On the day
Met at the door, settled in advance.
Argyle Street, the hotel’s own side, is far calmer than Euston Road; cars wait at the door and the ride out is planned around the one-way grid.
Quiet and discreet
Clean, current, unbranded cars and chauffeurs who understand that the best service is the kind you barely notice.
Waiting when you are
Your chauffeur stands at The Standard exactly where the doormen expect pre-booked cars — no circling the block, no phone tag, no scanning the rank.
Flight tracked inbound
Landing into London? We meet you in arrivals with a board and bring you to The Standard on the real arrival time, an hour of waiting built in.
Choose your car
The Standard from £47.

Worth knowing
Good to know about The Standard.
Local timing
For early Luton flights this is one of the best-placed hotels in London — straight up the A1/M1 with the airport typically 40 minutes away.
For arriving guests
Flying in, your chauffeur meets you in arrivals with a name board, tracks the flight, and delivers you to The Standard rested — 60 minutes of airport waiting always included.
The rail alternative
The closest station is King’s Cross St Pancras. 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.
No kerbside extras
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.
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.
The neighbours
St Pancras International, King’s Cross, The British Library, Bloomsbury are all close by — several walkable, the rest a short run with the car held between stops.
Getting to and from The Standard
The Standard, London has anchored King’s Cross since 2019, known above all for its brutalist former Camden Town Hall annexe and red exterior lift. 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.
Argyle Street, the hotel’s own side, is far calmer than Euston Road; cars wait at the door and the ride out is planned around the one-way grid. Allow roughly 45 min–1h 05 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.
For early Luton flights this is one of the best-placed hotels in London — straight up the A1/M1 with the airport typically 40 minutes away. That's the whole of it: agree the fare, forget the meter, and let the driver mind the route while you mind the day. St Pancras International, King’s Cross, The British Library 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 Standard to Heathrow?
A saloon to Heathrow starts at £47, and that figure is the whole of it: tolls, tracking and an hour's waiting included. Gatwick runs from £47. You see the price before you commit, not after the journey.
Where does the car wait at The Standard?
Argyle Street, the hotel’s own side, is far calmer than Euston Road; cars wait at the door and the ride out is planned around the one-way grid.
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 Standard before the lobby has properly woken, at the same fixed fare as any other hour.
Do you carry seats for children?
We carry them at no charge; just tell us the ages and rough weights. The seats are fitted and checked before pickup, so there's no wrestling with straps at the King’s Cross kerb.
How long does it take from The Standard to Heathrow?
Reckon on 45 min–1h 05 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 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.
Can we make a stop on the way?
Multiple pickups and stops are no trouble. Guests often gather a group across King’s Cross or run an errand en route to the airport — arrange it ahead and it's simply part of the one fixed fare.
“I use P5 Chauffeurs every time I fly into and out of London. I'm impressed by their reliability, punctuality, and all-around professionalism. P5 is always my first choice.”
