This is a great place to stay. It is cool for some star spotting, the whole of the Barbarian Rugby Team stayed there a few months ago! It is centrally placed for great shopping, close to a host of restaurants and theatres. The staff are very helpful, their call centre routes through to the states and UK companies could learn a lot from the helpful manner of the telephone team. Rooms are great, some are a bit on the small side, but even so the quality is excellent.
Not cheap but then you get what you pay for.]]> Tue, 09 Sep 2008 13:02:32 +0000 /review/uk/london/hotel/1o4208y/st-martin-s-lane/106ko7491738525 LynnH 51.510576 -0.126982 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/hotel/1o4208y/st-martin-s-lane/1k20r8

I had a funny Friday evening out a couple of weeks back. It started out on the poshest of locations around 6pm and ended up in the exact opposite around 3am. I'll start with the classiest of the locations St Martin's Lane Hotel Bar.

If you appreciate excellently designed spaces you'll like this one. The hotel is architected to be more of an experience rather than just a place you sleep in, which is reflected in all the function areas like the bar. Very aesthetically pleasing. Great décor and ambience and a lot of beautiful - some of them achingly so- people too. You pay for all of that though two bottles of Tiger beer = £11. Now, that is expensive!
The bar features a wide selection of wine, beer and spirits. You'll find quite a few brands, not commonly seen in your standard bar or pub. The location is also great, being moments away from Leicester Square. If you want a quick business meeting in central London, this is an excellent choice. It's also a good one to go later on as it stays open until 3am. Don't be put off by the cost and do give it a try as it's quite a unique place.

The restaurant looks pretty cool too, but better go there with a nice corporate credit card.
