Has anyone used the Russ Hill hotel nr Gatwick for car parking whilst on holiday?
We are staying here for 1 night before we go on holiday and the car is parked there for 15 days while we go to Greece. I have read so many reviews that are horrendous but a few that have had no problems at all so i am on the verge of cancelling this place. Has anyone stayed there and if so what was the car parking like?
Yes we used it. Can’t recomend it, long way by bus from Gatwick
Very approx 1 hour wait They also keep your keys and move your car. Mine was scratched, just dumped in field, Radio had been interferied with, and other things I noticed.
Would never use the place again
UK Airports, Car Parks - Stansted - Passenger pickup hell from Oct 2006. Environmentally unfriendly?
No common sense left in world? Partner arrived at 10pm on a European flight to Stansted & was waiting. Inside terminals hell at moment so why can’t officials get something right. As a stranger to this airport (she flew from different airport) there is minimal info. Long Q of cars into short term 15min pickup advises min charge £1 (no other rates). Inside find a bay to park & pay at foot pay station (significant Q’s) - mass of people; no clear ID or marked waiting areas to find people. You struggle to find friends & family. Cars queuing way back waiting to get into short term parking & there are no notices adivsing specific prices. I got out "1st" time after 16 mins for £3 but other people hammered for £20. The Orange Car park just next door gives fairer fares & this advise not displayed. Cash Cow to excess? Sack designers? Customer care cannot get any worse? Penalised as 1 car family? Park & Ride? UK 3rd world? NCP & BAA in profit drive? 2min pickup > 1hr. Boycott, save planet?
Ummmm…. Youre worried about the environmental impact of car parking ? at an AIRPORT ? where MASSIVE jet engins burn away gallons and gallons of fuel at insanely low efficiency levels…. Hey… drive anywhere drive in individual cars, if you wanna save the planet…… Boycot the aeroplanes !
