W London to Eurotunnel Folkestone · Hotel route
A fixed-price chauffeur between W London and Eurotunnel Folkestone — 73 miles, typically 2h 10–3h 05, in either direction. Booked in advance, met in person, sailing tracked on the way in.

How it works
Travelling to W London, your driver meets you at the Eurotunnel Folkestone passenger terminal with a name board, your sailing tracked. Leaving the hotel, the car waits at the door: the W’s entrance sits at Wardour Street’s south end where stopping is brief; drivers stage on Whitcomb Street and roll up on your message.
A named chauffeur with your board at Eurotunnel Folkestone, and a car at the door at W London — no rank, no app, no waiting on a stranger.
Between the W London lobby and the quay, the cases are the driver’s job, not yours.
Inbound legs are tracked live; the pickup shifts to your real arrival at no extra cost.
Tolls — plus the Congestion Charge and ULEZ where the route applies — sit inside the quoted fare.
