This was my second stay at South Place, booked because the first stay was so brilliant. It was just as good second time around- our suite on the 6th floor was divine (the glass bath tub- wow!) We had drinks in the two bars which are lovely- cocktails are great- and we had dinner one night in The Angler restaurant on the 7th floor. This was a real highlight- delicious food, beautifully presented and the service was very slick yet friendly. The staff at the hotel are smiley, helpful and very efficient- nothing is any trouble at all. Thank you South Place for another magical stay- I'm looking forward to my third visit already.

Dear Bethiboo,

Thank you for taking the time to write a second review following your stay with us.

I am so pleased you enjoyed the hotel during both of your stays and were able to experience our very special suite which has the unique glass bath tub. Angler is a popular restaurant and the team works very hard to ensure consistent top quality service and dishes.

We are very much looking forward to welcoming you back to the hotel for the third time in the future.

Warm regards,

Susanne Traudt
Hotel Manager

Great hotel in the City. Boutique chic with excellent attentive service. Marco, bartender in the Members Club on the 1st Floor can mix a wicked cocktail. You have to try his Trinidad! I stayed 6 nights and had a blast. From check-in to checkout the whole experience made me feel special. I had a room with free non-alcoholic minibar which was a real plus. The ground floor bar is excellent and Maria, our waitress, looked after my group extremely well. Well worth a visit!

This is my second time at the hotel and I must say that I really do love it!

South Place easily ranks up there as one of my favorite hotels in the world along with the SLS in Miami and The Library in Koh Samui. Everything from the design, the quality of staff to the attention to detail with the little things that make this hotel pretty much perfect. I like lively, fun, modern, luxury hotels and for me South Place ticks all the boxes.

South Place has good bars, good restaurants, rooms that are well equipped, comfortable, a good size, spotlessly clean, and tastefully decorated in a modern but warm style and staff that are professional but welcoming,.

Even the breakfast was good unlike in so many hotels where it's such a disappointment and why I never go for rooms including breakfast usually however I was pleasantly surprised at South Place... To put it bluntly, I hate buffets which most hotels always have for breakfast. I want my food freshly prepared when I ask for it and not sitting in a warmer since 6am with half the hotel guests breathing over it. I'm pleased to say South Place is an a la carte breakfast menu which is a rarity these days in hotels.

My only one gripe is because I mostly come to London for a small amount of work and then to party I do wish the hotel was based a bit more west in South Kensington but that's hardly the hotels fault and it's testament to the hotel that I'm willing to stay there even though it's not in the area I spend most of my time when in London.

One thing I also love about this hotel is the attention to detail that so many hotels miss out on, small things that you don't even think about that make a difference are things like having enough glasses of different sizes in the mini bar, fresh lemon and lime already in the room for drinks, big size shower gel and shampoo in the bathroom. I've honestly never understood why nearly every hotel in the world insists on only giving you enough shower gel to wash a pet mouse rather than a human. It's such an obvious simple thing to not have to ration your shower gel like I have to in other hotels but all these little things add up to make your stay simply better.

This is now my "goto hotel" in London having stayed in a lot over the years and I can't recommend South Place highly enough.

Starting with the front Desk at check In the staff were super Nice and showed us to our Eden Room which with its cool wet-room was Charming. Their Michelin star restaurant Angler on the top floor was perfect. Breakfast didn,t disappoint either had the full English with Hot Toast all served speedily with a smile. Great Location in the City of London with much to do if you want to, If not just do nothing and visit the Spa within the hotel all round I can,t wait to go back.

Fabulous modern design, greatly equipped and rather spacious (compared to London standard) rooms, great bar, simply great in many respects. If only the breakfast is buffet rather than by order. It takes you minimum 15-25 mins to get served and eat it ... :-(

Room tip: Try to avoid the rooms heading to the construction site on the opposite side of the road, it is really noisy.
