Last month we went to London and spend a great weekend. We were lodged at the Sofitel London St James. We have stayed at other fine Sofitels in Paris and Marseille, but the St James was the best. With a perfect location near theaters, shops and good restaurants, the Sofitel at the heart of London offers great service and very... more

My husband and I stayed at the Sofitel London St. James for 4 nights the end of September 2009. We reserved the classic room, but were upgraded to a somewhat larger room. We were in room 526. We loved the location of the hotel - perfect for walking to restaurants, the subway and right in the middle of all the... more

The Sofitel St James is located at the crossing between Regent Street and Pall Mall, ideal for business and leisure. I have stayed there more than in any other hotel in London and absolutely love it. The hotel is set in a beautiful 19th century building, with a double height entrance hall. The reception gives an impression of grandeur, especially... more

This is one the few "proper" 5 star hotels in London. The location is great - right at the bottom of Regent Street. Inside the staff are excellent and rooms are big for London with everything you would expect from a 5 star hotel. Prices do reflect that but if you have the money then you should stay here! more

Hotel location is perfect, and staff service awesome from reservation (special thanks to the reservation manager who exceeded my special requests expectation) to checking-out. Rooms always clean, great amenities, and new extras such as in room expresso machines available freely upon request. Of course, this is not a cheap hotel but getting a deal including breakfast makes it more affordable,... more

Landed from Paris and moved into the St. James Sofitel. A bit odd to have the staff spouting French in the center of London. But one gets quickly used to it. Check-in was a breeze - the staff knew who I was even though it was our first time there. Some nifty guesswork I suppose. My daughter was asleep in... more

From the moment you arrive at the front door of the hotel, you are made to feel welcome (without anything feeling 'over the top'). Check in was a doddle and the luxury room, while smaller than similarly classed rooms in other cities, was excellent. The front desk had asked if we were celbrating anything during our stay; it was our... more

Out of the three hotels we stayed in during our month in London this was our favourite. Great location in the centre of London. Could walk everywhere from there. Loved the beds. Was like sleeping on clouds. The staff were all great. Have no complaints. more

Stayed at the Sofitel with my husband for one night in October. The decor is lovely, the staff very friendly and helpful. The hotel is also very well located, an easy stroll to theatreland. Also very convenient for other areas such as Regent Street and Covent Garden. The rooms are a good size and very well presented. They also include... more
