charming stay near buckingham palace

good breakfast attentive service
I thoroughly enjoyed my time here, the kona restaurant offered a good breakfast selection. fresh ingredients and attentive service made for a great start to each day. The location is perfect. it allowed easy access to st james park station, buckingham palace, and the guards museum. even umbrellas were available during rainy sightseeing days.
the hotel staff walked into our room without permission. it felt invasive. i hope management addresses these serious issues, because no guest should ever have to go through this.
