What to expect
Door to door, one fixed price.

Luggage handled
Between the The Connaught lobby and the concourse, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.

From £45 for a saloon, agreed before you book — the same fare holds in the opposite direction, and larger vehicles are priced up front too.
Could the fare go up if the roads are bad?
No. The fare is fixed the moment you book; traffic, roadworks and the hour of day are our problem, not yours.

Carlos Place curves privately past the front door, and the hotel’s doormen manage the kerb — your chauffeur is signalled in the moment you appear.
How long should I allow?
The drive is typically 10–20 min. For departures add a comfortable margin for boarding — we're happy to advise a pickup time when you book.
Do you cover the journey back too?
Yes — returns are welcome and often discounted, and inbound legs are tracked so a delay never strands you.
