“What struck me most is its dedication to sustainability, blending seamlessly with the surrounding classic British touches; the location, mere steps from Buckingham Palace, is truly remarkable. I think the private residences, complete with their own kitchens and rooftop terraces, set a new standard for London stays. This is a place where luxury feels both personal and responsible.”

electronic features friendly staff romantic gesture
The room had amazing electronic features for lights and bathroom floor warming. This impressed me. The staff was friendly! A lady from reception even welcomed me before i stepped out of the car. My belongings were delivered upstairs upon arrival and back to reception when I left, a romantic gesture.
The room was very small and the price i paid does not reflect that.

the beautiful double room had a spacious feel to it. the bathroom had modern features and underfloor heating! it. the location allowed easy access to many attractions by foot.
the power points beside the bed did not work correctly, a side panel was coming off the wall! i had to push it to charge my phone. the phone in the room was not plugged into the wall charger properly. i had to use the speaker, or it would die.

a decent stay overall
comfortable bed convenient location condescending staff blocked sink
the bed and pillows were comfortable i slept well each night the room included a television that doubled as a mirror this was a neat feature. i also appreciated that the location was within a five minute walk of a tube stop this made getting around easy.
i found the staff to be pleasant but a little condescending someone asked if it was my first time in the city i have stayed here before. also the in room dining was not good the taste and quality were lacking the toilet sink was constantly blocked.

Really good Accommodation and Attentive Service
genuine smile helpful attitude luxurious suite spacious suite
General Manager Nicolas Monaglio demonstrated wonderful hospitality. I extend special thanks to Ali at reception. Ali greeted us each day with a genuine smile and a helpful attitude. The staff's attentiveness enhanced our stay. They were very accommodating. We enjoyed our stay in the Horsbrugh Residence. It was a luxurious and spacious suite.
There was practically no available table space to accommodate our belongings or room service food. This was a slight inconvenience.
