Reviews for The Stafford London

A real Gem

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

This was our second stay at The Stafford and it was just as great as our first. There are a number of aspects to love - practical ones such as its quiet location, no noisy street noise here; its ease of access to the Underground network; walkable to theatres, shopping and restaurants and then there’s its atmosphere. Think quiet, club-like, comfortable areas for the restaurant, now with the fantastic Michael Caines as Executive Chef, and of course, the iconic American Bar for cocktails to while away an hour after a busy day. The staff, attentive, always welcoming helped make our stay a home away from home. Our second visit confirmed that it will not be our last trip to this gem of a find in London.

The Stafford Is the perfect base in London

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

I have been staying at the Stafford whenever I am in London for business or pleasure for over 30 years. It has always been my favorite hotel in the world. I love the service, ambiance, lovely rooms and bathrooms, and the perfect location. This latest trip was typical. The talented concierge team got me excellent restaurant reservations, cars, and tickets to sold out events! When one of the venues had a problem with the ticket scan printing, the team tracked me down and got substitute tickets to me—all with no hassle to me. The American Bar, available all day for snacks, is very comfortable and friendly. The restaurant is excellent.

Indulgence at the Stafford Hotel

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

The Stafford Hotel St James Place London is a beautiful hotel in the heart of the city. Every once and a while it's nice to indulge yourself in some quality accommodation and truly wonderful service! The staff are professional very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast is served at your table by really charming staff dressed in immaculate uniforms. The room 605 with roof top views across London with the London Eye as a backdrop was large and as expected very comfortable for our two night stay.. And late evening drinks and cocktails in the American restaurant - bar after a magnificent Cirque du Soleil performance at the Royal Albert Hall was a fitting end to a fantastic day. So! If you close your eyes and hold your breath whilst checking the final invoice on check out.. just think 🤔 did I enjoy staying at the Stafford Hotel was it worth it.... my answer is definitely a big yes! Recommended. Hotel management be proud "thank you " Gordon (10th & 11th January 2026)

Exceptional service provided by management and his team. Room space, comfort and layout met our needs. Room was very quiet and with a pretty view of the city. Another highlight of our stay is the American bar with great service. food and beverage . We quite like staying in St James , Mayfair. Their Christmas eve Carol signing in the wine caller. a personal touch to guests travelling away from home.

It's all about the staff at The Stafford! My favorite hotel in London and probably in the world! If you can't stay there stop by the bar...not to be missed. Look it up when you're there.

My cousin and I had the most fabulous trip! The Stafford London was the most perfect, wonderful hotel, and we could not be any happier!

The staff was amazing, and yes, please let Alan and Nick know how much they helped us, as this was my very first trip to London!

We so appreciated the perks, and enjoyed the wine in our room!
