Well, unfortunately I need to spend some days at kings College Hospital in London SE5 and I have a problem with parking and paying £2.00 per hour. Considering Im looking at about 4x days because my daughter is in for some operations and I need to be close by. I don’t mind getting a hotel, but none offer any parking that I can find.
So I wonder is there anybody in the .org that lives close just so I can dump my car on a driveway and walk to the hotel. I don’t mind a few miles on foot. I can reward with beer, wine cash or discounts on car parts. I don’t expect it for free, but don’t expect it to be £2.00 per hour! |

Cant you stay somewhere like Croydon and get the train to Denmark Hill (Nearest station). I know a few hotels that have car parks there, namely the holiday inn.

Kings has free bike parking at the far end of Bessemer Road. Although i wouldn't let my bike out of my sight aroud there. My friend works there and parts from bikes even whole bikes have been known to vanish. A despatch riders bike was stolen whilst he went into the hospital with the delivery. ![]() |
