Beautiful lobby but the place is huge (we got lost several times trying to find our room!) and the rooms are really tiny. The hotel is conveniently located next to Victoria Station and a short walk to Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey. Breakfast was a buffet and therefore was just ok. We gravitated towards Soho and Covent Garden area at night for restaurants so I think I would look in that area next time.

Dear YogaMamaD Thanks for your review. As a Grade II listed building our rooms do vary in shape and size with our Classic rooms our cosiest and our Superior and Suites our largest rooms. We're disappointed to hear that you won't be returning to the area, our sister hotel The Clermont Charing Cross is a short walk from the Soho / Covent Garden area if this is you're preferred location. Many thanks Natasha

We treated ourselves to an afternoon tea at the Clermont on the weekend. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was serene and the service by Mohammed and Gemma was excellent. I would definitely return for another experience, as the quality was so high in every respect.

The lobby was beautiful and the location was central to stations and near to Belgravia-my favorite town in London. BUT Room was VERY small for the price. There was literally no space for us to open our bags. Staff was not too nice. the receptionist who checked us in made a comment that was unnecessary and offended my friend. sad. he was of the same nationality as ours but he had one big crab mentality. Other staff were not as smiling either. when we go to our room it seemed like a puzzle. we take the elevator to the second floor but had to walk to another stairs to go down. not good especially for my mom who had a bad knee.

What an absolute wonderful experience! The Clermont Victoria is a stunningly beautiful hotel. Everything around the hotel is within walking distance. My husband and I even had the opportunity to enjoy High Tea in the lovely tea room at the hotel. Mohammad has been very attentive helping answer all of our questions and giving impeccable service. We can’t wait to come back!

The staff and the atmosphere cannot be beat, the hotel is so accepting and accommodating that I would feel weird going anywhere else. Mohammed made us die of laughter every morning when we went down for breakfast. To be honest quite a few staff made their mark on us, but everyone was so busy we didn't get their names. But never once were we shrugged off, they always take your inquiries seriously and with a smile. Would definitely recommend the stay to anyone thinking about it.

Superb stay at The Clermont Victoria. Victoria line from King's Cross and a 5 min walk to the hotel. Checked in early as I had booked direct instead of a 3rd party booking app, was cheaper too, also received a token for a free drink for me and my wife in The Soak bar next door. I chose a Superior room and requested a quiet part of the hotel which was honored, didn't hear a thing in the 3 nights we stayed. Lovely, spotlessly clean, large room with huge comfy bed and because we'd booked Superior we had a free mini bar that was replenished each day. Brekfast was great and offered full English, cereals, pastries and healthy options and an assortment of drinks. All staff are friendly and attentive, nothing is too much trouble for them. The hotel is in a fab position, only took us 20 min from leaving the hotel, jumping on the tube and standing in the queue at The tower of London, also Belgravia, Chelsea and Sth Kensington are a short walk away, classy neighborhood. We had a meal in the Soak bar which was tasty and reasonably priced, thankfully we'd booked earlier that day as walk ins were turned away. No need to trawl the net for London accommodation, treat yourself and book the The Clermont, this is were I'll stay in future, it's a no brainier.

Luni & Gemma we’re very attentive and polite to us during our visit for afternoon tea. Highly recommended for those wanting a lovely experience just a few blocks from Buckingham Palace. The pastries and teas paired nicely just before heading back out to continue our city adventures.

Lovely architecture, nice staff - let down by the noise from external vents, poorly maintained room. Great food and service in the restaurant. Most amazing cocktail bar. Nice touch of included sweets and refreshments in the room.
