Taxi or train from Bank?

The public-transport version starts at Bank (Central, Northern, Waterloo & City and the DLR) and finishes at South Kensington (District, Circle and Piccadilly), with a 12-minute walk at the far end. The catch is that it is a pleasant walk in daylight and much less so leaving late. A car does the whole thing door to door in about 20 min, or 40 min when the roads are full - and it does it with your bags in the boot. If you are travelling light and early, the train usually wins on price. If you are in a group, carrying anything, or leaving after an event, the car wins on everything else.

The route

From the EC2, EC3, EC4 streets the route runs via the A10 then the A1211, finishing on A4 Cromwell Road, then Exhibition Road. About 5 miles in all - 20 min when it flows, 40 min when it does not.

In Bank the pavement outside your door is often the one place a car cannot stop. We agree the point in EC2, EC3, EC4 up front and the driver is on it, not circling.

Where the driver waits at Royal Albert Hall

Prince Consort Road, behind the Hall - Kensington Gore is red route with no waiting. Kensington Gore is a red route where a car cannot legally wait, so the pickup is always around the back on Prince Consort Road. Your driver sends the exact standing point and the registration before they set off, so you are not circling a car park looking for a number plate.

Address: Kensington Gore, South Kensington, SW7 2AP.

Parking at Royal Albert Hall

Parking at Royal Albert Hall is limited and the surrounding streets are metered or permit-only, so self-driving usually costs more in time than the fare saves. Being dropped at the door and collected at an agreed point removes the whole problem.

When to leave Bank

Doors are usually an hour before the concert. Working back, that means leaving Bank around 40 min plus that hour on a busy night - and booking the return at the same time, because the road out is slower than the road in.

What the fare includes

Luggage loaded and carried, with no per-bag extras
Your fare locked at the moment you book - no meter, no surge, no event-night loading
Tolls, congestion and crossing charges already inside the quoted price
Card, bank transfer or business account, with a VAT receipt
60 minutes' free waiting on airport pickups, with the flight tracked

Bank to Royal Albert Hall: common questions

How much is a taxi from Bank to Royal Albert Hall?

£77 in a saloon, £98 in a 6-seat MPV and £187 in a V Class. That is the fixed price, agreed at booking.

Is it quicker than public transport from Bank?

Door to door the car is about 20 min off-peak. The rail alternative is Bank to South Kensington plus the walk, which is competitive going out and considerably slower coming back.

Where does the driver wait at Royal Albert Hall?

Prince Consort Road, behind the Hall - Kensington Gore is red route with no waiting. You get the exact point and the registration by text beforehand.

Can I book the return from Royal Albert Hall as well?

Yes, and it is the leg worth booking. The driver is in position before you come out instead of you joining the queue that forms the moment it ends.

How do I pay?

Card, bank transfer or a business account, before or after the journey. A VAT receipt is issued either way.

Is the price affected by traffic or the time of night?

No. The fare is fixed when you book. Traffic, tolls and the hour are our problem, not a line on your bill.

What if the concert overruns?

The driver waits. We watch venue finish times rather than working to a fixed clock, so a late curtain does not leave you stranded or cost you extra.
