Gorgeous designs and interior at this hotel, but some essential basics missing, such as no coffee/tea making facilities in the room, and no charge point next to my husband’s bed. Weird to overlook the basics!We loved the rooftop though

Have been to the Ham yard many times, always really enjoyed it, always thought of this place as a luxury hotel. Went at the weekend for a drink with friends after dinner. There were a lot of things that were not right, that I would not normally mind to much but when you are paying for a luxury service it should be part of it. Firstly we ordered champagne, this was left in a bucket of water at the table from a previous sitting. No ice in there just the old water. Not major but okay. One of the glasses was cracked, again not major but nobody checked. We ordered some cocktails after this, we had a really awkward exchange with the waiter. Who got their manager. Not really necessary but fine. The manager was then very rude, really disengaged and didn’t want to help. I understood that he didn’t really need to be called over however this was on the staff rather than us. Once we had sorted the situation with the manager, he returned with a drink and threw it down. Again I wouldn’t mind but when you have paid £20+ per drink, you’d hope for a bit of respect. Although not major things, I think the service really let down what should be a memorable experience every time you go to a place like this.

We visited for just one night. The hotel is in a great position for many West End theatres and Regent Street. It is very smart and the staff are very polished and appropriately helpful and deferential for a five-star hotel. …

We had 3 rooms booked and got upgraded - yay. My kids had never stayed here and were blown away with the total package - rooms, staff, and the great breakfast. Throughout our stay my son ate through the breakfast menu!! Always an amazing experience and can never fault it.

This is my favorite hotel in the world! The rooms are beautifully appointed and the staff is always inviting and helpful. The doorman is one of my favorites. He is always happy to greet you back and send you off making sure you have everything you may need - including an umbrella. I most recently was there with my 4 month old grandson and the hotel provided us with everything we needed and more. The restaurant is a hidden gem and has some of the best food I have eaten in London. The breakfast is off the charts! Can’t wait to get back there in January!I have also stayed at their sister property the Whitby in NYC and it is very bit as beautiful and that staff is great too!
