Shangri-La The Shard to Victoria Station · Hotel route
A fixed-price chauffeur between Shangri-La The Shard, London and Victoria Station — 3 miles, typically 10–20 min, in either direction. Booked in advance, met in person, train tracked on the way in.

How it works
Travelling to Shangri-La The Shard, your driver meets you on the concourse at Victoria Station with a name board, your train tracked. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: the hotel’s own entrance sits on St Thomas Street, separate from the Shard’s office lobby — your chauffeur waits there, not in the London Bridge drop-off scrum.
