Hotel transfers made simple
Richmond is a popular base for visitors. It is close to Heathrow, has easy links into central London, and offers Richmond Park, Kew Gardens and the riverside on the doorstep. Many visitors stay in hotels on Richmond Hill, by the river or in the town centre, and need a reliable way to get to and from them.
A hotel transfer taxi in Richmond is a pre-booked car that picks you up from your hotel entrance, or takes you there from the airport, at a price agreed in advance.
Common hotel transfers
- Airport to hotel. Land at Heathrow or Gatwick and be taken straight to your hotel.
- Hotel to airport. An early pick-up from the hotel for your flight home.
- Hotel to station. For example, to Waterloo or Paddington for onward trains.
- Hotel to venue. Weddings, conferences, Twickenham Stadium on match days, or dinner in town.
- Between hotels. Moving from a central London hotel to Richmond, or the other way round.
How to book
- Enter the hotel name and address as your pick-up or drop-off.
- Add your flight or train number if you are arriving.
- Tell us the number of passengers and bags.
- Add any notes, such as the room name for a wedding or event.
If you are booking for a guest, for example a visiting relative or colleague, add their name and mobile number so the driver can contact them.
Pick-ups from your hotel
The driver will meet you at the hotel entrance at the agreed time. Some hotels have a drive or forecourt where cars can wait. Others are on busy streets where the driver can only stop briefly, so please be ready a few minutes early with your bags.
If you need an early start for a flight, it is a good idea to tell the hotel reception too, so they know a car is coming.
Arriving at the airport
For airport pick-ups, you can request meet and greet. The driver parks and meets you in the arrivals area, then takes you to your hotel. Airport parking time is usually added to the quote for this.
For hotels and event organisers
Hotels, wedding planners and event organisers sometimes need several cars at once for guests. Call us to discuss your needs. For groups, 6 seater and 7 seater vehicles can help keep people together.
