One night staycation at The James!

We only stayed one night. Room is very clean, bed is comfortable, air conditioning works well, all appears to be clean and looked after. The view of the river is worth a million bucks. Includes comfy robes, an espresso machine, and a full fridge of items to purchase to drink, or small snacks. I would definitely stay here again, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. The lounge was a nice spot for a night cap. The included breakfast is top notch, with a small buffet, and also table service for made to order items. And the coffee is very good! I would love to have had a balcony to sit out and enjoy the view. But we did not splurge for that this time.

Construction noise

We booked this hotel for a romantic night away. Staying at the James is a treat as it’s more pricy than our usual choices. The beds, linens and suite were all wonderful. The breakfast, delicious and lovely. What wasn’t lovely was that we were not informed there was a construction situation in the room directly across from us. We wanted to have a leisurely morning in our suite before checking out and heading home to reality. But the hammering / banging made it impossible to hear ourselves think, let alone relax. We called down to ask for it to be dealt with, they said they’d check into it but we never heard back a thing. We checked out earlier than we wanted to and headed home with disappointment.

The rooms are spacious but the property is very dated. The food isn’t great. The staff are nice and the location is not centrally located. The lounge is closed on Sundays which is inconvenient.

Every aspect of the unit was above average. However, the beds are far too high for a short disabled person, I had to use a chair to get on the bed.

Beautiful hotel, comfortable and well situated on the river pathway so can walk everywhere! The staff are welcoming and gracious. The suites have every possible luxury including top end espresso makers, bathrobes, soft sheets, comfortable beds, L’Occitane bath products, and very comfortable beds. We had a balcony and river view. And the breakfast which is included, is delicious with a chef to prepare your eggs to order! One of the nicest hotels I’ve stayed in!
