Using Uber and other services to/from luxury hotels

On top of this, a lot of airlines now offer complimentary chauffeur service to/from the airport in J and F. My first point of call would be to contact the hotel, yet if the fee is insane I'll look elsewhere.
Uber Black has definitely changed the equation. I won't always take the hotel car and will price shop as well. The best hotels will welcome you regardless and not discriminate that you came there in an Uber.
