I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, perfectly situated across from Hyde Park, making it easy to explore the area and visit nearby attractions. The service I experienced was outstanding, with attentive staff who made my anniversary feel special. The dining options were excellent, especially the breakfast buffet which was absolutely delightful. However, I found the rooms to be a bit on the smaller side, which is typical for London hotels, but they were beautifully appointed.

I had an incredible experience at the Royal Lancaster London. The staff made us feel at home with their anticipatory service, and the location was immaculate right by Hyde Park. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, and I enjoyed excellent dining options. My only hiccup was the lack of available plug sockets in the room, which could use some attention.
