The “Rubens At The Palace”, a magnificent historic deluxe hotel, is a London rendezvous in the grandest of styles. The closest hotel to Buckingham Palace, adjacent to the Palace Gardens, this fantastic boutique hotel lies at the heart of London’s biggest tourist attractions. For business or pleasure, it’s an unbeatable location. From the relaxed ambience of the glass-panelled Palace Lounge you can watch the comings-and-goings at the Royal Mews opposite, or you can step outside to share in the unforgettable daily pageant of the Changing of the Guard.
The most popular sights are nearby: Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, Downing Street… And many of London’s best shops and restaurants are within easy walking distance.
When The Rubens was built in 1911, it was popular with debutantes, a class of aristocratic young ladies. After almost a century of fine living, the building has lost none of its majestic grandeur. The chandeliers gleam as brightly, the decor is as rich, and the staff are as helpful, discreet, and attentive, providing outstanding personal service and first class comfort. According to the philosophy “No request too large, no detail too small” the guest’s fulfilment is their main mission.
The choice of luxury 4-star accommodation is breathtaking: 143 deluxe guest rooms, ten luxurious suites and the exclusive Royal Wing with eight rooms themed after a British king or queen. Whichever room you choose, there are no compromises on comfort, serenity and style.
The Rubens has superb facilities throughout: An extensive buffet style carvery in the Old Masters' Restaurant never fails to satisfy, whereas the more formal Library Restaurant delights with sophisticated A la Carte classics, and an equally impressive selection of the finest wines. The Cavalry Bar is a richly decorated retreat, popular for its upbeat mood, inventive cocktails, and aged malts.
