Hotels near St. James, London

The heating in the room was excellent, and the Wi-Fi signal was strong. The room was cleaned promptly every day. A twin room is a rare find in London, which was a big plus. The hotel is conveniently located, just a five-minute walk from the British Museum, and right next to the prestigious UCL. Its location is truly superb, with several metro stations nearby and a plethora of bus options. If I had to pick one inconvenience, it would be the front desk staff's Indian accent, which I found difficult to understand – a bit 'curry-flavored,' so to speak. However, this is quite common in the UK. Overall, the value for money here is outstanding.

I always stay at this hotel every time I go to London. It is right outside the subway station, opposite Trafalgar Square, and only a dozen minutes' walk from Chinatown and Soho. The Thames is just a few minutes in the opposite direction, and Big Ben and the London Eye can be seen in ten minutes. However, among hotels with the same geographical location and comfortable environment, this one is the cheapest! !

Air conditioning is broken(turn on but no wind) Since I am living in underground with no windows room, so it were hard to sleep at the night But the staff were very helpful try to fix and give us a fan try to help us felt better

Great staff, very friendly. The location was perfect for us, walkable distances to st Pancras train station, soho, covent garden, museums, big ben, gilian theatre etc. Nice restaurants nearby. The only downside is the room temperature... Way too hot, even when outside is only 15 degrees Celsius, inside you need a blanket to sleep.. If you dont like warm and cozy and prefer a cool room for a good nightsleep, don't stay here.

Great location, close to the metro, main streets, shops, and cafes. The hotel itself is lovely with spacious rooms and a very comfortable bed and mattress. Breakfast includes fruits, bread, cold cuts, cheese, yogurts, and made-to-order omelets and juices.

Room was spotless, water bottle recycling excellent, chocolate biscuits very appreciated. Shower great. Room was hot so had to take sheet off duvet. Unfortunately plumbing is terrible every time a toilet flushed there was loud noise loud enough to wake you. I was woken at least 20 times in the first night and around 10 times the second night. The £7 token for not having your room cleaned is really eco I love that idea

Good overall. I got handicap room so not sure if this is standard but the interior is very underwhelming compared to Conrad in Asia. However, service is good. One thing is the bed is too soft not in a good way (either old or not sure if intentional) that it makes your back ache, so not ideal for older people with back pains

I recently stayed at the Gem Langham Hotel and had a very good experience overall. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help, which made my stay enjoyable. The hotel was well-maintained and had a nice atmosphere. However, I was disappointed that there was no fridge in the room, which I would have expected from a 4-star hotel. It would have been a convenient addition. Despite this, the stay was pleasant, and I would consider returning.

I've stayed at this hotel for about a week on and off, and I genuinely recommend it. First off, in a city like London, everyone knows that hotel prices can be really expensive. So, being able to stay in a room like this for around £1000-£1500 is actually really good. As for the location, it's quite safe since it's near a university, and the postcode is also in the central-west area. **Facilities**: What I think is the smartest decision this hotel made is choosing to renovate the bathrooms in 2024. A full redesign of the entire room would probably be very costly, but by focusing on the bathrooms, it makes the whole place feel clean, and they've genuinely achieved a proper wet/dry separation. **Service**: There's always someone at the front desk, which is a key difference from Airbnb-style accommodations, and I really appreciate that. The service attitude is also quite good. **Environment**: The area is quite safe, and connectivity is good. There are plenty of parks and breakfast spots nearby, and you can easily hail a cab. It takes about half an hour by bus to Chinatown, which is pretty much the average travel time to most places. **Hygiene**: The room is very tidy, and even the duvet covers are cleaner than those in some five-star hotels. Plus, housekeeping is provided daily.

Great location, friendly staff and great luggage storage for free on the day of departure. Our room was comfortable with a basin and a wardrobe. There was a fan and we had the window wide open as it was stifling in London this week. The only negative is that the loo/ shower wasn’t on our floor - so it was a bit of a gamble whether you would need to wait for it on the level below or above.
