Flying from Stansted - parking and hotels
Discussion
As a very inexperienced and anxious traveller I trying to get everything planned and booked asap. Going to be flying from Stansted in early May and haven't been there before. Can anybody recommend a hotel for the night before and parking for the week? Looking online the mid stay car park seems to be pretty close to both the premier inn and holiday inn, is it easy to get to the terminals from either of these, will have a 3 year old and an 8 month old with us so lots of crap and not many hands!
Thanks all, have booked Hilton for the night, but parking in the short stay. Hilton only had 4 days or 15 days parking, I need 9.
Not great to hear Stansted is hell, I was hoping it'd be a bit quieter than Gatwick. How early would you experienced travellers suggest we get there, flight is 8.30 on a Saturday morning?
Am I the only one that hates holidays? What's meant to be a time for relaxing stresses me out!

flew stansted this weekend although no hotel.
There’s a new multi-storey car park - green car park, which is pretty much all under cover to the terminal so you avoid getting soaked walking from the other short stays. Think it was also the cheapest.
Security with two kids of equal age was brilliant. Staff were very helpful.
This is the carpark I've booked, 8 nights cost £63. It's the opposite side of the terminal to the hotel but I figured I'd hopefully be able to drop the wife and kids off at the hotel and go and park up. I don't mind a bit of a walk, should then be nice and close when we arrive back.

Not looking forward to it, but there you go, got to do these things for the kids I suppose.
Yeah the multi story looks to be on one side of the terminal building, with the hilton on the other. Hopefully should work out alright. We looked at the premier inn and mid stay parking, it was quite a bit cheaper but I didn't fancy the extra rush in the morning having to get buses etc.
We're flying with tui.
