Taj 51 Buckingham Gate Suites and Residences

My partner and I went over to the Taj Spa on Valentine’s weekend and had such an amazing massage with Rebekah and Hidayah, honestly one of the best we’ve ever had. The team were super thoughtful too, especially since my partner had torn his ACL earlier in the year, and they really made sure he was comfortable. The spa itself is so calm and peaceful. The moment you walk in, you feel relaxed. We were greeted with water and tea, and the whole vibe just made us feel really well looked after. The booking was also really easy, even though I sorted it last minute. Big thanks to Tenzin for helping make it all smooth. I’d definitely recommend the Taj Spa for a massage, such a great experience!

From the moment we arrived at Taj 51, we knew we were in for something special. The welcome at check‑in set the tone for our entire stay. Amreen and Arzan greeted us with such warmth and professionalism and their attention to detail made us feel instantly at home. A special mention also to their manager, Ankush, whose gracious presence and seamless coordination ensured everything was perfect throughout our visit. Our stay itself was nothing short of luxurious. Every corner of the property reflects elegance, and the team went above and beyond to surprise us with thoughtful touches that made the experience unforgettable. Taj 51 exceeded our expectations in every way. The service, the people, and the genuine hospitality made this stay truly memorable. We can't wait to return.

From Ms Zuzana dining you the perfect room to Iara/Kuri/ Mathew anticipating you every need to Alex/Jon and the Concierge team taking care of your smallest request to Tanya at Kona remembering you favorite breakfast the team doesn’t miss a beat.

Congratulations to Ms Corrina Leube, the new GM on her exceptional team. It was a pleasure meeting you. Looking forward to seeing you soon since we can’t seem to keep away from your beautiful hotel!

The Taj 51 is our favorite hotel by a mile! During our recent stay in London at the Taj 51, we were treated to a fabulous visit - attentive and friendly staff, an impeccably clean suite, and wonderful food. We have visited the Taj every year for the past five years and continue to be impressed. This visit, however, will be remembered for what happened after our visit ended. After we sadly left Taj 51 we moved to the Trafalgar Square part of London to a hotel which will remain unnamed, and the horror started. We were assigned a room that was dirty, dated, and had a toilet that would not flush. We immediately called and asked to be moved to another room, but were told by the front desk that there were no rooms available. We told them the toilet was not flushing and they sent three men who stood around for the next half hour while one of them fiddled with the toilet. They left for tools twice and ended up making a temporary fix. This was absolutely unacceptable. My wife was especially furious. She cried on the bed and wouldn't talk to me. I suggested we head for the bar across the street to calm down and strategize what to do next. Once there I decided to call the Taj in an attempt to save my marriage. I spoke to a reservations specialist who listened intently to my story and said they would be happy to accommodate our return to the Taj 51. He gave me a great price on a 1 bedroom suite that included breakfast and said we could arrive immediately. Of course our spirits rose and we left the bar and packed our bags at the terrible hotel. I went to the front desk and told the clerk we were leaving and why we were leaving. He left to go talk to someone and came back saying there was a "last minute cancellation" and there was a room where we could move to. Of course there was a room available. There always was! This was late January, the slower part of the London tourist season, so short of calling the man a liar to his face, I declined the room and we left. When our taxi arrived at the Taj a concierge and a bellman were waiting for us and carried our luggage to our suite along with my wife whose faith in mankind was restored, while I went to check in. While I unfortunately had to leave the next day to return home, my marriage was intact and my wife enjoyed 5 days of luxury with the kind and friendly faces of the Taj 51 staff, as well as delicious breakfasts at the Kona restaurant and complimentary happy hour at the great bar. We will forever be grateful to the Taj team for rescuing us from a terrible situation that I can't wait to block out of my mind. We look forward to returning to the Taj 51 Buckingham gate for many years to come.
