London for business travellers and executives: a practical guide with 2026 prices

From the people who meet you in arrivals. Prices checked October 2026.

From the plane to the meeting

Driver in arrivals with your name (or your company’s), flight tracked, 60 minutes’ free waiting, receipt by email before you reach the car. Executive saloons (Mercedes E-Class, BMW 5 Series) and V-Class MPVs with Wi-Fi and chargers; quiet, no small talk unless you want it. Account billing, cost-centre references and monthly invoicing for companies: see Rushxo for Business.

Where business London is

The City and Canary Wharf (banking, law, insurance), King’s Cross (Google, tech), Shoreditch (start-ups), Mayfair (hedge funds, private equity), Westminster (government), White City and Paddington (media, pharma). Typical fixed fares: Heathrow to Canary Wharf or the City from about £95–£110; Gatwick to the City from about £110; City to Heathrow at 06:00 with a pre-booked car avoids the Elizabeth line’s first-train gap.

Hotels, meeting rooms, late nights

Business hotels: The Ned, Andaz and Four Seasons Trinity Square (City); Marriott and Hilton (Canary Wharf); Great Northern and Standard (King’s Cross). Meeting rooms by the hour at Regus and WeWork. We run late-night dinner pickups and 05:00 airport runs at the same fixed price – no night surcharge.

Roadshows and multi-stop days

Half-day and full-day hire with the driver waiting: investor roadshows, site visits, client dinners, conference shuttles (ExCeL, Olympia, QEII Centre). One invoice, one contact.
