Loved by The Stafford London Hotel guests
"My lady who is quite small found the bed quite high to get into (as usual, they really are quite high) but one of the most comfortable of any hotel we've stayed in, ever."
"The location is just fantastic - short walks to Green Park and the tube (through the Queen's passage, a tunnel just outside the front door of the hotel that takes you into the park), Buckingham Palace, Westminster, and Piccadilly Circus."
"Awesome location in the heart of St James, an easy walk to Piccadilly, Mayfair, and Covent Garden."

Its location places guests within easy reach of Green Park and Buckingham Palace. The American Bar seals the deal, promising world-class cocktails in a historic setting; I can't think of a better spot for an evening in London.”

Acceptable Stay with Some Issues
acceptable locationsmall roomcramped bathroom
The location was acceptable being near transportation options.
My room was quite small the bathroom felt cramped and barely functional. Opening the windows was impossible resulting in stale air within the room. The view consisted of a wall a mere two meters away so I found that disappointing.

great locationhelpful staffbeautiful restaurant
The hotel has a great location near the tube station and Buckingham Palace. The staff was accommodating and helpful . I received a room upgrade, a gesture that improved my experience. I enjoyed the beautiful restaurant, indoor bar, and outdoor bar space.
The breakfast setup could be better. A la carte options are available, but a single slice of toast costs extra. It might be beneficial to include breakfast in the room price or offer a fixed-price option.
