Beautiful hotel. Room although quite small for a King room was beautifully furnished, very well maintained and very comfortable. The staff were excellent, they rang the room after we checked in to see if we were happy with the room and needed anything else. Food was 100% best Breakfast at a hotel I have ever eaten. And a lovely front... More

My first time at the Rubens and I was immediately struck by how helpful the staff were. The room, although not huge, was beautifully clean and all fabrics and finishes really well maintained. The bed was extremely comfortable - all in all a really pleasant stay. More

We found the hotel to be very comfortable and the staff excellent, helpful and polite. We had a double room and which was a good size with a very large, comfortable bed. The bathroom was modern with a great shower. Location is good, very near Buckingham Palace and Victoria Station and within walking distance (15-20 mins) of Big Ben and... More

We have been regular visitors to this Hotel over the past 25 years and on each occasion we have received excellent friendly service, great food and comfortable accomodation. We visited recently just for one night on our way to Gatwick and as usual nothing was too much trouble for the staff. We were given a lovely quiet room as requested... More

I have to say I love this hotel and it will always be my first choice when staying in Victoria. My first stay was for 2... More

The service at the Red Carnation hotels is above and beyond any other brand that I've stayed at. My room was sumptuous and the bed was extremely comfy. There's little touches everywhere, for example my turndown service included the addition of some "sleep spray" for my pillow! The food was delicious and overall my stay was well worth the money...

We have stayed at the Rubens on 4 occasions now and it is our favourite hotel. It has a lovely old glamour which is especially lovely at Christmas. The location is so handy (very near Victoria) and the staff are so helpful. We got engaged there this Christmas and the staff there were wonderful and made the whole thing so... More
