First time staying in this hotel and couldn't fault it at all - staff on the front desk were lovely, friendly and professional, room was perfect, restaurant and rooftop terrace were really good, and it wasn't as crazy price-wise as many others in the area. The location was perfect for Bank and St Pauls, I'd definitely recommend it and will definitely stay there again.

Nestled behind Buckingham Palace, this luxurious hotel is opposite the Royal Mews. It has striking rooms, a generous supply of free snacks and canapés, attentive 5-star service, and a wood-panelled Executive Lounge.

My stay at '41' during the Christmas period was nothing short of magical. The hotel's proximity to Buckingham Palace added to the charm. The staff outdid themselves, creating an unforgettable holiday experience — from the warm welcome in their executive lounge, reminiscent of a prestigious private members' club, to the exceptional hospitality and thoughtful Christmas presents. They made me feel more like a cherished guest than just a client. Additionally, the room's incredible style and comfort were the icing on the cake of a truly memorable stay. By the way, I am extremely grateful to the staff for staying until around 2 o'clock in the morning on Christmas Day, allowing me to enter and replacing the key I forgot in my room before leaving. You truly created a small Christmas miracle by saving me from being stranded in London that night. Cheers!

    Breakfast was appalling. Bacon was off - it looked grey and smelt bad. I sent the breakfast back. It was replaced but again the bacon was off For a five star hotel - this is very poor. I fail to see why it has 5 stars. I would rate it at 3 The room was very comfortable and quiet. However I found the shower difficult to operate and could only get tepid water for my shower
