Ham Yard is a beautiful, charming and well located 5 star hotel in Soho; it really is an oasis for relaxing in Central London. We stayed for a few days and I wish we could have stayed longer. The bedrooms are stunning with the upmost attention to detail. Dinner on the terrace was perfect. The spa in the basement was a pleasant surprise. Finally the staff are exceptional. I would particularly like to mention the door staff who are pleasant and helpful from first thing in the morning, until late at night - especially Sandro. Additionally, the housekeeping staff, often the unseen workers in a hotel, are amazing. The rooms have to be stayed in to be believed. We're already booking a return stay.

We are huge fans of Kit Kemp and have stayed in several of her hotels in both the UK and US. The Ham Yard is by far her crowning achievement. Perfectly situated in the heart of SoHo, we were able to walk to dinner and theatre every evening. As always, her room decor is outstanding. The hotel restaurant is also superb.

An absolutely brilliant bowling experience at the Ham Yard Hotel. From start to finish, everything was seamless — stylish setting, great vibes, and impeccable service. I visited with a guest and we both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Special mention to Ricardo — while the entire team delivered first-class service, Ricardo truly went above and beyond. His attentiveness, warmth, and professionalism made us feel genuinely welcome, adding that extra sparkle to the day. Thank you, Ham Yard Hotel, for creating such a fantastic atmosphere and delivering an experience worth remembering. We’ll definitely be back.

Best hotel experience I have had so far. My girlfriend treated me to a birthday night in Soho, and the Ham Yard staff made it truly unforgettable. From start to finish, everything was perfect, and they made the whole experience a night to remember. I will definitely be visiting their other locations, simply magnificent.
