What to expect

Met at the door, settled in advance.

Great Scotland Yard the street is short, one-way and rarely busy — your chauffeur waits directly at the lantern-lit entrance.

01

Keep the car

Hold the chauffeur by the hour for meetings, the shops or a long evening — quoted up front, the car waiting between stops.

02

We watch the flight

Landing into London? We meet you in arrivals with a board and bring you to Great Scotland Yard on the real arrival time, an hour of waiting built in.

03

Executive standard

Clean, current, unbranded cars and chauffeurs who understand that the best service is the kind you barely notice.

04

Met at the door

Your chauffeur stands at Great Scotland Yard exactly where the doormen expect pre-booked cars — no circling the block, no phone tag, no scanning the rank.

The fleet

Great Scotland Yard from £47.

Six classes, one standard of care. Saloon, one way, off-peak. Rush hour, nights (10pm–6am) and bank holidays cost more; the return leg is 5% off when booked together — your quote shows the exact price before you book. The confirmed price covers the agreed itinerary; extra stops, changes or waiting beyond the allowance may cost more.

Travel notes

Good to know about Great Scotland Yard.

A word on traffic

Northumberland Avenue gives the fastest run to the Embankment and on to the City or London City Airport; it is the default route from this door.

On the doorstep

Trafalgar Square, Whitehall, Embankment, Covent Garden are all close by — several walkable, the rest a short run with the car held between stops.

More than one car

For weddings, board dinners and delegations we run coordinated multi-car pickups from the door — one booking, one invoice, every guest accounted for.

If you’d rather take the train

The closest station is Green Park and Piccadilly Circus. Handy for a light, single trip; less so with cases or a tight connection, which is where the door-to-door car earns its keep.

When to leave

For London City, the road runs freest early — before the morning build-up and after the evening one. Tell us the flight and we’ll name the pickup time rather than leave you guessing.

Tolls & charges

The hotel is inside the Congestion Charge and ULEZ zones, so both are already in your fixed price — which is not the case with every quote you’ll be given.

Getting to and from Great Scotland Yard

Great Scotland Yard Hotel opened in 2019 and has spent the years since earning its name for the Metropolitan Police’s storied former headquarters. Guests who choose it tend to mind how the day runs, not only where it ends — and the transfer is where that care is most often lost. A pre-booked car puts it back: one driver, one price, and a plan for the door before anyone reaches the kerb.

Great Scotland Yard the street is short, one-way and rarely busy — your chauffeur waits directly at the lantern-lit entrance. Heathrow sits about 45 min–1h from here in ordinary traffic, and every other terminal, station and port is priced the same transparent way. On the inbound leg your driver meets you inside arrivals with a board, watches the flight for delays, and holds the car free for an hour — so an immigration queue never becomes a missed connection.

Northumberland Avenue gives the fastest run to the Embankment and on to the City or London City Airport; it is the default route from this door. None of it changes the essentials — a fixed fare, every charge already counted, and a driver who is early rather than "nearly there". With Trafalgar Square and Whitehall close by, guests often add a stop and keep the car between them rather than starting afresh each time.

Your questions

Great Scotland Yard
questions.

Anything else — call us any time on 020 8742 2888.

What's the fixed fare from Great Scotland Yard to the airport?

Heathrow is £102 in a saloon, Gatwick £102. What makes it worth booking isn't only the number but that it holds — traffic, roadworks and the hour of day are our risk to carry, not a surprise on your bill.

Where does the car wait at Great Scotland Yard?

Great Scotland Yard the street is short, one-way and rarely busy — your chauffeur waits directly at the lantern-lit entrance.

How long does it take from Great Scotland Yard to Heathrow?

Reckon on 45 min–1h in ordinary traffic. Your chauffeur reads the live picture and, for a flight that won't wait, names the departure time rather than leaving you to guess. London City is the closest airport to the door, about 20–30 min away.

Can I keep the car by the hour instead?

Yes, and many guests prefer it — a chauffeur at your disposal for meetings, shopping or an evening, waiting between stops. Quoted up front, it usually beats booking each leg separately.

What about getting to the Eurostar?

St Pancras is a fixed £47 from Great Scotland Yard, luggage carried kerb to concourse — the part the Underground never manages. We aim you at the check-in cut-off, not the departure time.

Can you collect me for a very early flight?

We're 24/7. For the first departure of the day your chauffeur is outside Great Scotland Yard before the lobby has properly woken, at the same fixed fare as any other hour.

Which cars can I choose from?

Plenty of choice. If it's an impression that matters — a client, an occasion — the Executive does it; for everyday comfort the Executive is ideal. Tell us the day and we'll suggest the right one.

“I use P5 Chauffeurs every time I fly into and out of London. I'm impressed by their reliability, punctuality, and all-around professionalism. P5 is always my first choice.”
