St. Ermin's Hotel

This is the place to stay in London, kicking myself for not knowing it earlier. In fairness ot myself i lived here 7yrs so did not follow the hotel science. Found this place a few months ago and stayed there in Oct. due to its proximity to where my daughter worked and just general proximity to the greatest part of London, ST. James park area. Yet is is quiet and peaceful. Really first class staff and a wonderful restaurant there. It’s Marriot Autograph which is why it proabably was in my search list to begin with. So impressed, that , well, was back here again this week. And you know what, i booked it again for NYE. Also bragged on it to my FaceBook Marriot Titanium/Ambassador group and found i was not alone. In this elite group is seems to show up as one of the fav Marriot Autograph;s in Europe. Expensive, maybe but so is everything in London and if you look at the delta cost vs. quality of anything around it wins. Again, great service, quiet, classy, personal, classic London feel, and did i mention a couple hundred meters from walking in St. James park (or the St. James -circle/district line) tube. Lovely outside porch for drinks, music on , i think Saturday, and did i mention a short walk from St. James Park. -jim

St Ermin's Hotel was one of the best hotels where we have stayed. The rooms were extremely nice, the staff awesome, the food excellent and a very convenient location. It was within walking distance of many historic spots and the St. James Park tube station was right next door. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

The St. Ermin's is a lovely hotel with incredibly professional staff. It is well located with many top tourist sites very walkable (Big Ben, Parliament, Westminster, War Rooms, Buckingham Palace) and easy Tube access. The hotel has an interesting place in history and it is worth viewing the exhibit in the lobby. - and it will give you new perspective on the bar! We relied on the concierge for dinner reservations that proved excellent (thanks Mario!) and they also set us up with an incredible private walking tour of the City of London (everything from the Roman Empire through Shakespeare and up to Harry Potter - something for everyone). After struggling to find the right first-day activity, the conceiver set us up with British Tours and we really appreciated that recommendation. We've recommended the hotel already to friends, and will absolutely stay here again when in London. Be sure to check out the high tea - he food and tea selections were amazing!

Very clean, old world charm hotel. Very small rooms and mine always smelled like something was being baked nearby. I have a hypersensitive nose and if I was staying for more than 2 nights I would have requested a room change. Hard to access the USB connections, they are below and behind the tables. Love the Bees! Breakfast was fresh and delicious

An exemplary stay in a grand historical building transformed into a comfortable hotel with amenities of a very high standards. Equally matched by the courteous staff at every step and quality food in breakfast and evening meal at the Grill bar.
