Description
The Berkeley is perfectly placed for the shops and stores of Knightsbridge and Sloane Street and has two of London's most sought-after restaurants, Gordon Ramsay's Boxwood Café and Marcus Wareing's Pétrus. The Blue Bar is one of London's hottest spots for cocktails. The Caramel Room serves breakfast, cocktails, lunch and afternoon tea. The rooftop Spa provides all the latest beauty treatments.
The Berkeley is situated in the heart of one of London's most elegant residential areas, assuring guests, who come to enjoy the wide choice of classic and contemporary suites, a peaceful and relaxing stay. The Berkeley's rooftop Health Club and Spa features a retractable roof over the pool in the summer. The Club also offers exclusive DDF products, offering a wide range of their exclusive treatments.
Boxwood Café, an informal restaurant by chef/patron Gordon Ramsay, opened in the space formerly occupied by Vong. Los Angeles-based Barbara Barry has orchestrated the redesign which incorporates colors and treatments evocative of an English garden. Petrus, an award-winning restaurant operated by chef-patron Marcus Wareing, moved from its former location on St. James's Street. David Collins, also known for his work on The Berkeley's trendy Blue Bar, redesigned the interior.

don't stay here
Had the misfortune of staying here on monday night,absolute farce that people would have to pay money to stay in this poor excuse for a hotel. To say staff were incompetent is being kind. There was a definite language barrier with staff, although not all as I can see from previous comments which one can only assume they have left themselves. Rooms were not serviced adequately ie unmade beds, dirty glasses, bathroom.. I can't even begin to convey the state of bathrooms. Staff did not believe this to be a major issue. I also, on leaving, experienced the staff dealing with a guest whose room would not lock as the lock was broken, they offered no remuneration for this absolute paramount of features of a hotel room, particularly in a city such as London. shockingly bad. If you are even looking for a basic get away, seek elsewhere for cheaper and you will definitely get something far better for your money

extremaly dissapointing
I stayed at the Berkeleys 2 days in June, was about to be there for 4 nights but shorten my stay because this hotel has completly nothing to offer! Vary rude and unfriendly staff! If u dont tip they treat u without respect! Room condition horrible, furniture v old and impossible to sit on as if feels like they are about to break!!!
The worst of worst was when i saw 2 discusting insects (looking like cocroaches) passing by my bed!!! What a nightmare!!!
Someone should reduce the amount of stars!
Verry dissapointing.

just doen't work
Very plush on the surface but lots of things didn't work.
The superior king turned out to be 2 singles pushed together.
We stayed for 4 nights and I list below problems that should not exist in a hotel of this type.
1 day the room wasn't cleaned(management didn't apologise they sent the cleaner to do so.)
2. On 2 occasions the room not turned down.
3. Newspapers ordered but not delivered.
4. Leaky pipe and noisy lift kept one awake at night.
Other minor niggles which spoilt the overall stay.
Would not recommend it.

Luxury in Knightsbridge
We stayed for a night in a one-bedroom suite on the second floor, which had been refurbished. The suite was luxuriously decorated and furnished, and had televisions in the sitting room and bedroom. There was a sofa and armchair, coffee table and desk in the sitting room, with another armchair in the bedroom. There was a walk-in wardrobe which led to the huge bathroom (which could also be got to from the hallway). The bathroom was fabulous, with a very capacious walk-in shower and a large bath framed by faux-marble columns.
The Berkeley suffers slightly from being above an underground line, and on the second floor the trains can be heard (and felt): this might not be a problem higher up. Our room also had a rattling fan in the air-conditioning.
Lunch in the Boxwood Cafe was relaxed and very enjoyable, with efficient service and good food. Service at breakfast in the Caramel room was a little slow, but there was nothing wrong with it otherwise.
The public spaces at the Berkeley are relatively small, but very stylish. The Blue Bar is obviously the place to be in the evening, and is very busy and quite noisy later on.
One of the best aspects of the Berkeley is the rooftop terrace, pool, gym and spa. This is very good indeed, and could be a deciding factor in staying here (especially while the Savoy is closed).
Overall we were very pleased with our stay, and would be very happy to go back.

Bewitched by the Berkeley
Stayed for just one night as a very special occasion. Oh my goodness. What an awesome experience this was. From the moment we arrived we were treated like VIPs. Greeted at the kerbside and taken straight to our rooms. They were immaculate. Beautiully furnished. We used room service a lot due to one of our party being poorly. We weren't disappointed. Everything was fabulous, from presentation to the quality of the food and the generous portion sizes. We used the roof top pool.... roofless in the beautiful sun it was warm and such fun. Breakfast... what can I say..... fabulous buffet and amazing choice of hot dishes on request. Any negatives? Can't think of one. Oooh the bathrooms have Asprey soaps etc!!! Sooooo nice.
