We had an amazing Christmas at this hotel. We loved our room, the staff, everything about the St. James is 5 star. This time they gave us a quiet room away from the sounds of trains at our request. Thanks for a wonderful Christmas!

Clean hotel, very comfortable bed, friendly efficient staff. The restaurant is terrific. Beautiful and light and inviting. Food and drink were excellent. The speakeasy bar downstairs is atmospheric while also warm and cozy. It was a real pleasure to stay in this historic hotel. Highly recommend
