Exceptional Hotel with equally exceptional Staff
From the wonderful scent of Jasmine as you enter the hotel to the attentive and super friendly staff I cannot recommend St James' enough. It was a bitterly cold day in London when we arrived but the stunning lights in the courtyard and beautiful Christmas decor inside the hotel soon cheered us up. Check in was speedy and efficient and arrival in the room itself didn't disappoint. Clean, comfortable and added extras to make your sty just that bit more special. We ate in the restaurant that night and the staff were concerned about the heating as we chose to sit next to the window, but we were very comfortable. Breakfast was a highlight, really lovely fresh selection of everything you could think of all included in the price. St James' is our "go to" choice for central London as everywhere is within walking distance. Just exceptional.

I liked all the Christmas decorations and the staff was wonderful! Breakfast was delicious! Our room had coffee that previously spilled down the wall, a piece of popcorn on the floor and some pieces of plastic on the floor from previous person. Did not understand the switching of a used mattress while we were in the room and why that couldn’t be placed before we arrived or after we left. But overall enjoyed our stay.

A lovely 2 night break
Service was.excellent throughout our stay. Our server in the breakfast area was a lovely lady and I am only sorry I did not catch her name. Jeff on reception was a real star and mansges to find a room.early as I was feeling unwell. Room service was impeccable and the food we ate in our room deliciouus. The only small niggle was that the larger bed was zip lock and Carl was uncomfortably aware of the join.

The main issue is that one of the hotel's two elevators is not working resulting in long waits for an elevator and this has been an issue for months. There is a fair amount of deferred maintenance on doors and furniture that is disappointing and could be easily resolved with paint! The service was great though, but I would not stay there again.

This property is a true disgrace to the Taj name. It was filthy. I will not recommend this hotel to anyone! Myself I will never stay there again. And I would be reluctant to stay at another Taj due to this terrible experience. The rooms and bathrooms were dirty. Food was the worst experience! Everything is bad
