...Our flight arrived late after the normal time for pick up by the buses but all we had to do was use a telephone to contact one of the Pink Elephant staff and a vehicle was sent to pick us up immediately. The service was brilliant and delivered us straight back to our car from.....
Mrs Howcutt - Business Parking Terminals 1 and 3
...Found that the signs from M25 were very small and not easy to spot. Found the car park safe and secure, bus transfers very good, only other complaint was the the bus to collect us from T3 had no sign saying that it was Pink Elephant. Good value for money...
Mrs Tindall - Business Parking Terminals 1 and 3
...Directions to car park were from M4, we came around the M25, and my husband gave us directions to the car park, leaving junction 14 on the M25, then using the perimeter road, which I believe is better than using the M4, because if you made a mistake at the round a bout before.....
Mrs Homewood - Business Parking Terminals 1 and 3
...We chose the Pink Elephant car park because we wanted to park close to the airport. It also offered fast, frequent transfers to the terminals. We were very pleased with the service. The car park was well staffed even at 5am when we arrived. The transfer bus left very promptly......
Mr Bowditch - Business Parking Terminals 1 and 3
...An excellent service. We were travelling with children so chose a car park slightly closer than the others, though the price was slightly more. It was well worth it - there was a bus waiting as we unloaded the car, and there was a bus at the terminal exactly when we needed it......
Mrs Mackenzie - Business Parking Terminals 1 and 3
...We booked online Friday night, arrived Saturday morning, left the car, walked to a bus, were dropped off at terminal 2 and everything took us just 10 minutes! On the way back to the car park we were picked up after a 2 mins wait. As there was a lot of traffic around terminal.....
Dr Huzelmann - Business Parking Terminals 1 and 3
...We arrived back at the parking at 7.00am, had to defrost the car and then go up to reception to exchange our voucher. We were greeted by the most charming and friendly guy in the office who kindly waited while we de-misted the car further and then let us through the barrier......
Mrs Jefferson - Business Parking Terminals 1 and 3
...Its very easy to drive straight past the entrance, coming from the M25. Because the road layout is a bit odd its not easy to double back on yourself. Leaving the airport terminal building, the signs are rubbish (this is Heathrow's problem, not Pink Elephants). You need.....
Jane - Business Parking Terminals 1 and 3
...I was impressed with the whole experience except for the poor signage....even the courtesy bus driver agreed with me that the car park is tricky to find. Instructions to "follow the signs for Pink Elephant" need to be supplemented with additional instructions of how.....
Miss Carroll - Business Parking Terminals 1 and 3
...If it's your first time using Pink Elephant and are coming from the M4, don't take the first exit off the Heathrow Spur road (sign posted to the A4) but continue under the bridge and then take the next exit on the left to the northern perimeter road (the model of.....
