On the day
Door to door, one fixed price.
Travelling to The Lanesborough, your driver meets you on the concourse at King's Cross Station with a name board, your train tracked. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: cars enter from Lanesborough Place, the private slip behind the hotel — guests never board on Hyde Park Corner itself.
Train tracked
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
Luggage handled
Between the The Lanesborough lobby and the concourse, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
Met in person
A named chauffeur with your board at King's Cross Station, and a car at the door at The Lanesborough — no rank, no app, no waiting on a stranger.
