  • Ronald: Best Butler EVER!

    “Wow. Where to start. The Lanesborough is just gorgeous. Truly one of the most beautiful properties. The history is rich and the property is simply stunning. Each room has its own story. The color schemes and design make them all so unique. The customer service was incredible. Some of our family was moving from another hotel and they took care of them in such helpful fashion. The thing that really stood out is everyone is treated like a VIP. But we felt this even moreso thanks to our butler, Ronald. When I say he was the nicest, most hospitable, outgoing person I have ever met. The Lanesborough is SO lucky to have him. The fact the hotel has someone like him says all you need to know! To that, everyone was just wonderful…he just really stood out in his ambition to go above and beyond. This beats any of the other 5 star hotels in the area. There was nothing drab or ordinary. All was simply extraordinary.”

    “The afternoon tea with fake flowers, dry untasty sandwiches, mini cakes which the chocolate one is very bad the slow service (we had to wait 30mns to be served) they could at least have served us the tea, the food is very low quality and no music the pianist is there only on saturday so very low budget place for a 5 star hotel not worth 92pds , don t do it you d waste your money!”
