Amazing location! Next to Buckingham Palace and the Mall. Excellent service, clean, comfortable rooms. Close to restaurants, and Victoria Staion, The receptionists and the doormen were extremely helpful in whistling and flagging own cabs! A great experience.

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel offers it all! Excellent service from arrival until departure from all staffmembers. Located right next to Buckingham Palace (2 min. walk) and St. James' Park and 5 minute walk to Victoria Station and Underground this is the place to be if you fancy central location. The English Grill restaurant at the hotel serves a magnificent Beef Wellington and the possibility to enjoy a English tea experience at the hotel. I will select this hotel again any day of the week and twice on sundays.
Michael Holm, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were meant to stay for 4 days but sadly had to cut our stay short after the first night due to a family bereavement. On first impressions the hotel and its staff were very welcoming and friendly. The room a touch small but very clean and quite. Excellent location if you want to be in the heart of London. It felt we were staying in the Buckingham Palace courtyard lol. Shame we didn’t get to experience the hotel properly but hopefully we will back again another time.

John, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff is amazing. They take good care of their patrons. Was surprised to find out there is a 100$ held on your credit card for each night stay. Granted it’s returned to you at the end of your stay; just was not expecting this when we checked in as this was not made clear when we booked and paid for our stay prior to our arrival. Breakfast prices also not clear when you are viewing the menu. We ordered two omlets and coffee and the bill was over $100. We did not eat at any of the restaurants on site because of this. We found places to eat that were more affordable on the street.
