Sofitel London St James

Situated in a grand listed building on Waterloo Place, Sofitel London St James is exceptionally well placed between St James’s, Mayfair and the West End. Trafalgar Square is just around the corner, and Piccadilly Circus, Regent Street, Buckingham Palace, Green Park and Theatreland are all within an easy walk. This is an excellent location, central yet away from the crowded areas.

Housed in a stunning former Lloyds Bank, the lobby welcomes you in grand style. Inside, expect bold tartan carpets, velvet banquettes, pop-art accents, and that je ne sais quoi of Paris meets London.

Rooms are colourful without losing their sophistication, blending deep blues, rich reds and emerald greens with sleek monochrome bathrooms and polished contemporary details. Nespresso machines add a practical touch. Luxury Rooms can interconnect, and selected suites also interconnect, giving families more flexibility without compromising on style.

Wild Honey St James brings Michelin-star brilliance with French flair and British ingredients. The Bistrot offers casual brunch, while the Rose Lounge serves tea with a cinematic, golden-hued charm. When night falls, the St James Bar becomes the perfect moody rendezvous.

A three-floor spa with a hammam, steam room, HydraFacials, and specialist treatments from facialist Su-Man. Plus, a 24/7 Technogym studio and the jetlag-taming Sha Chair.
