The London Taxi company deliver five star service at Millennium Chengdu

When the five star Millennium Hotel Chengdu in China opened its luxurious doors for the first time recently there was only one choice when it came to a gift from its sister hotels in London - the iconic London Taxi.

With Millennium Hotels in some of London’s most prosperous locations such as Grosvenor Square, Sloane Street, Kensington Road, the new complex in Chengdu was presented with a gift that truly represented the capital. The London taxi is globally recognised as the world’s finest taxi and offers the performance and comfort levels befitting the five star accommodation.

The two TX4 taxis given to the Millennium Chengdu, one in the traditional black colour and one in the special Champagne, take pride of place in front of the hotel gates. Services which can be offered thanks to the taxis, such as private airport pick-ups and one day tours to Chengdu's famous tourist destinations, help to enhance and promote the five star experience on offer to customers.

Mr. Shaun Hammond, general manager at the hotel said: “The London Taxis which are in use at Chengdu enhance our hotel’s international popularity, whilst also acknowledging the prestigious Millennium hotel which we have in London.”

“We are extremely excited to have received the gift of two London Taxis as they provide a very unique experience for all of our customers. The advanced features of the taxis make for a smooth and comfortable ride. The DVD players in the back of the taxi make it possible to show our guests what Chengdu has to offer when on their journey, whilst the integral wheelchair ramp makes the taxi easily accessible to all.”

Matthew Cheyne, International Market Development Director for The London Taxi Company, said: “Producing our taxis in China has given London Taxis a more global appeal and we are thrilled to see two of our TX4s in use at the Millennium Hotel Chengdu.”
