The Stafford London Hotel is located merely a 5-minute walk from the red brick Tudor royal residence "St James's Palace" as well as a few steps from art galleries and theatres. Boasting a fitness studio, the hotel is in the very heart of the city, in proximity to St James's Park.

Location

Such city attractions as St Paul's Anglican Cathedral, which is 3.1 km from this 5-star hotel, and Buckingham Palace, which is 850 metres away, are well worth a visit. The Stafford stands a few steps from Green Park tube station.

Parks are just steps from the property, and the Protestant Westminster Abbey is a 19-minute walk away. Along with other cultural attractions the Dinosaurs gallery "Natural History Museum" is nestled 2.7 km from this London hotel.

The smoke-free The Stafford London Hotel is situated near Marylebone train station, a 25-minute stroll away.

Rooms

The air-conditioned rooms come with a laptop sized safe, complimentary wireless internet and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, as well as a mini-fridge-bar and an espresso machine. The marble bathrooms include a walk-in shower and a separate toilet. A walk-in shower and a separate toilet are offered in marble-lined bathrooms along with hair dryers and bathrobes. Rooms come with a view of the courtyard.

Eat & Drink

The Stafford London features an à la carte restaurant with European menu. For a drink, you can stop by the traditional lounge bar. Guests can try European dishes at the restaurant The Wolseley located about 400 metres away.

Leisure & Business

A courtyard and a shared lounge are provided at this property. Business and leisure travellers can also make use of conference equipment and a photocopier.

“The Stafford London wins with its blend of Victorian charm and curated modern luxury, although some rooms can be inconsistent. Its collaboration with Michelin-starred chef Michael Caines elevates the dining, while the American Bar is a destination in itself. The location is superb for accessing central London's attractions; consider it a worthwhile base for those who prioritize character and culinary experiences.”

nice welcome superb experience
The doormen, Andrew and Brett, gave us a nice welcome! The Mews suite offered beautiful views of the courtyard. I sampled meals from the room service menu. The cauliflower steak was a stand-out dish. The American bar's cocktails provided a superb experience. I suggest taking it easy on the 'One Fall All'.
The bar got quite packed around 5 p.m., even for residents. Securing a table proved difficult despite my being a hotel guest.
