St James Hotel and Club

St. James's Hotel and Club has been known for providing the highest standards of hospitality and service since it first opened its doors as a gentlemen's chamber for the English aristocracy in 1892. The secret of this intimate and elegant London townhouse hotel lies partly in its unrivalled location, in a quiet cul-de-sac just off St. James's Street in London's Mayfair. It is close to Green Park underground station; the exclusive shops and restaurants of Jermyn Street, the Burlington Arcade, Bond Street, the theatres and nightlife of the West End. St. James's Hotel and Club is currently undergoing complete renovation and will re-open in Summer 2008 under new management by luxury hotel group, Althoff Hotels (www.althoffhotels.com). Althoff Hotels operates seven luxury hotels in Germany and France, where it has a reputation for high-quality customised service and extraordinary gastronomy. Two of its restaurants have three Michelin stars and are among the best in Europe. The Group looks forward to bringing these qualities to London.This hotel has a non-smoking policy throughout the hotel.
