    We had a fantastic stay at Rubens at the Palace in London. The location is unbeatable—just steps from Buckingham Palace and within easy walking distance to see the Changing of the Guard. Surrounded by excellent restaurants and nestled in a vibrant area, it made exploring the city incredibly convenient. The hotel itself is full of charm and character, with standout service that truly sets it apart. Special thanks to Pascal, the incredible doorman, who quite literally runs into traffic to hail cabs—his energy and dedication are unmatched! In the evenings, we loved unwinding at the New York Bar, which features top-notch live entertainment and some of the best bartenders in the city. Whether you're visiting for business or pleasure, Rubens offers a memorable London experience with classic hospitality and flair. Highly recommended!

    We stayed at The Rubens for five nights recently, and had a great experience. A wonderful location, exceptional service, and elegant interior. We looked forward to their lovely breakfast each morning, and had a great lunch and dinner at two of their other restaurants. The staff was friendly, professional, and always ready to help. Highly recommend!

    Reuben’s was an absolutely splendid stay. From the moment we checked in, we felt warmly welcomed by all the staff. They were not only kind but also genuinely personable, which made all the difference. Our room, while small, was charming and beautifully decorated. We experienced a minor issue with the air conditioning, but it was resolved within five minutes by a respectful and efficient staff member. We stayed for four days and loved how conveniently located the hotel was—just across from Buckingham Palace and within easy walking distance to many iconic monuments and parks. Breakfast was a delight, with freshly prepared meals rather than a standard buffet, and afternoon tea was spectacular. The variety of pastries, sandwiches, and the curated tea menu made it a truly memorable experience. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you for spoiling us on our honeymoon!

    Service was amazing, all the staff were super friendly and really added to our experience. They all took time to interact with my family and really ask how each of us were doing. I really appreciated this level of attention, warmth and customer service. I can’t thank you enough for your hospitality, I take away great memories because of you! Finally, to put the cherry on top, what a location, views of Queens Mews from our bedroom and within walking distance to all the high profile attractions. Loved every second of our stay!
