We came here for a celebratory glass of champagne after getting engaged. Everything was perfect- the staff were lovely and explained their cocktail menu which we explored later in the evening.

The attentive staff, excellent snacks and superb bartending skills (THANKS Lukas for the PERFECT Cosmopolitans) make this a lovely hideout nestled between St. James Park and Trafalgar Square. Flexible seating allows for a solitary retreat or a gathering of friends. Beautiful! Cheers!…

After 10 minutes we had to go up to the bar to pay, and they put on a 12.5% service charge for the privilege!!!! Not only would I never come back to this hotel, but I would never go to a Sofitel again. Absolutely rubbish.…
