How it works
Met at the door, settled in advance.
Savoy Court, the hotel’s private approach off the Strand, is famously the only street in Britain where traffic keeps to the right — your chauffeur pulls up directly at the front doors.
A car at the kerb
Your chauffeur stands at The Savoy exactly where the doormen expect pre-booked cars — no circling the block, no phone tag, no scanning the rank.
No satnav guesswork
Our chauffeurs know Strand — which entrance takes a car, which street is one-way, and how to reach London City without the scenic detour.
Executive standard
Clean, current, unbranded cars and chauffeurs who understand that the best service is the kind you barely notice.

Local knowledge
Good to know about The Savoy.
Getting the hour right
Theatre traffic thickens the Strand from around 6pm on show nights; for an evening Heathrow departure, allow an extra fifteen minutes or ask us to route along the Embankment.
The neighbours
Covent Garden, Somerset House, The National Gallery, Waterloo Bridge are all close by — several walkable, the rest a short run with the car held between stops.
Nearest Underground
The closest station is Covent Garden and Charing Cross. 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.
Billed to the room
Happy to work directly with the The Savoy concierge — standing arrangements, account billing and repeat bookings for regular guests are all straightforward.
Groups & events
For weddings, board dinners and delegations we run coordinated multi-car pickups from the door — one booking, one invoice, every guest accounted for.
Getting to and from The Savoy
There's a particular letdown in leaving somewhere like The Savoy — the Strand since 1889, celebrated for the American Bar and its river-view suites — 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.
Savoy Court, the hotel’s private approach off the Strand, is famously the only street in Britain where traffic keeps to the right — your chauffeur pulls up directly at the front doors. 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.
Theatre traffic thickens the Strand from around 6pm on show nights; for an evening Heathrow departure, allow an extra fifteen minutes or ask us to route along the Embankment. That's the whole of it: agree the fare, forget the meter, and let the driver mind the route while you mind the day. Covent Garden, Somerset House, The National Gallery all sit within easy reach, and an hourly booking turns them into an afternoon rather than three separate fares.

How much is a chauffeur from The Savoy to Heathrow?
Expect £60 for a saloon to Heathrow and £75 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 Savoy?
Savoy Court, the hotel’s private approach off the Strand, is famously the only street in Britain where traffic keeps to the right — your chauffeur pulls up directly at the front doors.
Why book a car rather than take the tube?
Covent Garden and Charing Cross is closest on foot. The tube's fine unladen, but hauling luggage down to a platform, changing once or twice, then queuing for a cab at the far end rarely saves the time it promises — which is the gap the car fills.
Can I keep the car by the hour instead?
Yes, and many guests prefer it — a chauffeur at your disposal for meetings, shopping or an evening, waiting between stops. Quoted up front, it usually beats booking each leg separately.
Which cars can I choose from?
Plenty of choice. If it's an impression that matters — a client, an occasion — the First Class S-Class does it; for everyday comfort the Executive is ideal. Tell us the day and we'll suggest the right one.
How long does it take from The Savoy to Heathrow?
Reckon on 45 min–1h in ordinary traffic. Your chauffeur reads the live picture and, for a flight that won't wait, names the departure time rather than leaving you to guess. London City is the closest airport to the door, about 20–30 min away.
Can you collect me for a very early flight?
We're 24/7. For the first departure of the day your chauffeur is outside The Savoy before the lobby has properly woken, at the same fixed fare as any other hour.
“Professional, reliable, and always on time. P5 Chauffeurs never lets you down.”
