No. 41

This is without a doubt the best value in London if you are looking for a luxury hotel experience without the jaw dropping prices some of the other 5 star hotels charge. First of all, the service the staff provided was top notch. They are so friendly and accommodating it is almost a little too much (but believe me, I'm not complaining). The staff tries their very best to accommodate you in every way. They were constantly asking if there was anything they could do for us or get us to make our stay more enjoyable. There were only two problems with the service that I experienced, one having to do with a maid who got a little pushy about giving us turn down service when we hadn't left our room because we were going for a late dinner, and with a mixed up dinner reservation (which I think was actually the restaurant's fault), and would not hold either of these experiences against Hotel 41 in any way.

I was going with my girlfriend for a romantic four day sightseeing weekend so I booked one of their king size rooms instead of the regular double to get a little more space. For only a marginal amount of pounds more a night I think this was a wise decision because the room was larger than expected. It had a king size bed, a small sitting area, large closets and a bathroom with a shower and a tub. The room is immaculate and the black and white decor is very, very charming. My girlfriend was very impressed and knowing how much luxury hotel rooms can cost in London I was very grateful that they made me look so good.

The location in my eyes was perfect. It is right next to the Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace. This means that you are not too far from the action of the Picadilly Circus/Leicester Square/Trafalgar Square tourist attractions, but far enough away to not have to deal with the craziness that comes with being right in the middle of it all. You are also equally close to Knightsbridge and neighborhoods like Kensington and Notting Hill. The hotel is a two minute walk from the Victoria tube station and the Victoria Palace Theatre where Billy Elliott is performed (great show by the way).

I loved Hotel 41 for all of the above reasons. The staff and their service, the decor and style, and the location and access met our needs perfectly. If I had to say one thing that you might not like about it, was the size. I believe it is on one single floor. The hallways are small and the rooms are not huge. But like I said, we thought it was perfect for us and I just thought I would point this out in case somebody is not looking for a smaller boutique hotel which this one is. One of the best hospitality experiences I have ever had. Would stay there again in a heart beat.

This was our first time to London and I wanted to stay in a really nice hotel. I picked 41 because of the TripAdvisor reviews. I don’t think I could have made a better choice. We had 5 nights to spend in London and only stayed here. From the moment that we walked in, the experience was awesome. All of the staff was welcoming and ready to do whatever was needed. We stayed in an Executive King Room, which was beautiful and roomy, as was the bathroom. We were celebrating our anniversary and after a day of activities, we returned to find a cake in our room. Our package included a complimentary dinner in The Library (a hotel restaurant). I expected it to be good but it was excellent. Both the food and service were wonderful. A full English breakfast each day was also included in our package. There was a nice selection, the food was great and the service was wonderful. I believe the hotel is in an excellent location to see London. The Victoria Station is nearby for underground access. Buckingham Palace is right down the road and walk just a little bit further you will get to Big Ben, Parliament and Westminster Abbey. I have no complaints about our stay here and when we return to London, we know where we’re staying!

This boutique hotel absolutely surpassed our expectations. We have traveled to many of the world's most beautiful cities and regions, but have never had such a relaxing stay in such fine surroundings, due in part to the wonderful staff and their level of service. The decor is very stylish and well done, but it is the attitude of staff and the level of amenities and service that elevated our experience here to one of true excellence. Daily complimentary cocktail and canape hour (it actually lasts for two), complimentary internet (not yet common in London hotels), and wonderful suggestions from staff for things to do and see while in London all enhanced our stay. The location was outstanding....directly across the street from the Queen's Mews portion of Buckingham Palace. The rooms were stylishly finished with quality as a priority, the turndown service surpassed any previous experience we've had (it included soft music playing, floating candles lit, etc), the washrooms have a separate shower in addition to the charming bathtub, we appreciated the heated towel rack.....and on it goes. There is a gorgeous glass ceiling in part of the executive lounge (which is available for all guest to use). Thank you to all of the wonderful staff at Hotel 41. We hope to return to London in the future and look forward to staying again with you.
