Travel notes
Good to know about The Bloomsbury.
Getting the hour right
The Coral Room’s evenings run long and lovely — a pre-booked car home at your named hour outlasts every app surge in WC1.
Around the hotel
The British Museum, Bedford Square, Tottenham Court Road, Covent Garden are all close by — several walkable, the rest a short run with the car held between stops.
Nearest Underground
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.
For arriving guests
Flying in, your chauffeur meets you in arrivals with a name board, tracks the flight, and delivers you to The Bloomsbury rested — 60 minutes of airport waiting always included.
No kerbside extras
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.
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.
Getting to and from The Bloomsbury
The Bloomsbury has anchored Bloomsbury since 1928, known above all for its Lutyens building and Coral Room bar. 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.
Great Russell Street’s kerb outside the hotel is shared with museum coaches by day — early and evening pickups are effortless; middays we stage on Adeline Place. Allow roughly 45 min–1h 05 to Heathrow outside the peaks, with fixed fares to Gatwick, City, Luton, Stansted, St Pancras and the cruise ports besides. Coming the other way, we follow the flight from the moment it leaves, meet you in the hall with your name, and keep the meter-free clock stopped for sixty minutes while you clear customs.
The Coral Room’s evenings run long and lovely — a pre-booked car home at your named hour outlasts every app surge in WC1. 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. The British Museum, Bedford Square, Tottenham Court Road are all a short run away — one or two worth folding into the journey while the driver waits.

How much is a chauffeur from The Bloomsbury to Heathrow?
Expect £67 for a saloon to Heathrow and £105 to Gatwick, each fixed in advance. Weighed against a metered taxi, the value is the certainty: one price, confirmed in writing, whatever the M4 happens to be doing.
Where will my chauffeur meet me at The Bloomsbury?
Great Russell Street’s kerb outside the hotel is shared with museum coaches by day — early and evening pickups are effortless; middays we stage on Adeline Place.
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.
Do you carry seats for children?
We carry them at no charge; just tell us the ages and rough weights. The seats are fitted and checked before pickup, so there's no wrestling with straps at the Bloomsbury kerb.
Will my cases and a golf bag fit?
Two cases to a saloon is the rule of thumb, doubling for estates and far more for the larger cars. The only mistake is under-booking the vehicle — tell us the real load and nothing rides on a lap.
Can we make a stop on the way?
Multiple pickups and stops are no trouble. Guests often gather a group across Bloomsbury or run an errand en route to the airport — arrange it ahead and it's simply part of the one fixed fare.
Will I be charged extra for the Congestion Charge or ULEZ?
Yes — being central, the Congestion Charge and ULEZ apply, and both are baked into the fixed price. Worth comparing against quotes that quietly add them at the end.
“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.”
