Leading corporate organisations book their transport with us
Looking for reliable group travel around central London? Minibus Hire Marylebone from Private Coach Hire makes moving a small group effortless — whether you’re heading to a wedding on Chiltern Street, an early train from Marylebone station, or a corporate offsite near Baker Street. Imagine stepping into a clean, air-conditioned minibus while your driver deals with parking and route planning. Sounds relaxing, doesn’t it?
We know Marylebone; we live and breathe London travel. Why choose Private Coach Hire? Because we combine local knowledge with a national network of operators so your journey is punctual, safe and tailored. Our drivers are DBS-checked, fully insured and experienced in group travel. We offer 24/7 availability and can handle last-minute changes — perfect for events, early flights or evening returns from Soho or Fitzrovia.
Our fleet ranges from compact 8–12 seaters up to 15–16 seater executive minibuses. If you’re wondering whether you need an 8-seater or a 16-seater, think about passenger numbers, luggage and comfort — and we’ll advise you. Fleet and features include reclining seats, USB charging ports, tinted windows, generous luggage storage and onboard entertainment options for longer runs to airports.
Comfort matters. Expect reclining seats, climate control, and space to stretch on those journeys to Paddington or the O2. For executive bookings we offer leather seating and extra legroom. If you'd rather not drive, choose a Fleet and features model with a professional chauffeur and enjoy the ride.
Safety is non-negotiable. All drivers are DBS-checked, hold the correct licences and are trained in group handling and customer care. Vehicles receive regular inspections and servicing. We prioritise smooth journeys and punctual service every time.
Booking early secures the best vehicles for busy weekends and popular event dates. Need help choosing a vehicle? Use our simple rule: allow one seat per person plus room for luggage — families and sports groups often need extra space. If you’ve got complex itineraries or multiple pickups across Fitzrovia, Soho and St John’s Wood, we can coordinate several vehicles so your whole party travels together.
How does a chauffeur-driven minibus stack up against other choices? Plainly: it’s the sweet spot for groups. Compared with cars, you travel together and save on parking and multiple fares. Against self-drive vans, you have a skilled driver who knows London’s peak-time shortcuts and restrictions. Compared with full-size coaches, a minibus is often better for narrow Marylebone streets and short city transfers. See the table below for a clear comparison.
| Vehicle type | Best for | Typical seats | Driver provided | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chauffeur-driven minibus | Group transfers, weddings, airport runs | 8–16 | Yes | Convenient, no parking stress, comfortable | Higher cost than self-drive for very short trips |
| Full-size coach | Large tours, long-distance charters | 30–70+ | Yes | High capacity, spacious | Harder to manoeuvre in central London |
| Car / taxi | Small groups or door-to-door | 1–4 | Yes | Flexible for singles or pairs | Multiple vehicles needed for groups, cost adds up |
| Self-drive van | DIY moves, flexible schedules | 2–9 | No | Cost-effective if you drive | Driver fatigue, parking and route stress |
From airport minibus transfers to school trips, corporate travel, weddings and match-day runs — we do it all. Planning a stag or hen party in Soho? Need a smooth transfer to a conference in Paddington? Fancy a family day trip to Regent’s Park? Our Occasions we cover span private customers and business clients alike, with flexible options for both local trips and nationwide travel.
We’re based around the heart of the West End, so Marylebone & nearby areas like Fitzrovia, Soho, Paddington, St John’s Wood and even Dagenham are part of our daily routes. We’re familiar with Marylebone station’s short-term parking, the best set-down points near hotels such as The Landmark, and the quickest ways out to ring roads for airport runs. That local awareness keeps journeys smooth and on time.
A quick story — last summer a bride’s planner called at 07:00 asking for two minibuses because their supplier van had broken down. We re-routed, collected guests from Baker Street and Chiltern Street, and the wedding still started on time. Small details like that are why local knowledge matters.
We offer transparent pricing and honest advice. Costs depend on vehicle size, journey length and timings (early starts or late returns sometimes have small surcharges). For busy weekends or large events, book early to secure the best rates. We also provide a clear breakdown so you know what you’re paying for: vehicle, driver, mileage and any meet-and-greet or waiting time.
