A Coffee House That Became a Hotel, Then Moved House
From Mail Coaches to a Piccadilly Hotel
The Berkeley began as the Gloucester Coffee House on the corner of Piccadilly and Berkeley Street, a rendezvous point for mail coaches heading west out of London, before formally becoming The Berkeley Hotel in 1897.
The Whole Hotel Relocated in 1972
Rather than close, The Berkeley moved entirely to a new building on Wilton Place, Knightsbridge, in 1972, designed by Brian O’Rorke, an architect better known for luxury ocean liner interiors. The site had previously served as stables for the Grenadier Guards. The rooftop pool installed that year remained London’s only hotel rooftop pool for decades.
Why Choose The Berkeley Hotel Chauffeur Service
Arriving at The Berkeley by taxi or rideshare rarely matches the standard the hotel sets on Wilton Place. Choosing a dedicated Berkeley hotel chauffeur service turns your arrival into a calm, coordinated experience, with a driver who understands the hotel’s protocol and the surrounding Knightsbridge streets.
Avoid Knightsbridge Traffic and the Congestion Charge Zone
Knightsbridge and the surrounding Wilton Place area sit inside the Transport for London Congestion Charge zone, and self-driving guests often face slow traffic and scarce parking near the hotel. Our Berkeley hotel chauffeur service handles the charge, the route and the parking, so you simply step out at the door.
The Standard for Berkeley Doorman Arrivals
The Berkeley’s doormen are known for a precise, formal welcome on Wilton Place. A professional Berkeley hotel chauffeur arrives with the same timing and formality, coordinating directly with the hotel’s front-of-house team so your luggage and arrival are handled without delay.
How Our Berkeley Hotel Chauffeur Works
We have refined our logistics so that your Berkeley hotel chauffeur transfer is as polished as the hotel itself, from pickup to a coordinated arrival on Wilton Place.
Door-to-Door Pickup
Your journey begins with a punctual arrival at your home, office or airport terminal. Your chauffeur assists with luggage and ensures a smooth, relaxed departure towards Knightsbridge.
Doorman & Arrival Coordination
On approach to The Berkeley, your chauffeur coordinates timing with the hotel's doorman team, ensuring your bags and arrival are handled the moment you step out.
VIP Drop-off on Wilton Place
We set you down directly outside the hotel's Wilton Place entrance, avoiding the walk and wait associated with public transport or standard taxis.

Harrods & Dining Transfers for Berkeley Guests
Beyond arrivals and departures, our Berkeley hotel chauffeur service supports the full rhythm of a Knightsbridge stay, from Harrods shopping to executive meetings across the city.
Harrods Shopping Transfers
Harrods is a short walk from The Berkeley. We provide a waiting luxury shopping chauffeur so your purchases travel back to the hotel with you.
Fine Dining Transfers
Whether dining at Marcus Wareing at The Berkeley or exploring Knightsbridge's wider dining scene, your chauffeur waits and returns you to the hotel on your schedule.
Corporate Guest Transfers
For business guests staying at The Berkeley, our chauffeur service connects seamlessly to meetings in the City, Canary Wharf or across Mayfair.
Late-Night Return Service
London evenings rarely run to a fixed schedule. Your chauffeur remains on flexible standby for a late return to the hotel, whenever your evening ends.
The Berkeley Drop-off & Pickup Points
Wilton Place Main Entrance
The primary drop-off for The Berkeley sits directly on Wilton Place, beneath the hotel’s canopy, where the doorman team is positioned to greet arriving guests immediately.
Knightsbridge, Side Approach
For a quieter arrival away from the main Wilton Place frontage, the Knightsbridge side offers a discreet alternative approach, favoured for early morning or VIP check-ins.
Belgrave Square, Alternative Pickup
When Wilton Place is congested, the Belgrave Square corner provides an efficient alternative pickup point just a short walk from the hotel entrance.
Post-Event Pickup
After a theatre evening or late dinner, your chauffeur coordinates a pre-agreed pickup point near the hotel for a swift, unhurried return.
