    How a double bedroom looks like
    Francine L.

    For this summer I decided to go on a journey across the pond and stay at St. Ermin's which is quite close to everything in London. You can walk to St James Park, Buckingham Palace, pubs, stores, shops, and much more. The list is endless and I would say if you have never been to London before, this area would be a nice starter for you. The beds were comfortable and the room is a decent size not too small. Service here was exceptional and the breakfast buffet was on point. Overall I have not one bad word to say about this place. I loved our little adventures all around the area and we are happy!

    We stayed here for Christmas 2025. We had a wonderful Christmas here while in London. We booked 2 rooms and both were ready for us at 11:30am. The hotel is centrally located so it's walking distance to almost everything and the tube is close as well. The hotel itself is warm and inviting with lovely charm! The staff is great - friendly and helpful. Their breakfast is awesome too. Served everyday until 10:30am. It was included in our stay, we don't normally have breakfast but it and the atmosphere were just too good to pass. They have a big fireplace in bar / dining area which was great to sit by every night. The service staff is great!! We had Christmas stockings on our door Christmas morning which was a big surprise. The rooms are clean and comfortable. We can't wait to come back in the late spring!

    Such a beautiful and convenient location with rich history. The staff was great as was the evening wine hour. The breakfast was charming as well. I read complaints about the room size, seriously! You are in a historical building in central London. How big a room do you expect in a classical old hotel, LOL

    Home away from home. Such a great hotel - true British class along with ideal location short walk from Westminster and Buck Palace. Wonderfully historic hotel which is part of the Marriot family - perfect for paying with points. Rooms are spacious for London, bathrooms are a little cramped but just knowing you need to schedule a bathroom with your spouse and all works well. Tea kettle right in the room. Plenty of USB and outlets. Perfect location.

    The St Ermins is in the heart of central London and within easy walking distance of many of the popular attractions such as Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Parliament, and Big Ben, Soho, Piccadilly Circus, theaters, etc. There is an underground station around the corner, and several others within a short walk. The hotel is a more classic style and the layout is a bit disjointed, the elevators small, but far from frustrating it is more quaint. The rooms and public areas are updated with all the modern conveniences, and the staff is very accommodating. Special notes are Ivan, Ramos in the restaurant, Gaby at the front desk, Gary at the concierge, and the entire bell staff. While unnamed our room attendant did an excellent job of keeping our room clean. The breakfast buffet was average. The ala carte items were tasty. It was disappointing that although the hotel boasts of bees, the honey is not from their bees, but a pre package. Overall a great choice for those wanting to enjoy a trip to London and want to stay in the Centre of it all.

    Love St. Ermin's. The staff are super amazing and the location is perfect if you want to near the cool stuff. If you're in town also go to the Portabello street market, it's people watching at its finest and you might just spend more thank your suitcase can handle.

    We loved this hotel. The staff was very helpful, including Nahid Yasin a restaurant manager, the lobby and other interiors were wonderful, and the location cannot be beat (walking distance to Buckingham Palace). We also tried the afternoon tea and it was great. Yes, our room was small, but we expected that at an older hotel. We would not hesitate to go back.

    So close to 5 stars but please allow me to explain... The hotel exterior is quite a beauty with its architecture and history. Front doormen and wait staff at Caxton Grill definitely do a wonderful job with helping their customers, so helpful and friendly. Thank you all! Interior, specific areas have been nicely renovated. Elevators can use some upgrades and renovations. Caxton Grill & Breakfast Buffet served good food. We enjoyed the breakfast, but if you don't like their scrambled eggs they serve in the buffet and order eggs another way, you can wait as long as 30 mins for your eggs to arrive. We loved the lox!! Caxton grill has a small menu but good food. Wait staff is friendly!! Location of hotel is great and close to Thames river and the attractions close to it, London Eye, river cruise. Our room- omg so small. We booked a 2 bed room, with queen beds, or at the minimum full beds. I shared a room with my cousin. We got 1 full sized bed that may have been 2 single beds pushed together and the smallest room I've ever been in. You had to walk sideways to get to the top of the bed on both sides. The bathroom was renovated and new but small as well. And our view was a dark, dreary and scary building, could've been from a book about Jack the Ripper. Front desk staff- not helpful at all. They push and push you to purchase some food credit at Caxton bar (their restaurant) and you only save I think 20 pounds. It's not worth it! Don't fall for it ! And when we complained about our room issue they countered with charging as an additional 100 pounds per night to get a bigger room, same bed situation where 2 grown women had to share one bed. Shaking my head. If I'm ever back in London, I will book my hotel elsewhere.

    We enjoyed our time at this historic and beautiful hotel. Upon arrival the concierge and bell mans were quick to assist us with our luggage and escorted us promptly to our room. The front desk staff was accommodating and answered and of our questions. We stayed with our Marriott membership and attempted to redeem our suite upgrades however were notified it was not available due to limited availability. In terms of accommodations, we stayed in the Deluxe King room with a view that overlooked the main courtyard/drive of the hotel. The amenities in the room were good for European sizing standards. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of outlets throughout the room. When we had any requests or needs we called the front desk and generally would have what we wanted within minutes- quite literally. Apart of our Marriott status allowed us to have complimentary breakfast each day we were there with the buffet in the restaurant. There was a great variety of options including gluten free and dairy free options, as well. You can also order from the breakfast menu for an additional charge. I appreciated that the restaurant made speciality coffee drinks, as well. The wait staff at the restaurant were very friendly and helpful. Lastly, overall our stay was very good. I definitely would recommend talking with the concierge as they had great recommendations about restaurants in the area, transportation to and from, where to go/where not to go, and really attempt to get whatever need you have met. Overall, we truly enjoyed our time while staying here. The only true downside that I have is that the room walls are relatively thin so I could hear my neighbors under and beside me throughout the evening hours.

    Service is great, breakfast is great, location is great. The hotel is very stately as well with plenty of seating in the lobby. Not so great was the musty smell on the third floor by the emergency stairs, the fact that my bathtub did not drain well, and that no Uber could find us and no taxi would pull into the hotel due to surrounding construction. It made getting places such a mess. Also I arrived to find my room very heavily perfumed like I've never seen before and had to spend the first night with windows as far S they would open to air it out.

    Absolutely fantastic place to stay in London. The service is amazing and staff are very friendly and inviting. Great restaurant inside and the rooms are very clean and updated. Definitely recommend to anyone who plans a trip to London.

    Our family of four with kids ages 9 and 10 booked this specifically for the kids while we were in…read moreLondon, and it ended up being one of the more unique and memorable experiences of the trip. We were looking for something fun and different from a traditional afternoon tea, and this definitely leaned more interactive than expected. Arrival and First Impressions Reservations are important, and when we arrived the space was already filled with families. The setting feels polished but still very welcoming for kids, which is not always the case with afternoon tea in London. Service was excellent from the start, organized without feeling too formal, and the overall atmosphere had a fun, lively energy. The Highlights The experience is built around science themed trays filled with a mix of sweet and savory items. The kids immediately locked into the interactive elements, especially the build your own strawberry lemonade with different colored syrups, which turned into more of a mini experiment than just a drink. They also had cake pops, scones, and small PB and J sandwiches, all very approachable and fun. One of the better touches was a small take home item, a dinosaur themed tin, which the kids treated like a prize from the experience. It added to the overall feeling that this was designed with kids in mind. The adult trays had a similar variety with finger sandwiches, pastries, custards, and scones. Everything was solid and there was plenty to try. Being able to request more of anything you liked helped balance things out a bit and made it feel less restrictive for the price. The Challenges The biggest drawback is the cost. For a family of four it came out to around 350 USD, which is a significant spend for what is essentially afternoon tea. It leans more toward a themed experience than a traditional tea service, so if you are expecting something quiet and refined, this may not be the right fit. Final Thoughts This is one of those experiences that works really well if you go in with the right expectations. It is interactive, a little chaotic in a good way, and clearly designed for families more than traditional tea purists. We would not rush back and I removed a star due to the price, but we are glad we did it once because the kids genuinely loved it and still talk about it. If you are looking for something unique and are comfortable with the cost, it is worth it for the experience, though the value depends on how much you lean into the interactive side.

    The Jurassic Afternoon Tea was delightful! We had the children's tea, adult's tea, and a cream tea…read more The service was friendly and the ambiance relaxed. The savory sandwiches were our favorite. The scones were very good with fun toppings to try on your jam and cream. The sweets were just okay. The macarons were the best part of the sweets and they were half-dissolved because of a server mishap with the fun smoke effect. It was a fun one-time experience for our family.

    We love a boutique hotel. Staying in Belgravia was a little out of the way in London, but you…read moreabsolutely will not be disappointed if you love a well appointed hotel room. My two girlfriends and I rented a triple room and it was roomy enough for us, all of our luggage and towers of shopping bags. We were only given one key, and you have to be buzzed in for safety reasons after 10 or 11 pm, but that was fine for us. The staff was so accommodating. The bathroom had a towel warmer which came in handy- it is freezing in London right now. We had the perfect view of The Buttery's garden from our huge window. There is an adorable market just steps away- for provisions after hours. In the states we are used to hotel rooms having in room refrigerators- but the market made it easy to get cold drinks every night. 10/10

    Ssshhhh! I honestly don't want to tell anyone about the Lime Tree Hotel - it's only 26 rooms and…read moreprobably the best kept secret in this very posh area of London!! But for you, Yelp, I'll spill the reasons why you should stay here on your next visit to London... 1) The Location is awesome. You know the three rules of real-estate, right??? location, Location, LOCATION! Lime Tree (hence-forth, LT) is located in a very posh area of London. I saw McLarens and Rolls-Royces parked ON THE STREET where the hotel is located. Who parks a USD$200K+ car ON THE STREET?!? It is short walk to the Victoria Coach Station(s), Trains and Underground (Tube). There are plenty of pubs, restaurants, grocery stores and shops around. Our room overlooked the Peggy Porschen Bakery, which I kid you not, is Instagramed during all hours by "influencers". I only hope they get as much busy as they get featured in pics on the Internet! Also, down the street is Philip Treacy, Milner to Royalty! Again, LOCATION! 2) I would be remiss if I did not mention The Service at LT. There is an eight-hour shift rotation of lovely front desk people that check you in, collect your key when you leave (yes, there is a physical key to your room door and they ask that you leave it at the front desk everytime you leave). I am goingto butcher their name spellings (probably), but during our 8 night stay here, we came to know Simone, Martine, Maggy and Laura very well and all were charming, helpful and total professionals. My mother has stayed here several times before and was hoping to speak to the owner, Matt and Charlotte, but they were off on holiday, but I hear they are as hard-working and amiable as the Wondrous Women of the Front Desk (henceforth known as WWFD) 3) The Buttery - the SMALL breakfast/lunch restaurant in the LT (but you can't charge your meals to your room in the LT). The Word is out on on this place - there were just as many Locals eating here as there were guests at the hotel. RESERVATIONS are HIGHLY recommended (they are on OpenTable). I wrote a seperate review on The Buttery, so do a Yelp search and find that, but you honestly can't go wrong here. We ate 4 of the 8 days. TomTom across the street is also a one-location (at this time) gem and is packed after 9am. Early bird gets the good breakfast! Much love to the Lime Tree! I'll be back someday
