Hotel recommendations for Taycan parking in london

[kerryburn]

Hi guys

Reading the forums I too share the frustrations of london road widths with my Taycan, I wondered if anyone could recommend a hotel that has a car parking option to suit the Taycan, and by that I mean one that does not have the horrendous 90 degree turns to get into an NCP!! Budget is not my primary concern as like the other drivers, I would rather pay to avoid damage and despite rear wheel steer I have had terrible problems getting into a car park near chancery lane that people may know

So, obviously I will park it up and use public transport, but I wondered if you guys could highlight any hotels that have a parking space suitable for this car!

None.

Only thing that's half decent is the NCP behind Harrods.

If you make it to the “display places” alongside imports from the UAE in front of the hotel, The Dorchester has some nice parking spaces ?

When I had my LWB 7 series (5m30!) I used the car park in the Q-Park Westminster in college St, it’s quite straightforward.
Otherwise I’ve used the spaces at Roseate house in Paddington with the GL63 - they have their own in a small counter slip road and it’s 5min from the station. You can stay there or just book the space on JustPark.

See below - next to the G squared, mine looked like a toy car ?

That is brilliant, can I just say thanks for making the effort to respond, it really helps . Justpark is brilliant for this type of stuff. I tend to work Holborn area so ill look round there too

Do you have to drive into central London? Is there no option to leave the car at home or a hotel further out and a tube / train in?

After living there for 14+ years, I can safely say London is a terrible place to drive!

Nope I hear you, bad ankle gives me real issues with trains and tubes so any decent hotel that can Uber to central london would work, so any suggestions would work!

Totally fair enough. You could look in Clerkenwell, it's only a short bus ride (55, 242, 243) or 2 tube stops to Holborn. The Zetter Hotel is nice, and there's a NPC a few mins walk away on Saffron Hill (EC1N 8XA).

Do you know if the NCP has the horrendous turns that cause the issues with cars like the Taycan, ill take a streetview look . Many thanks

I'm sorry, I've no idea. When I worked in London, I didn't have a car.

Hello,

First on the list, a hotel in North Finchley - North London (I live nearby). Hotel condition is very good (I used it before for visitors), Big car park, nearby shops and services and big roads.

OYO Flagship London Finchley

next,
Holiday Inn London - Brent Cross, an IHG Hotel
https://goo.gl/maps/X1JjPCm6xYdmXCWr7
Holiday Inn has smaller car park but also very reasonable.


Also, Hilton edgware road has underground car park but a bit tight.

You are a gentleman, some great options there. Bloody glad I posted here!

Thinking a bit more about it, there's the Hilton in Angel Islington (next to the Business Design Centre). It's right next to Upper Street car park, there are a few 360 photos of the inside, so you can gauge it for manoeuvring.
Also, a 2-min walk from the car park, there is a Premiere Inn, too.

No worries that’s what forums are for!
If aiming at Holborn St Pancras I had loads of car parks, including the main station one but unsure if 100% safe. And yeah good thing about JustPark is by reading reviews you can gauge if you’ll fit or not!

NCP Bloomsbury isn’t too bad either, loads of large cars / teslas in there, about £30 a day from what I remember
