Travel notes
Eurostar mornings from here are a five-minute run — guests regularly leave the hotel forty minutes before their train and make it with coffee time.
The closest station is Russell Square and Holborn. 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.
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.
For weddings, board dinners and delegations we run coordinated multi-car pickups from the door — one booking, one invoice, every guest accounted for.
Russell Square, The British Museum, St Pancras International, Bloomsbury are all close by — several walkable, the rest a short run with the car held between stops.
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.
Kimpton Fitzroy London has anchored Bloomsbury since 1898, known above all for its thé-au-lait terracotta palace on Russell Square. A hotel held to that standard deserves a journey that matches it — which is exactly what a car booked ahead provides: a named driver, a price fixed before you travel, and none of the kerbside app roulette that can undo an otherwise faultless stay.
The hotel’s Russell Square frontage keeps a generous set-down bay — cars load beneath the carved façade with the square’s planes for shade. Heathrow sits about 45 min–1h 05 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.
Eurostar mornings from here are a five-minute run — guests regularly leave the hotel forty minutes before their train and make it with coffee time. Through all of it the promise holds: the price is set before the wheels turn, tolls and charges sit inside it, and the car is where it should be when you are. Russell Square, The British Museum, St Pancras International are all a short run away — one or two worth folding into the journey while the driver waits.
