The Mayfair Townhouse Chauffeur Service

The Mayfair Townhouse on Half Moon Street W1J is a boutique hotel occupying a row of Georgian townhouses on one of Mayfair's most characterful streets — the short street connecting Piccadilly to Curzon Street, lined with period buildings that once housed writers, diplomats, and Mayfair's Victorian professional class. Half Moon Street was famously Bertie Wooster's address in P.G. Wodehouse's stories, and retains the quiet, residential character of old Mayfair while sitting in one of London's most geographically central luxury positions: Green Park is 200 metres at the bottom of the street.

Green Park station (Victoria, Jubilee, and Piccadilly lines) is three minutes on foot. The Piccadilly Line to Heathrow runs directly but takes 52–58 minutes — a chauffeur from Half Moon Street to Terminal 5 is 45–55 minutes door-to-door. Bond Street and the Mayfair shopping district are eight minutes north. Imperial Ride handles all airport connections, Piccadilly and St James's circuit bookings, and theatre transfers from The Mayfair Townhouse.
