London Stansted Airport Private Transfer to Hotel

Your driver meets you in the arrivals hall with your name on a sign.

A private, one-way transfer from London Stansted Airport to your central London City hotel, with a professional driver and door-to-door service. Book before you travel and provide your flight details and hotel address at checkout. Your transfer is confirmed instantly. The driver meets you in the arrivals hall 45 to 60 minutes after you land, depending on customs and baggage clearance. The service runs 24 hours, seven days a week for groups of one to six passengers.

The experience

When you land at Stansted, head through customs and immigration to the arrivals hall. Look for a representative holding a blue Airport Transfers sign with your name on it near the designated meeting points in each terminal. They'll be waiting 45 to 60 minutes after your actual flight arrival time. Once you meet your driver, you travel door-to-door to your hotel in an air-conditioned private vehicle: no shared stops, no other passengers, no waiting for a minibus to fill up.

The transfer takes roughly two hours depending on the time of day and traffic, though the exact duration varies. If your flight is delayed and you're held up in customs, call the transfer company toll-free before 90 minutes have passed from your landing time. Transfers are held until that point. The service operates around the clock to match whatever time your flight arrives, so whether you land at dawn or midnight, a vehicle is waiting for you.

Child seats are available for an additional cost and must be requested when you book. Infants can travel on an adult's lap under UK law. Large items like skis, surfboards, and non-foldable wheelchairs cannot be carried. If you're traveling with more luggage than airline standard (one suitcase and one carry-on per person), mention it at booking so the company can confirm your vehicle has the space.
