We came to the hotel to celebrate a birthday and a wedding anniversary and the staff couldn’t have been nicer. They put two pieces of cake in our bedroom and gave us a handwritten card saying congratulations. The area around the hotel is lovely, very walkable, and so easy to get to shows.

We had a lovely time at the Sofitel St James. The staff was very accommodating and so just so nice. Everyone had such a positive attitude and really seemed to enjoy their job.
