Our rooms weren't ready when we arrived at lunchtime but the staff offered us a complimentary lunch while we waited. They immediately made us feel welcome, and that hospitality continued throughout our stay - they were always helpful, cheerful, polite, hospitable, and never... More

In early May we enjoyed four days at this outstanding property. Our luxury room, 318, was a decent size for the centre of London and had all the expected style, high quality finishing and amenities.

As a 'non-corporative traveler'( I pay my bills) I am alway aprehensive in making reservations in 5-star hotels because I may not get what I payed for, but that was not the case in Sofitel St James. I spent 6 nights and services were great: laundry, housekeeping, roomservice, great gym and excellent breakfast (not inccluded but worth). The room was... More

I'll confess, I got a great deal on Hotwire. I used Hotwire and was able to work out the location of the hotel from the description. I am British by birth, living in the US and this was my partner's first visit to the UK, so I wanted a nice hotel. The reviews I read of this hotel were astounding...... More
