Nestled in the heart of London’s royal quarter, Taj 51 Buckingham Gate Suites and Residences offers a rare blend of history, elegance and contemporary comfort. With roots tracing back to the 1500s and the court of Queen Elizabeth I, this site later became the setting for the redbrick townhouses that Major Pawley commissioned in 1897, which today form one of London’s most distinguished all-suite hotels.
Just steps from Buckingham Palace, Westminster and St James’s Park, the location is ideal for both leisure and business travelers seeking proximity to London’s iconic landmarks and cultural institutions. The hotel’s discreet setting provides a sense of calm and exclusivity, while remaining connected to the city’s vibrant pulse.
Each suite is designed to feel like a private residence, complete with fully equipped kitchens, spacious living areas and refined interiors that reflect a quiet sophistication. Whether staying for a few nights or an extended visit, guests enjoy the comfort of home with the service of a five-star hotel. The One, Two- and Three-bedroom Suite offers townhouse charm with contemporary ease – perfect for families or those desiring extra space.
For those seeking something truly special, the Signature Suites, including the Jaguar Suite and the Cinema Suite, celebrate storytelling, craftsmanship and understated luxury. Complementing Taj 51 is its sister property next door, St James’ Court, A Taj Hotel, which shares the same ethos of warm hospitality and timeless elegance. Together, they offer a seamless experience that caters to every need, from intimate stays to grand occasions.
Culinary Excellence
Dining at Taj is a journey in itself. The Michelin-starred Quilon restaurant has been a London institution for over two decades, renowned for its south-west coastal Indian cuisine that balances bold flavours with refined presentation. House of Ming, with its Sichuan and Cantonese-inspired menu, offers a modern take on Chinese culinary traditions.
Afternoon Tea with a Twist
At Kona, guests can indulge in a Shakespearean-inspired Afternoon Tea – A Midsummer Night’s Dream – a whimsical and artistic interpretation of a beloved British ritual. It’s a delightful pause in the day, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Together, these two addresses present experiences that are quietly assured and thoughtfully curated, designed for those who expect nothing less than the extraordinary.
