Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Angelica18 Good customer service
We stayed at this hotel as a treat for my husbands 50th birthday. We booked a deluxe double bedroom for us including our 12 year old daughter. The day before our arrival I rang the hotel to inquire if they did any complementary gift's and was told that they could possibly do a upgrade for us. When we got to the hotel we were pleasantly surprised as we were upgraded to a suite. We felt thoroughly spoilt and could not fault the staff for the service we received. The hotel is in walking distance off Buckingham Palace. There was not much to do in terms of bars and restaurants in the evenings but that was fine for us as we were after a quiet week end. We would definitely stay at this hotel again,

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by SunshineonLeith Very nice hotel in a great central location
Enjoyed my stay at the Crowne Plaza, St James. Great for Westminster an all central attractions. My room was lovely, particularly the bathroom and shower. Had a great sleep, slight issue with vacuuming in room above (presume it was a conference room) at 4.30am but otherwise good.
My one gripe with Crowne Plaza in the UK is the charge for wireless internet. This really should change when budget chains can provide free wireless, surely 4 and 5 star hotels can do the same!

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by Adders Incredibly pleased
The staff provided us a great service. They upgraded us to an Executive room for no added cost, and then after a very...happy night out, Leo and his colleague, I believe Jack, helped me take my friend upstairs.
The rooms are incredibly clean and comfortable and one wouldn't think it would be so nice, considering how cheap it was.
Thank you!! I'll be back.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by Janey8572 Wonderful hotel
I booked a surprise weekend stay at the Crowne Plaza for my husband's 40th birthday. The 1st room (202) we were given wasn't satisfactory as there was a rather loud humming from a vent/air conditioning unit outside. As this was such a special occasion it had to be perfect; I didn't want to be saying "the room was lovely BUT...". A quick visit to reception and we were relocated to the 3rd floor overlooking the courtyard and this one was perfect!
The hotel and the room were clean, well presented and all the staff were very friendly/helpful. We had a fantastic evening in the Hamptons bar (made our way through the cocktail menu listening to the pianist!) on Friday night. We ate there too on Saturday night before going to the theatre and the food was excellent too.
We will definitely stay again. Thank you Crowne Plaza, you didn't let me down!

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by PNJ1994 A memorable anniversary
We had stayed previously on a room only basis and this time booked for bed and breakfast and dinner at Quilon.
On arrival we were given an upgrade to a superior room which was very spacious and tastefully decorated with a super bathroom.
We enjoyed a relaxing drink in Hamptons bar and dined at Quilon.
We were looking forward to this as we enjoy Indian food, and this was easily the finest we had ever tasted. The scallops were delicious, as was the coconut chicken, and the fish dishes were so good it is easy to see why they are the speciality of the house.
We could not believe how reasonable the bill was for such a fine quality dining experience.
Breakfast was also good, but we were not advised it was a buffet on entering the restaurant, and from our table the buffet area was not visible, so it was a case of having to ask what the procedure was. Perhaps this could be improved upon.
The checkin and out was very efficient, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We fully intend to return and to sample the pleasures of Quilon again.

Small interior room (typically European) but well above average lighting. Breakfast was excellent, Bistro 51 for dinner one night also. Greatest positive is the staff. 100% friendly, helpful, courteous, regardless of individual role.

WE had a very nice weekend.
The hotel is really elegant and comfortable.
Nice location near the tube station and a few minutes walking to Westminster Cathedral and Parliament.
Storage for luggage the day of our departure.
Tea and coffee in the room.
We think is perfect for a weekend in london

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by BusyLizzie A Pleasant stay
Convenient location, excellent staff (very welcoming). Excellent food at breakfast in the Bistro. Beds and room very comfortable. Only drawback was the noise of water running during the night and at ten to five in the morning. The main compliant was when the concierge phoned our room for no reason at 12.10a.m and wakened us out of our night's sleep and we were unable to get back to sleep for several hours. When I answered the phone there was no-one there but the front desk were able to check and tell us that it had been the concierge but he hadn@even spoken when I answered the phone. When I brought this to the attention of the front desk they then put a do not disturb on the phone until we checked out. This incidient marred an otherwise enjoyable stay.

Rated 3.0 out of 5.0 by Ailsa Easter Break
Chose this Hotel on location and it certainly delivered on that at reception arrival went well looking forward to seeing room. We were disappointed with the room what was the rumbling noise ?? Guess the lift shaft ran up and down our inside wall the external wall looked onto the noisy air conditioning hence the windows were frosted--no view. Whilst the room had everything you would expect and was basically clean the décor and carpets were tired and had the marks of a long history. The room was adequate for the rate paid and as long a we took turns to sit and walk around the bed it was manageable beware of room 155

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by cjomaz Great hotel and staff
We stayed in this hotel with my daughter over the easter weekend. Hotel lovely, clean and well presented. room was excellent and nice little touches like toiletries and a couple of complimentary chocolates. Staff were so helpful, friendly and smiley. Breakfast on the first morning was excellent, however on the 2nd morning we were ushered through to the conference rooms to deal with the overspill from the restaurant. This unfortuntely was not as pleasant as the main breakfast area and didn't offer the same choice of food. I'm surprised if this is the first time that the hotel has found itself in this situation. Also strange that the hotel boasts a number of restaurants but we were asked to eat in conference rooms. Anyway, I have already passed this feedback to the hotel and await their response. In the meantime, a great hotel, good value and a fab location. Will return.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by JI2219 wonderful hotel
My husband and I arrived in London and checked into an American Express recommended fine hotel for 2 nights.We were upgraded to a Superior King room which to our surprise was totally disappointing. The room was dark, the layout odd, the rug tattered. The TV was so far from the bed we could just about see the screen. We were going to be in London for 4 additional nights and decided to look for another hotel. In our travels we came upon the Crowne Plaza St. James, remembered our travel agent mentioning it, so decided to stop in and check it out. The hotel exterior is under renovation but even so we liked the look and went in. The lobby is beautiful and inviting. The front desk staff professional and friendly. We booked a room, superior King which was at least half the cost than our previous hotel. When entering the room we were delighted! It was bright and clean and faced the courtyard which was beautiful. We loved the restaurants and the entire staff from housekeeping to the concierge. The bar area was so relaxing after a day of siteseeing for a glass of wine or cup of coffee or tea. The piano player was a bonus. Our needs or requests were immediately responded to. The location was perfect! Within walking distance to many attractions and shopping areas. We loved that we were able to walk and be at the palace within minutes and shopping and parks, the eye all with walks no longer than 45 minutes. We checked out at 4 am called to have our luggage picked up and had someone at our door within 5 minutes, checkout took no longer that 5 mins. Everything about this hotel was a pleasure and I let AE know that our stay at this hotel was far superior to their 5 star fine hotel recommendation. We will surely look for a Crowne Plaza or affiliate for our next vacation. Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful stay.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Abby595 Excellent location
This hotel is very near several main tube stations as well as multiple attractions. Walking to most things was very easy, and the tube made the rest a breeze. We loved the heated towel bar in our room, the bathroom was very spacious and modern, and the room was comfortable and met our needs. Concierge was very helpful with information, making reservations for tea at Harrods, and calling a cab for the train station. Our room included breakfast, which offered many choices and we never had to wait for a table more than a few minutes for the two of us (the larger the group, likely a longer wait). Check out was simple as we had prepaid. We literally walked up to the counter, said our room number, they smiled and said "thank you" and we were off to Kings Cross! Lovely stay!
