On the day
Met at the door, settled in advance.
Stratton Street is short and one-way; cars wait directly at the awning, and the doormen turn the kerb over briskly on event nights.
At your disposal
Hold the chauffeur by the hour for meetings, the shops or a long evening — quoted up front, the car waiting between stops.
Met at the door
Your chauffeur stands at The May Fair exactly where the doormen expect pre-booked cars — no circling the block, no phone tag, no scanning the rank.
No meter, ever
Airport, station or cruise terminal, the fare is agreed before you set off — tolls and London charges already counted in.

Worth knowing
Good to know about The May Fair.
Local timing
During awards season the hotel fills with delegations — block bookings with sequenced cars are the arrangement that keeps a red-carpet evening calm.
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.
Through the front desk
Happy to work directly with the The May Fair concierge — standing arrangements, account billing and repeat bookings for regular guests are all straightforward.
The inbound leg
Flying in, your chauffeur meets you in arrivals with a name board, tracks the flight, and delivers you to The May Fair rested — 60 minutes of airport waiting always included.
The rail alternative
The closest station is Green Park (Jubilee, Piccadilly, Victoria). 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.
What’s in the fare
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.
Arriving and leaving The May Fair well
There's a particular letdown in leaving somewhere like The May Fair Hotel — Mayfair since 1927, celebrated for its screening room and Stratton Street glamour — only to argue with a meter on the way out. Booking a chauffeur removes it. The fare is settled up front, the car is chosen for the address, and the driver already knows which door is yours.
Stratton Street is short and one-way; cars wait directly at the awning, and the doormen turn the kerb over briskly on event nights. From there, Heathrow is usually 40–55 min away, with Gatwick, the other London airports, the mainline termini and the south-coast cruise ports all quoted before you ride. Fly in and the pattern reverses — a name board in arrivals (at the airport, never the lobby), the flight tracked, and an hour of waiting built in so a slow carousel stays the driver's problem, not yours.
During awards season the hotel fills with delegations — block bookings with sequenced cars are the arrangement that keeps a red-carpet evening calm. That's the whole of it: agree the fare, forget the meter, and let the driver mind the route while you mind the day. Berkeley Square, Green Park, The Royal Academy all sit within easy reach, and an hourly booking turns them into an afternoon rather than three separate fares.

What does a car from The May Fair to Heathrow cost?
We quote £55 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.
Which entrance should I use at The May Fair?
Stratton Street is short and one-way; cars wait directly at the awning, and the doormen turn the kerb over briskly on event nights.
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.
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.
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.
Can you collect me for a very early flight?
No hour is too early. We run right through the night, which suits the first Heathrow wave and the red-eye crowd — book it, then sleep; the car will be there.
Can the hotel concierge arrange this for me?
Yes — we work with hotel concierges constantly, standing arrangements and account billing included. If you'd rather keep it in your own hands, the online form or a call to 020 7993 6739 takes a minute.
“Always had great conversations with the drivers during the multiple trips I had with P5. I strongly recommend.”
