Before you travel
Good to know about The Cavendish.
Getting the hour right
Piccadilly is one-way eastbound here — westbound airport runs loop via St James’s Street, which adds ninety seconds, not ten minutes.
For arriving guests
Flying in, your chauffeur meets you in arrivals with a name board, tracks the flight, and delivers you to The Cavendish rested — 60 minutes of airport waiting always included.
Nearest Underground
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.
Around the hotel
Fortnum & Mason, Jermyn Street, St James’s Square, Piccadilly Circus are all close by — several walkable, the rest a short run with the car held between stops.
Beating the peak
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.
Concierge coordination
Happy to work directly with the The Cavendish concierge — standing arrangements, account billing and repeat bookings for regular guests are all straightforward.
Arriving and leaving The Cavendish well
The Cavendish London has anchored St James’s since 1902, known above all for its Jermyn Street address above the shirtmakers. 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.
Jermyn Street’s kerb outside the hotel is short-stay but workable; your driver times arrival to your call down from the lobby. Allow roughly 45 min–1h 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.
Piccadilly is one-way eastbound here — westbound airport runs loop via St James’s Street, which adds ninety seconds, not ten minutes. 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. Fortnum & Mason, Jermyn Street, St James’s Square 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 Cavendish to Heathrow?
We quote £60 to Heathrow, £75 to Gatwick, and a set fare to every other terminal, station and port. Larger cars are priced up front too, so a family or a full luggage load never becomes an awkward sum at the end.
Where will my chauffeur meet me at The Cavendish?
Jermyn Street’s kerb outside the hotel is short-stay but workable; your driver times arrival to your call down from the lobby.
Will my cases and a golf bag fit?
It depends what you're carrying: two big cases fit a saloon comfortably; beyond that we'll send an estate or the V-Class. Golf clubs, ski bags and prams are all fine with a word ahead.
Do you track flights on the way in?
Every inbound flight is monitored. Land early and the car is already there; held on the tarmac or at the desk, and the driver waits — gratis — for sixty minutes after touchdown.
Which airport is best for The Cavendish?
Nearest is London City at 20–30 min, which is handy — but don't over-think it: we run to Heathrow, Gatwick, City, Luton, Stansted and Southend alike, each priced in advance.
Can we make a stop on the way?
Of course. Add a stop for a colleague, a restaurant or a quick errand and the driver waits — just flag it at booking so the timing and fixed price allow for it.
What about getting to the Eurostar?
Yes — £45 to St Pancras, and worth it on a Eurostar morning: no changing lines with cases, no queue for a taxi at the far end. The driver knows the drop-off nearest check-in.
“He picked us up on time and was so helpful with all our luggage… He took us all over the countryside to the most amazing small villages. A 5-star experience from top to bottom!”
