Airport Meet and Greet for The Tower Hotel

If you would like your driver to meet you inside the airport arrivals hall, ask about our optional airport meet-and-greet service when requesting a quotation.

Under an agreed meet-and-greet arrangement, the driver meets the arriving passenger at the designated arrivals meeting point, subject to the airport’s access rules and the booking instructions. This is different from a standard pickup at an agreed vehicle collection point.

Confirm the service charge, included waiting period, parking arrangements and instructions for contacting your driver before completing your booking. Airport pickup procedures and any additional charges should be agreed in advance.

For a smoother arrival, keep your phone available after landing and follow the driver’s agreed meeting instructions. If your flight is delayed or your arrival arrangements change, contact the booking office or driver using the agreed contact details.

Choose the Right Vehicle for Your Hotel Transfer

Selecting the correct vehicle helps make your journey more comfortable and reduces the risk of luggage or seating problems. Heathrow Gatwick Cars can consider different vehicle categories according to the journey, passenger requirements and vehicle availability.

Saloon car

A saloon may suit an individual, couple or small group travelling with a manageable amount of luggage. Confirm the number and size of suitcases before booking, as boot capacity varies by vehicle.

Estate car

An estate car may provide additional luggage capacity compared with some saloon vehicles. It can be worth considering when passengers have several suitcases but do not need a larger people carrier.

MPV or people carrier

An MPV may be appropriate for families or small groups who need additional passenger space. The exact seating configuration and luggage capacity must be confirmed for the vehicle allocated.

Executive and chauffeur-style vehicles

Travellers attending business meetings, special occasions or corporate events can enquire about available executive vehicles. Specify your preferred vehicle category, passenger count and luggage requirements so the quotation reflects your needs.

Important: Never assume that a vehicle can carry a particular number of passengers and suitcases based solely on its category. Confirm capacity, child-seat requirements and availability before the journey.

Business Travel, Meetings and Events at The Tower Hotel

The Tower Hotel’s riverside location makes it a convenient destination for some business meetings, conferences, private functions and visits to the City of London. If you are attending an event, allow time for traffic and confirm your meeting schedule before arranging your transfer.

Corporate travellers can request quotations for airport pickups, hotel transfers and other pre-booked journeys. For multiple passengers or group travel, provide the number of people, luggage requirements, pickup schedule and any return journeys so the transport arrangements can be assessed accurately.

If you require several journeys during a business visit, ask about arranging the itinerary in advance. Each journey, pickup time, waiting requirement and applicable charge should be confirmed before the booking is finalised.
