We moved to the Sofitel from the Walforf Hilton where the hotel was dark and dingy... The Sofitel by contrast was inviting, light, spacious with a courteous and very professional staff. My room was a junior suite and was spacious with a large bathroom, two closets and a window on Wellington Place. The windows are old fashioned sash models that... more

This is a lovely Hotel located near Buckingham Palace. It has wonderful amenities like HDTV Flat Panel TV's, Robes, Slippers, Newspaper Daily, Great Bathroom with telephone, excellent wardrobe for your clothes, a secure safe and fast elevators. The only downside is that it is not REAL close to a tube stop. You have to walk a great deal of stairs... more

I stayed there for 1 night coming from New York. The extremely courteous staff took care of my bags immediately. At check in i requested a room with an open view. After 7 hours in an aircraft i thought a window facing a wall would quiet upset my stay here. I was very elegantly told that superior rooms (the one... more

Was here for four nights on a great deal from laterooms.com Was first put in room 534 which was literally a shoebox with a bed in it, there was truly exactly one foot of space between the bed and the walls on two sides and the bed and the desk on the third, with a sloping ceiling. Very claustrophobic for... more

Stayed here for 9 days on a business trip. This was my second stay at this hotel. First, the bad. The view was terrible - facing a brick wall for 9 days (at least it was private in my room!). Also had a problem with the shower, it was a shower/tub combo and there were so many knobs for the... more

We spent two nights at this hotel. We upgraded to a Deluxe room on arrival which was good and as other reviewers have said the bed was very comfortable. The reception and breakfast service was particularly good. The maid service and late night bar service seemed overstretched and not up to a 5* standard on this occassion. The gym was... more

We stayed the night of the 18th May at the hotel in a dbl upgraded room, although as the previous correspondent said ,it didnt have a walk in shower, but the bathroom was lovely nonetheless. A very nice hotel, attentive staff - but expensive drinks. However, when you balance that with a very competitive £20.00 3 course price fixe menu... more

We stayed for 2 nights at the Sofitel St James during a business trip in London. We were a party of 3 persons and we booked a suite and 2 sglb. Our experience was great. The rooms, even the sglb were quite comfortable and equipped with all amenities. I have stayed in many London hotels and I have seen sglb... more

Stayed one night for our wedding anniversary having secured a good deal for a superior room through the hotel's own website. On arrival we were given a complimentary upgrade to a deluxe room, however the room was still on the small side and didn't have a separate shower (as is advertised on the website) so I think we got one... more

A wonderful location and a very nice stay overall. The little touches to welcome us were a nice surprise, such as the fruit in the room and the welcome letter and drink in the bar. The room was large and very well-equipped. The bed was wonderful, it was very hard to get up in the morning! We did have a... more
