Hounslow sits right next to the busiest airport in Europe, and that makes it one of London's biggest hotel neighbourhoods. Many travellers stay on the Bath Road hotel strip, at the hotels linked to Heathrow's terminals or in Hounslow town centre before an early flight. Others land at Heathrow and head straight into a hotel in Kensington, Mayfair or the City. A hotel transfer taxi takes care of every one of those trips.
Airport to hotel, hotel to airport
Heathrow's hotel shuttle buses work for some people, but they run to their own timetable and stop at several hotels on the way. A private transfer leaves when you are ready. Your driver tracks your flight, waits in the arrivals hall with a name board if you choose meet and greet, and takes you directly to the hotel door.
The return trip is just as simple. Give us the hotel name and your flight time and we suggest a pick-up time that allows for check-in and security. From most hotels on the Bath Road the drive to Terminals 2 and 3 is typically 10 to 15 minutes, while Terminal 5 can take a little longer at busy times.
Who books hotel transfers?
- Business travellers moving between an airport hotel and an office in London or the Thames Valley.
- Families staying the night before an early flight.
- Wedding parties and event guests travelling between a venue and their hotel.
- Cabin crew and aviation staff with early or late shifts.
- Older travellers who want help with bags from the lobby to the car.
Executive and senior-friendly travel
For a client meeting or an important guest, choose an executive saloon. Drivers dress smartly, help with luggage and keep the cabin quiet so you can take a call or rest. Older passengers can ask for extra time at pick-up and help to and from the hotel entrance; just note it when you book.
Hotel to central London and stations
Not every hotel trip involves the airport. Guests staying in Hounslow often travel into town for a show, a meeting or a train. Our drivers regularly run from Hounslow hotels to Paddington, Victoria and the West End. The usual route is along the A4 Great West Road and Cromwell Road, which typically takes 45 to 70 minutes depending on the time of day.
If your onward journey is from another airport, for example a business trip that ends at London City Airport, we can plan the whole day: hotel to meeting, meeting to airport, all with fixed fares.
Tip: when you book a hotel pick-up, give us the hotel's full name and postcode. Several hotel chains have more than one property around Heathrow, and the right postcode avoids a mix-up.
Groups and extra luggage
Travelling as a group? A 7 seater taxi or 8 seater MPV carries a full party and their cases in one vehicle, which is often cheaper than two saloons. Golf bags, ski bags and pushchairs fit too, as long as you tell us in advance.
Paying and receipts
You can pay by card or cash, and a receipt is available for expense claims. The fare is agreed when you book, so a slow run along Bath Road at rush hour does not cost you more.
