Elevator back up problems.
The hotel is beautiful overall, but it is unacceptable to have only one functioning elevator in a seven story large hotel. This has been an ongoing problem that seems to not have a resolution in sight.

Get the elevator fixed.
The service was great. The facilities were not up to standard. The hotel only had one elevator for such a large number of guests. It was a long wait coming and going. There was an apology placard for the other discontinued elevator, which just verified that this is an ongoing problem. There was no work being done during our six-day stay. The bathtub narrowed at the bottom, making it hard to stand and shower. The water pressure at the spa was excellent, but very weak in our room. The breakfasts were great. The room cleaning service each day was also great.

Amazing staff - everyone was friendly and welcoming! The hotel location is great close to two tube lines and minutes away from Buckingham palace. The room itself was great, recently renovated and incredibly comfortable. Only thing was our fridge had an odd smell so we couldnt use it and the elevators were slow as there was only one working for entire hotel.

Terrific Hotel in a Great Location
It’s was our 4th stay. Apart from a few very minor criticisms, we love the place. Great staff, lovely suite, very good breakfast. Having been awarded Guest of the Day previously, how could we stay anywhere else. Terrific hotel.

Excellent, well-kept property! I’d definitely stay here again; the premium suites are super spacious and gorgeous. The beds are a little more firm than I’d like but overall the hospitality was unmatched. Great, thoughtful customer service experience! It’s also in a great location.

This is my first stay at the St. James Court since the pandemic (My last visit was in 2018.) and I am happy to say that almost nothing has changed! Of course, you really can’t beat the location, but the hotel, while under some renovations, did not disappoint. I’m looking forward to my next visit!

Room was cosy and comfy. Courtyard was well taken care off. Breakfast was good. Shower door was not closing properly so water was leaking to the floor which was inconvenient.
