“The hotel's bar stands out, famed as the birthplace of the Vesper martini and staffed by experts-a must-visit, though perhaps limit yourself to one! Tucked away in a quiet side street in St James's, the location is excellent, providing both tranquility and proximity to Buckingham Palace and Green Park. What strikes me most is the genuine commitment to maintaining high standards, reassuring for anyone seeking consistent quality.”
