For guests arriving at The Mandrake, the journey in from the airport is exactly where a fixed-fare, pre-booked transfer earns its place. The Mandrake's understated facade blends into a quieter Fitzrovia street, so a driver who knows exactly where the door is makes arrival simple. A RushXO transfer takes the whole problem off your hands: met in arrivals after a tracked flight, driven directly to the door, with every toll already built into a price locked at the moment you book — no queue with luggage, no cross-city connection, no surge-priced app after a long flight.

The Mandrake is at 20-21 Newman Street, Fitzrovia, London W1T 1PG. Tottenham Court Road and Goodge Street are both about a five-minute walk. We deliver you door-to-door to the exact entrance you need, and run the return to any airport on the same fixed-fare basis.
The hotel's residential-style facade is easy to walk past; we set you down right at the entrance on Newman Street rather than leaving you to find it with luggage.
With limited parking around the hotel, a door-to-door drop-off that pulls in, unloads and leaves is the easiest way to arrive — especially with luggage after a long flight. Give us the full details at booking and we plan the approach around it.
We run the return leg to any London airport on the same fixed-fare basis, collecting you from The Mandrake at the time you need and tracking your departure so you arrive in good time.
Book both legs together and we hold your driver details for the return.

On-demand apps surge exactly when you most need to travel — early mornings, late nights, holidays and bad weather, which is precisely when guests and travellers arrive. A RushXO fare does the opposite: calculated on genuine road distance, quoted as a single fixed figure at booking, and never altered.
The Mandrake is a bohemian boutique hotel in Fitzrovia — a moody, design-led retreat built around a courtyard of hanging jasmine, with the YOPO restaurant and Waeska Bar. It sits within the Congestion Charge zone with no guest car park, so a door-to-door drop-off is the easiest way to arrive.
The Mandrake's facade deliberately blends into Newman Street and Fitzrovia's streets are one-way in places, so a local driver who knows the door sets you down right by it. Whether you are arriving for sightseeing, a city break or business, the journey is far simpler in one vehicle than split across the Underground with its stairs and changes. A single RushXO saloon, executive car or MPV carries your whole party and luggage door-to-door for one fixed fare. For families travelling together we can arrange several vehicles on the same basis, and child seats and boosters are provided free on request.
A pre-booked RushXO transfer is named and identifiable to you in advance: your driver holds an enhanced DBS check as a condition of their TfL Private Hire licence and operates a fully insured, logged vehicle. You receive the driver's name, number, and the vehicle's make, model and registration before pickup. A female chauffeur can be requested for lone or late-night travellers.
