Top St James Hotel Reviews

The Tower Hotel, by Thistle

6/10 Okay

"Best location but hardware is bellow average. Ac is not working 2 nights as we stay."

Park Plaza London Riverbank

10/10 Excellent

"Great location on the south end of central London (although be warned the TfL app will try to get you to walk farther to tube stations when the Vauxhall station is a lot closer and connects with all the main lines fairly easily). Staff were incredibly friendly, especially Ahmad at the luggage storage desk. The room definitely lives up to the soundproofing they promote on their listing, it was very quiet and private. The room was spacious and comfortable. I could not have asked for a better home base for my trip to London."

Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

10/10 Excellent

"From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by lovely gentleman, who made the whole check in so fast and easy. The room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. This was not my first stay here, hence why we return again and again. Around the hotel you are in the centre, underground 2 minute walk away, lots of bars, restaurants right outside and shops 10minute walk away, a lively busy part of London, however from inside the hotel, you don't hear any noise from outside and to be fair, we did not notice or hear any noise from other guests. We really love this hotel and will return. So thankyou to all the staff, cleaners especially, our room was immaculate"

Radisson Blu Hotel, London Heathrow

10/10 Excellent

"Impressed by the clean and spacious rooms! The hallways are grand but a bit complex—I got lost on my first day and struggled a bit with my heavy suitcase. Regardless, this is a 10/10 stay and I’d definitely return. Plus, meeting a celebrity at check-in was the ultimate cherry on top of a great trip!"

Strand Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is centrally located close to many of the main tourist attractions and the theatre district. All within walking distance. Booked a Superior Single room. Room was a decent size and had the usual amenities, iron, coffee maker, etc. No fridge or microwave. The bed is comfortable and the linen is soft. Bathroom just had a shower, no tub and toiletries were supplied. There is no bathroom door. The rooms don't have a standard layout so you could be staring straight into the bathroom from your bed. Finding your room was a challenge as the floors are a rabbit's warren of hallways and the room #s weren't laid out in a logical pattern. There is an digital sign at the elevator where you put in your room # and it shows you how to get to it. Daily housekeeping is provided but if you opt not to have this, you get a coupon for £7 off the breakfast buffet. They will then only clean your room every 4 days. The breakfast buffet has a good selection of hot and cold items. If paid the night before it's £15, otherwise it's £20 at the door. Traveled to Edinburgh for a few days and was able to store my larger suitcase while I was away until I returned for my last nights in London. I was very pleased with my stay and would book here again. Would recommend."
