofing, comfort, and easy terminal access, making them perfect for holidaymakers with early flights or late arrivals.


Can I cancel my airport hotel booking?

Yes, if you book with Purple Parking, there's FREE Cancellation with your booking so there's no need to worry if your plans change. We've made it easy to amend or cancel your booking, without you having to pay any fees. Find out further details and all the terms and conditions when you make a booking.



Getting from the Hotel to the Airport

If your airport hotel is too far away from the airport for you to walk, you need to bear transfers in mind. For the most part, transfers are included in your booking but we've outlined the various types of airport transfers below.

Types of Airport Transfers:

Shuttle Bus - Some hotels offer their own shuttle service to and from the airport, while others have a dedicated airport shuttle that makes stops at multiple hotels along its route.

Taxi - For hotels a few miles from the airport, your accommodation can arrange a taxi with a trusted company, often at a fixed rate.

Walk - If your hotel is very close to the airport terminal, you might simply walk the short distance to the departure area.

Drive - If you've bundled your hotel stay with airport parking, you may either leave your car at the hotel for the duration of your trip or drive to an airport car park prior to your departure.
