I agree with most of what the other travelers wrote about the Stafford. Wonderful location, good value for the money. Generous extras such as the drinks in the minibar as well as free internet. The bar is charming and relaxed, the service warm and friendly. The food in the hotel is fine, not great, not bad. However, the staff is... more

We visit London alot for weekend breaks and have stayed at many good hotels there including Claridges and Browns. After our visit to The Stafford this is now the only hotel we will use when in London. A hidden gem ideally located with friendly staff , gorgeous rooms and a fabulous bar. Cant wait to go again. more

We travel a fair amount and for our last weekend in London in 2009 stayed at the Berkeley where the suite we had was so outdated it looked like it was last decorated in 1985. So, we tried a completely different hotel and opted for The Stafford. Tucked away behind St James palace it's a 5 minute walk from Bond... more

Having stayed in hotels in all over the World and in particular in London The Stafford beats them all into a cocked hat! It has recently beeen bought by a wealthy private individual I am told and I see that someone has warned us all to beware. Well that is not my experience. The rooms are quite outstanding, generous in... more

This hotel is fabulous. We stayed in one of the suites in their carriage house and it was beautiful. The room and service were fantastic. The staff really go out of their way to make you feel welcome! Also, the location could NOT BE BETTER! You are walking distance to some of the best restaurant, the Buckingham Palace, and the... more

We have been to this hotel before and found everything to be perfect. However on our most recent stay it wasn't the same. The location is still wonderful but there were little things wrong everyday. The newspaper didn't arrive the first day, we had no bath mat the second day, no face towels the next day and believe it or... more

Thank you for your feedback. Rest assured the new owners of The Stafford have only bought the property with the intention of enhancing our reputation and will certainly not change the heritage of the Hotel.

The Stafford is a wonderful hotel, brimming with style and charm. The location is ideal: on a very quiet side street just a couple of minutes' walk from bustling Piccadily, not far from Buckingham Palace. The standard rooms are elegant and functional, with comfortable beds and luxurious furnishings. Service is superlative -- every member of the staff I encountered was... more

The rooms here are decorated so beautifully and individually. Real style. No fru-fru and not that antiseptic contemporary style in so many gutted old British hotels. Service was amazing. Location is just perfect. St. James's, near Buckingham, Westminter Abbey and the Churchill War Rooms. Beautiful St. James's Park down the street. Green Park tube stop right there. Hotel breakfast, though... more

Our family of 3 stayed at the Stafford for 7 nights during the last week of August. I picked it over the Four Seasons Canary Wharf due to its great reviews and excellent location despite a much higher rate. The pre-paid non-refundable rate for a suite that accommodates my family of 3 at the Stafford was double that of the... more

It was a pure delight to stay here. I had read all of the glowing reviews of the Stafford Hotel prior to booking a stay here, and our time at the Stafford exceeded my expectations in every way. This is an extremely well managed and well run proper British hotel. It's elegant and comfortable at the same time and the... more
