On the day
Met at the door, settled in advance.
The hotel’s corner entrance faces the Aldwych crescent; cars stop within steps of the revolving door, clear of the Strand’s bus flow.
Met at the door
Your chauffeur stands at One Aldwych exactly where the doormen expect pre-booked cars — no circling the block, no phone tag, no scanning the rank.
Quiet and discreet
Clean, current, unbranded cars and chauffeurs who understand that the best service is the kind you barely notice.
By the hour, too
Hold the chauffeur by the hour for meetings, the shops or a long evening — quoted up front, the car waiting between stops.

Worth knowing
Good to know about One Aldwych.
Local timing
For Eurostar mornings, the run to St Pancras from here is a reliable twelve minutes before 8am — quicker than the Piccadilly line with luggage, and drier.
Best departure times
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.
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.
What’s in the fare
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.
The rail alternative
The closest station is Covent Garden and Charing Cross. 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 inbound leg
Flying in, your chauffeur meets you in arrivals with a name board, tracks the flight, and delivers you to One Aldwych rested — 60 minutes of airport waiting always included.
A chauffeur for One Aldwych, done properly
One Aldwych has anchored Covent Garden since 1998, known above all for its Edwardian newspaper-office building and underwater-music pool. 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 corner entrance faces the Aldwych crescent; cars stop within steps of the revolving door, clear of the Strand’s bus flow. 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.
For Eurostar mornings, the run to St Pancras from here is a reliable twelve minutes before 8am — quicker than the Piccadilly line with luggage, and drier. 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. Somerset House, Covent Garden, Theatreland are all a short run away — one or two worth folding into the journey while the driver waits.

What's the fixed fare from One Aldwych to the airport?
A saloon to Heathrow starts at £47, and that figure is the whole of it: tolls, tracking and an hour's waiting included. Gatwick runs from £47. You see the price before you commit, not after the journey.
Which entrance should I use at One Aldwych?
The hotel’s corner entrance faces the Aldwych crescent; cars stop within steps of the revolving door, clear of the Strand’s bus flow.
Which London airport is closest to One Aldwych?
Distance-wise, London City wins at roughly 20–30 min. Practically, book whichever your flight uses; the fixed fare from One Aldwych means the closer airport isn't automatically the cheaper trip.
Isn't the Underground quicker from One Aldwych?
The nearest station is Covent Garden and Charing Cross, and for a lone traveller it can be quick. With cases, an early flight or a suit that shouldn't crease, door-to-terminal usually wins once you count the walk, the steps and the change — and the fare is fixed either way.
Can I request an executive or first-class car?
Six classes, from an everyday saloon up to the Executive class, plus estates, the V-Class MPV and a 8-seat van. Name the occasion and we'll match the car.
What happens if my flight lands late?
That's the whole point of booking ahead. We watch the arrivals board so you needn't text from the gate; the driver knows before you've cleared passport control, and the included hour absorbs the usual airport friction.
Are tolls and the Congestion Charge included?
One Aldwych sits inside the central zones, so the Congestion Charge and ULEZ are already in every fare — nothing is tacked on at the kerb.
“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.”
