East Midlands Long Stay 1 Reviews

I booked my car into East Mids airport car park 6 months prior to traveling. I received email then a phone call that the name of the car park had changed from long stay 1 to short stay 3. During the phone call I updated my new cars's number plate with the man of the phone, who re-issued me with new and updated email. So parking my car was no problem but on return trying to get out was very stressful which I didn't need. 3 attempts inputting the token failed, had to reverse to let more cars out and try again, the tiny little button with a picture of a phone on is not clear. Anyway, I finally found it and rang. Turns out that my details were not updated on your system, however I have the email confirming it had. After confirming my old details The barrier was lifted. The ordeal lasted 20 minutes and was very stressful.

Thought I had booked a car park with a short walk to terminal. Turned out it was a bus ride. Good availability of space. Prompt collection on outbound leg. On return waited at 01:15 with a young family at a bus stop with an enormous line of people. No bus in the promised time of 15 minutes. I had to walk to car to collect my family who stayed behind. My walk beat the bus, when I did see the bus it was overcrowded and would have been uncomfortable for my family. Car was safe and apart from return issues, happy with experience.

Brilliant - wanted meet and greet but was a last minute break - this was so easy - didn't even have to wait for bus transfers, timing was just right both times! Make sure you make a note of where you are parked by the bus stop number - we did - but there was a family wandering around looking for their car - not good after a long flight!

Entry and exit of the car park was painless, and the bus service was efficient. The only problem was trying to find a space in the large, mostly full car park.

Easily checked in and out by registration recognition. However some parking spaces are small and the surface is rough to pull suitcases over.

Entry and exit using the ENPR system worked easily. There were very few parking spaces and finding one to park a large Mazda 6 Tourer took a little longer than I would have liked. The Terminal building was a very short distance away and easily accessible. Would use this again.

EXCELLENT - EASY PARKING EASY EXCESS TO THE AIRPORT.

Simple, no fuss, would recommend.
