The Sofitel St James is now top of my list of places to stay in London. From the moment you enter the building, you get the feeling that this is going to be something quite exceptional - and it was! Nothing was too much for the staff - warm and friendly, but professional with it. The room was classy and... more

The time we spent at the Spa was absolute bliss and I must say that every single employee was going this extra mile to make sure we had a relaxing and lovely time. The design of the different rooms is very elegant and there is a real atmosphere of Harmony We have very much enjoyed our afternoon there . more

We stayed 4 days the room we had was very big and spotless. Breakfast was very good, lot's of choices and great capucino. The location is really in the heart of London next to nearly every attraction and theatres, and a very good bus near No. 94. Sorry had no time for the spa but sure I'll plane time for... more

This was one of my great hotel experiences - not the least because they even threw in a close-up encounter with the Queen. The hotel is just above the boulevard that leads to Buckingham Palace and I was about to cross the road on the way to St James Park underground when police motor-cyclists stopped us Aussie jaywalkers and a... more

This is the third Sofitel that we have stayed at, and once again the group have delivered excellent service and facilities. We arrived early and were shown to a room with no fuss. The hotel was perfectly situated for what we wanted to do in London - five minutes from Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery - where we had... more

Excellent location, courteous staff, very good breakfast (although a bit too expensive if it's not included in your room price) and nice rooms with wonderful beds and Hermes bathroom amenities. My new favourite in London. more

Stayed a dozen of times there, flawless experience nearly all the times (only once I had a terrible cramped room). Very high quality of service, best possible location. Just few meters of Picadilly Circus but not directly on it. Amazing bed indeed. Negative points: very pricey but London is always very expensive in general so it's ok. Rooms are rather... more

I am not a fan of Accor chain of hotels and never stay in them, including Sofitel - there is something unappealing about busloads of people checking in in the morning when one has to run off to a meeting on check out, experiences of shabby, poorly serviced hotels in strange places many many moons ago was enough to put... more

It is a great hotel in many ways. But at the same time it is not a low budget hotel. So I'm a little bit surprised that they charge for the Internet access. They do have a free option with "low speed" access but that was more or less like it was when you used dial-up modem. After the discussion... more
