Description

No shuttle bus is required!! Because we will meet you at the terminal.

Simply Smart Parking aims to provide a convenient service by collecting the vehicle at the terminal as you depart and returning it upon arrival. 
The vehicle is parked safely and securely in our secure car park, which is 5-6miles aways from the Airport, 24/7 and patrolled by mobile security. 
Meet and greet parking or valet parking - is perfect for all travelers. Whether you are a golfer or skier battling with heavy luggage, a business traveler rushing to get to check-in, or a young family with small children, our service saves you the time and hassle of searching for a parking space at a busy Gatwick airport.

Fee: 

All customers will be required to pay an access fee of £7.00 with an initial booking cost (while making the booking). This is so our representative can pay the Gatwick Airport charge of £3.50 on your arrival and return day.

"I was apprehensive about meet and greet as I had heard some horror stories. I read the reviews of most of the Gatwick meet and greet services and based my decision to use Simply Smart from previous customers reviews, most were favourable. Online booking was quick and easy, confirmation email had all the details required. Staff were efficient and car was delivered within 20 minutes of arriving back at Gatwick. Only observation is that details on where to collect the car differs on the printed material to that given by the operator when telephoned to report arrival, which was confusing. "

"As far as the Meet and Greet experience went it was very good. I did note that the written return instruction differs from that given when phoning in - Car park 5 is not used at present; car park 6 is used. Although not the responsibility of Simply Parking, I had some disquiet when the exit barrier opened as I approached and not when the payment ticket was placed in machine. Having once been wrongly accused of leaving my car in the car park for over 3 months when the system failed to record its exit, we returned for an explanation and assurance that a repeat problem would not arise. Car park customer relations staff assured us that all was well as the VRN recognition cameras were proof of entry and exit. If the exit procedure no longer requires use of the payment receipt to get out, it would be helpful for clients to know; equally, if there was a glitch with the system I would expect that the SP drivers would be aware of that and tell customers to drive on."

"Making the reservation was easy. Instructions were clear on getting to car park. Had a little wait for drop off agent and was not quite clear where in the cat park I should meet . Pickup timing was perfect,as we arrived so did the car. The lady who returned the car was extremely pleasant and efficient. All in all a good experience. AS"
