ExCeL London and the Docklands hotels are LCY's closest neighbours — a two-mile, £29 run that's over before the seatbelt sign is a memory. For the conference delegate or exhibitor, it's the definition of a short hop.
Meet & greet at LCY arrivals · 60 min free waiting
When your hotel is close enough to see from the runway, the value isn't distance — it's the meet-and-greet, the luggage help, and a fixed fare that doesn't spike during a big ExCeL show.
The big exhibitions and conferences at ExCeL fill the Docklands hotels — dropped at your hall or hotel entrance, exhibitor cases and stand materials handled, no event-week surge on the fare.
The Custom House, Royal Victoria and peninsula hotels are minutes from the LCY forecourt — a fixed £29 that beats dragging luggage along the DLR for one or two stops.
Conference travel wants receipts and reliability — itemised VAT receipts as standard, corporate accounts for exhibitors and organisers via the business page.
Flying in, exhibiting, flying out same-day? Book both legs at once — LCY's tiny terminal means the return kerb-to-gate is minutes.
Confirmed at booking — no meter, no surge, tolls and the LCY drop-off fee inside the quote.
Give us the flight — the driver meets you at arrivals with the fare already fixed.
