I spent 3 nights at The Stafford in February 2017 after a trip to Cambridge. I have been to England more times than I can count and have always wanted to stay at The Stafford. I stayed this time because of a discounted rate offer. It is a beautiful, elegant hotel with truly exceptional service. I have stayed at hotels all over the world and it is truly in the top tier in terms of elegance and service. The staff know their guests names and are of a very high professional standard, anticipating their guests needs. Great personal service without being obtrusive. Not just a place to spend the night, The Stafford is truly a wonderful experience in its own right.

Luxurious Boutique Hotel”

We stayed two nights in a junior suite at the Stafford and it was wonderful. The room was exactly as shown -- no surprises. The jr suite was very large, comfortable and quiet -- the bathroom was almost as large as the bedroom, with a wonderful shower and separate bath tub, two sinks. The staff was professional and friendly -- warm and welcoming. We had a peek in the American Bar, but because the weather was hot we choose to enjoy our drinks outside in the courtyard. The courtyard is a charming, relaxing place to enjoy breakfast or a drink -- we did both. We enjoyed dinner at their restaurant The Game Bird. Definitely would stay again at the hotel and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

I stayed for ten days. The staff were all extraordinary. American bar is very cozy, with cool and friendly bartenders and staff and the Game Bird Sunday roast was yummy. Rooms are very old fashioned British style, with a touch of real Elegance. Hotel location is great, with easy access to underground, few minutes walk to Mayfair, Piccadilly circus, SoHo, Covent garden, and right next to beautiful parks.

We stayed at the Stafford for three nights. Overall it was very nice and enjoyable. The location also was superb. My biggest complaint was the mattress, which definitely needed to be replaced. (I had a spring poking in my back, and it was rather like sleeping over a small trench, i.e. no lower back support)

I arrived at the hotel by car, late for an appointment. The staff whisked my car off to the car park and paid my congestion charge for me, they than arranged for a taxi to be waiting for me by the time I checked in. The room was well furnished and very comfortable. The only thing lacking was a view, but that didn't matter. The bar downstairs was very welcoming; there were plenty of local office workers there having a quiet drink before returning home.
