Tub troubles

The only thing that caused us concern was getting into and out of your bath tub in our room whether for a shower or a bath...very precarious and no handles to hold onto to prevent a fall. That's a very high bath wall to step over to get into that tub and without a handle to steady you, quite dangerous. Exiting tub has same problem. Thank God we're still 72. Will be tougher later.

The Stafford is beautiful, classically British feeling, and staff was incredibly warm and helpful. Great location with easy access to Green Park tube station through a passage way across the street. Minor inconvenience is the bathroom has very little counter space / room for toiletries, but I find this is common in European hotels, and easily remedied if I had remembered a hanging toiletry case!

I booked this place, and was intrigued, because of all the 10/10 reviews. This place is costly but utterly amazing and impeccable decor, design and service. Imagine staying at the Oxford or Cambridge club, the Harvard, Yale or Columbia club or a fine gentleman's club. That is what this place is. Very stately. It would fit well in Kingsman, being in Mayfair and near Jermyn Street. If you want an impeccable stay in London this is the place. I loved the room and decor. They even had ceramics in the room. The toiletries are Penhaligons. There is a fruit bowl. If cigars were PC these days there would be those, but they aren't. Instead it is House and Garden and Vogue magazine. Staff knew their jobs. I like that. Stay in the main building to be near the American bar and dining. I love the American bar. I am American. I felt at home surrounded by other Americans, how do they do that? haha. So yes, this is a 10/10 stay. It is highly expensive but highly Kingsman stately. I recommend it at least once in your life. Nice cocktail menu too. I suppose the only sad thing is they rant out of oysters on the half shell.

The staff were incredible and made you feel like royalty. I cannot commend this hotel enough for the professionalism and attention to detail of their staff. The property is wonderfully located to many places of interest and all were within a short walking distance. My only complaint is that we were unable to stay there longer. If you are traveling to London, you must make this hotel your stay. It will make your visit that much more enjoyable and extraordinary.
