The Royal Garden Hotel has always had an impressive ace card – its location. It’s just minutes from the tube station and high street, and being close to Kensington Gardens means many of the rooms have amazing panaramas. None of that has changed – but the refur- bishment has meant that those views are ever more present and are framed by contemporary spaces. In the Park Terrace you can enjoy a fantastic meal while also soaking up the views across Kensington Gardens thanks to the recent addition of a window-lined wall. Those in the know will have already sampled the delights of Min Jiang – the Chinese restaurant on the 10th floor. For those of you who haven’t, the food here is an absolute must – close your eyes and you’re transported east through the tastes and aromas of the dishes. The lobby too has also seen an impressive and stylish

transformation – bringing the entrance to the hotel bang up to date, without being overbearing or sterile. It’s a welcome any boss would be delighted with and the staff are quick to deal with any queries to ensure they’re resolved successfully. The service at the Royal Garden Hotel is second to none and everyone from the reception team to the restaurant staff make it their mission to ensure a comfortable staff. Completing the package the rooms have also been given the make-over magic to ensure a stay here is one to remember. Highly recommended for discerning bosses who like the finer things in life.
