Any recommendations for an overnight stay, with luggage?
In a few months from now, I will be arriving on BA into T5, then departing the next day on SQ from T2.
A quick search shows the Hilton Garden Inn is a few minutes walk to T2.
Would I be best off taking the Heathrow Express from T5 to T2?

Hilton Garden Inn is great but expensive. Fantastic roof top bar overlooking the runway for BA..We used the free internal trains to move from one terminal to the next and walk T2 to T3.

Some discussion here that might help

 
I personally haven’t bothered with anything other than the Sofitel at Heathrow for many years now. They always look after us extremely well so we just stick with them

I've been staying at the Hilton Garden Inn (formerly Jury's Inn) since 2006. Always well priced, nice rooms (runway 27L side) & excellent brekkies. Less than 10 mins walk to Hatton Cross tube, then a 10 min train to T2&3. Will be trying out HGI T2 for my last night next month.
 
HGI T2/3 is the best option for T2/3 departures.
Stayed there multiple times, most recently this week. Fabulous roof top bar that’s open until midnight for the late arrivals.
T5 Departures is Sofitel
T4 Departures eg early QR to DOH I stay at Hilton London T4

All of these hotels are easy/ quick walking distance to departures at the respective terminals.
 
I’ve stayed at Sofitel and it’s very convenient connecting to T5. Connecting between terminals is also easy at Heathrow.

It really depends on whether you want to save some time to get to T2 connecting from T5 on day of departure. I personally would stay at T2 if departing from T2 to make it easier.
 
Thanks everyone, some great info. I'll go with the Hilton Garden Inn T2, given it's a morning departure.
 
If flying out on BA especially in F we use the Sofitel. For SQ and any other flights using T2 or T3 definitely the HGI. great bar and restaurant and fantastic airport views.
