The ultimate von Essen drive experience with Dream Car Hire
For the James Bonds, Lewis Hamiltons and Penelope Pitstops in all of us…!
Do you have a need for speed? Like to feel the wind in your hair? Do you get a goosebumps from the smell of immaculate leather interiors or on hearing the purr of a ‘Big Cat’ engine?...
The von Essen hotels collection has just the ticket to make you feel like a VIP and fulfil your every motorcar dream. Through an exclusive partnership with Dream Car Hire, von Essen has created the ultimate drive experience.
Whether for a special occasion, a long weekend or a corporate away day, guests will be spoilt for choice, with the world’s finest supercars, sports, classic and luxury cars at their fingertips. Combined with a stay at one of the collection’s 29 luxury hotels in the UK or France, a von Essen hotel Dream Car break will make for the most memorable of experiences.
von Essen hotels and Dream Car Hire will offer a range of bespoke programmes on an individual or group basis to suit every guests’ need, from delivering the chosen car direct to guests’ homes, meeting them off a flight or arranging for the car to be waiting for their ‘temporary owners’ at their von Essen hotel of choice.
Quality, professionalism and first-class service are hallmarks of von Essen hotels, which combines the most stunning locations and surroundings with properties that are architecturally breathtaking and individually charming. From the small and intimate to the grand and gracious, from creating a feeling of a return to a bygone era of grandeur and gentle opulence to a more relaxed, informal country house experience, there is a hotel to suit everyone tastes and for every occasion.
Likewise, with this new partnership, there is a car to suit every taste; from an Aston Martin DB9 or Bentley GT convertible to a Porsche Cayenne, Ferrari 430 F1 or a Lamborghini Gallardo, guests will be spoilt for choice. Dream Cars’ extensive fleet is regularly updated with the latest models and is meticulously maintained by the in-house team.
Driving maps have been created with local driving routes, scenic roads and local highlights to enhance the driving experience in some of the most beautiful parts of the country, from the Royal County of Berkshire to the romantic Cotswolds.
