Gatwick North airport parking

[GSD Jack7]

Hi,

I'm currently looking at 16 days parking at Gatwick North. We will also book the premier inn for the night before.

On holiday extras Premier inn as a package with meet and greet parking is cheaper than the hotel with purple parking. Does anyone know if there is a particular reason for this as i expected this to be the other way around

Alternatively when looking at buying the hotel & parking separately on the official Gatwick long term parking, I can get the "valet parking North", which is located in the car park next door to Premier Inn literally across the road from the airport I believe for considerably cheaper than the "Long Stay North" - which involves a shuttle, or the MAG parking.

Is there a reason for this, as this would seem to be both the most convenient and cheapest option, which seems to good to be true.

Any help with the above or parking suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks

The long stay North can have quite a wait for the shuttle bus - I normally avoid it.

I've actually had good deals booking either the South terminal short or long term car parks, even though I was travelling from the North terminal as the shuttle tram runs often and is quick.

I’ve used North valet parking when staying at Premier Inn many times. Well worth the extra few quid, just a short walk each way. When you return your car is waiting for you on the ground floor.
As with all parking make sure it’s the official Gatwick Parking, not some cow boys.

Perfect - thanks for the responses. I shall use the valet parking service, located at the airport.
