If there is a 7 star option, this staff should receive it. The facility was incredible, the staff always seemed to anticipate our needs. I will always look to see if there is a Taj Hotel now where we travel to.

The stay was good. Service was fabulous. Will recommend anyone wanting to stay near Buckingham palace this place.. One thing to say - The breakfast could be different ..All the 7 days I stayed there, the Indian varieties in the buffet were repeated...India has such a diverse taste palatte, having the same food almost everyday was boring ..and even the other spread which never changed could be different ..the croissants, salads ..everyone is a tourist, business person who come for a change of scene ...engaging them will be great..Thanks.

I love that this hotel has a lot of history and is so close to all the sites you want to see! The staff can help get you to anywhere you want to go. We used Uber and taxis, but most of the time we walked to meet our tour groups and go to restaurants. The concierges are great!

This property is very dated and not in great shape. 2 of 3 elevators were not working the entire stay, you could tell they had been that way for a long time. The waits on the elevators were very long as the hotel was busy. The room I was in had not been updated for decades. The carpet was very warn and dirty, the tub was so high it was hard to get into and the bathroom faucet was barely attached to the sink. The card to get into the room was so old fashion that if you put it near your phone it had to be reset. The mini refrigerator did not work. There was no doorman to help with bags when I arrived. Overall for the charge I have stayed in much better hotels in London. Just needs a complete updating.
