Charming, well located hotel with lovely service.

Great location, tucked away in St James but a short skip to the luxury boutiques of Bond Street, Knightsbridge and Green Park and the Palace! Its comfortable and cosy, clean and run by a super friendly team ! Rooms are a little tired, but reovating would probably ruin the authentic charm of the hotel.
