Premier Inn Terminal 5 Heathrow Airport with hotel shuttle |
The Premier Inn Terminal 5 Heathrow is one of four Premier Inn hotels serving Heathrow airport located around the airport perimeter.
As its name implies this Premier Inn Terminal 5 is best located for those using Terminal 5, though note it is not within walking distance of Terminal 5. In fact it is more than a mile or a couple of kilometres away.
If you are using Terminals 2 and 3, the Premier Inn (Bath Road) a couple of miles east is arguably a better option for those terminals. And for Terminal 4 the Premier Inn Terminal 4 is connected to Terminal 4 by a covered walkway.
The Premier Inn Terminal 5 is on the edge of Longford Village, there are a couple of pubs about 5 minutes walk away and a McDonald's nearby.
A red London bus runs every 20-30 minutes from outside the hotel and terminates in front of Terminal 5 arrivals hall. This bus is route number 423. Before Covid this bus route was free as were many of the bus routes in the Heathrow Free Travel Zone (FTZ). From 12 June 2021, you can consider the entire Free Travel Zone to be suspended until further notice.
