Good ‘airport parking and hotel stay’ deals via little-known IHG link

Most people are aware that – if you need airport parking whilst you are on holiday – it is often cheaper to book a nearby hotel which offers a ‘free parking’ package and stay there the night before.  Companies such as Holiday Extras specialise in arranging these.

IHG, the Holiday Inn / Crowne Plaza group, also has a pan-European ‘Park, Stay & Go’ offer.  It does not always come up when you search local hotels from the main IHG website.  You need to book via this dedicated link.

In the UK, the offer covers pretty much every airport – this is not a London-centric deal by any means.

As a test, I looked at Glasgow Airport.  I was looking for a hotel stay for one night on Saturday 4th June with up to eight days of car parking included.

The Holiday Inn Express (website here) was offering this deal.  The prices were:

• Room-only for 7th June: £151

• Room with four days of parking: £175

• Room with eight days of parking: £195

• Room with 15 days of parking: £210

With this deal, you do not leave your car at the hotel.  You leave your keys with the hotel and they will store your car offsite and return it to the hotel for collection on the day you come back.

With the Holiday Inn Express 15 day package, your parking effectively costs you £3.93 per day over and above the standard cost of the hotel.

Some of these packages are also available via the main ihg.com website.  If you are specifically looking for hotels which offer parking packages, however, it is more convenient to check the ‘Park, Stay & Go’ site here.

PS.  It is also worth looking at JustPark for sneaky parking options near major airports, often on private drives or office or hotel car parks.  This is our last article, from 2019, on JustPark.
