I got tickets to see Taylor Swift, thinking about staying overnight rather than drive home from like midnight (3hr+ show), so need a hotel. Can someone recommend a hotel that:

1 - Has parking
2 - Close to another tube station
3 - Not in the congestion zone (my car is ULEZ exempt)
4 - West side of London as I will be coming in from the M4.

Cheers!

That looks nice but can't book this far in advance yet, which is good I supposed since no one else can.
its a very good hotel, the free parking is up till 10pm same day check out. :D It has a very big park. Also google Hilton discounts: :D ;)

You might be better off getting a hotel somewhere slightly outside of London (High Wycombe? Anywhere on that Chiltern railway line) then driving to somewhere nearby and paying for parking or getting a train to the Wembley Stadium station.
 
Looking at it further, the latest train on a usual day (today) in that direction (High Wycombe) from Wembley seems to be at 11:20. Might need to do a bit of research to see if there will be more trains later on show day.

Curfew will be at 11ish I imagine, so plenty of time to get there, but many other people will have the same idea. Worst outcome might be a £60ish ride hailing trip back out to your hotel.

Also, this option is great if you’re escaping up the m40 the next day, but perhaps of limited value if you need to whizz back to the west.

Just contact the hotel direct and see if they can book that far in advance.

I've done it numerous times with Accor brands booking 14 months in advance when there is a big event due in a city.
 
If I'm going to somewhere busy e.g. a nightclub, I'll book an Uber a few streets away at a place where I know it will be less busy (or closed even), simply so I know that it's my car that is turning up. If you're booking outside Wembley Stadium, it will be impossible to know which car will be yours. Then the Uber takes me to a hotel 10 miles away where I have previously checked in.

Don't you just check the number plate?
 
Didn’t sign up in time for the general sale code :(

Don't think it made much difference, according to a Discord server, the possibility to get a code for the general code sale was like 1 in 10! There are people who signed up with 6 different email addresses and all told they are only on the waiting list. There were 14 million registrations for tickets and there are total fewer than 1 million tickets available across all dates in the UK. 35% of those were already sold in the pre-sale.
