I had a truly fabulous stay at St. James Court, A Taj Hotel and felt genuinely treated like a queen from start to finish. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and consistently went above and beyond to make my stay special. The location is prime. It is central, convenient, and perfect for exploring London, yet still feels peaceful and tucked away. My room was clean, modern, and spacious, offering a wonderful place to relax after a day out. Dining was a highlight of my stay. The Kona Midsummer Night’s Dream Afternoon Tea was enchanting, creative, and beautifully presented, with plenty of thoughtful vegetarian options. Lunch at House of Ming was equally impressive, innovative, flavorful, and a real treat. As a vegetarian, I truly appreciated the variety and creativity across the menus. The courtyard deserves special mention. It is absolutely stunning and feels like something out of a dream. A rare and beautiful oasis in the heart of the city. I can’t wait to return and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for exceptional service, beautiful surroundings, and a truly memorable London stay.

We have stayed at the St James before and the standard is still very good, in spite of the renovation works, which are nicely disguised. That said, even for a London Hotel, £10 for a cup of coffee is a bit steep.

The service and staff here are among the best I have received anywhere in the world. They were warm, attentive, polite and helpful. Everyone from the front desk up to our favorite bartender was amazing. Breakfast was delicious. All the typical western fare and a great selection of Indian cuisine which I had never tasted. We stayed in and had dinner on Christmas Day and it was spectacular. Food was delicious, the atmosphere lively and festive. They had live music. Finally the location was perfect. Safe and near enough to all the attractions. Definitely would recommend.
