“Cocktail Bar Has Become A Victim of Its Own Success”

Reviewed 23 May 2013 NEW

I have been calling into the cocktail bar at Dukes for a number of years and sadly the service and attitude of the staff has deteriorated over the years. Given that Dukes has one of the best reputations for Martinis in London, they really ought to a) be more friendly given the high cost of the drinks b) listen to... More

“We will come back”

Reviewed 21 May 2013 NEW

We (two adults and two young kids) enjoyed a lot our stay at Dukes Hotel and this on all the aspects : staff, rooms, location... It was exactly what we were looking for. If we have the opportunity to come back to London, and it will happen, we will return to Dukes for sure.

“Charming, but needs a face lift”

Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

Small hotel in a great neighborhood. Rooms are very small. I was offered one room, that was literally closet sized. My eventual room was on the first floor- quite loud with inoperable windows. Service was friendly and accommodating, but the hotel needs an upgrade. The internet was unreliable. The "gym" was tiny. The bathrooms lacked modern amenities and touches. The... More

“Great location”

Reviewed 16 May 2013

The hotel was undergoing some changes during our stay, so there were some parts of the hotel which were unfinished. Otherwise it was lovely. The service was excellent and the drawing room was a nice place to have some tea after running about in the England fog.

“Lovely Afternoon Tea”

Reviewed 15 May 2013

I took my daughter for afternoon tea after she went to St James Palace to receive her Gold DofE Certificate. The staff were attentive and the service was excellent. We were made to feel welcome and the tea was served in stages which made us feel unhurried. We had Perrier Jouet champagne and a good choice of finger sandwiches. Small... More

We recently stayed at the Dukes, our second time, in three years and it was a great experience with one exception. The staff and concierges all were professional and very willing to help, especially Ian and Mayur. The rooms were clean and everything was as advertised. Our only problem was that some other guest in our proximity didn't abide by... More

I recently stayed in this little boutique hotel for a few days over the bank holiday and I cant fault it.

“Boutique Hotel that disappoints”

Reviewed 7 May 2013

We had high expectations of this hotel having read the reviews. We had taken note of the small rooms and managed to get an upgrade to a superior room. What that says about the other two levels of rooms (Dukes and Classic) is telling. The superior room is still on the small side. Decor is clean and basic and nothing... More
