"Hotel 41 was the original Grand Ballroom of The Rubens Hotel, popular with debutantes and others associated with Buckingham Palace. I have been the General Manager here for nearly 20 years and, as a team, we are so proud to hold the prestigious Forbes Five-Star rating.
A chic, monochrome design runs throughout the hotel, complemented by mahogany-lined walls and smart leather furniture. Our residents-only Executive Lounge is the beating heart of Hotel 41, and we invite guests to relax here in an oasis of calm. Our charming and thoughtful staff work to your timetable and are always on hand to assist you.
Indulge throughout the day with delicious complimentary snacks and our unique 'Plunder the Pantry' concept in the evening. Allow our wonderful team to prepare your favourite drinks, served with the generous hospitality for which we are renowned.
41 is a very special hotel and one that I feel honoured to be at the helm of. We look forward to welcoming you to our hidden sanctuary overlooking the Royal Mews of Buckingham Palace very soon."
