Without a doubt, 5*s.
Where do we begin?! From the very first moment we saw Sofitel and met with Sephora, we knew this would be the place where we our dreams will become reality. Sephora's down to earth, friendly and professional approach was an added bonus. We knew we could trust her and work alongside. The venue is an intimate and comfortably holds about 100 guests (our wedding). We had a package that suited our budget and had options to make this bespoke. Everything from start to finish was amazing. Our other suppliers praised Sofitel and all their staff, we must say Sephora, Ibrahim and Manon were amazing. I am sure there were many others. Absolutely recommend and crazy amazing photos too. We went to Pall Mall for a few shots. PERFECT! Thank you so much.

Lovely people, food and elegant venue
I cant make justice as to how its such a gem to work with Sofitel and SEPHORA! Exquisite and elegant, all friendly and customer first! I cant be any happier, they are very responsive, customised experience despite being 5 star. They made my dream wedding come true- even if I only had 15 guests! If was nothing short of perfect. I chose the best. They also accommodated by dog to attend and stay. PERFECT, LGBT friendly too, food is amazing, all of my guests are raving about it. For the price paid for on point FIVE STAR service… best use of money ever. I’d get married again at this place if I could… my 15 person intimate wedding was a dream.

exceeded our expectations for our wedding
Sofitel St James exceeded our expectations for our wedding celebrations. Sephora is exceptional - she saw our vision for our wedding and helped us execute it, attentive to detail, efficient and courteous communicator and all round lovely person (patient, kind and considerate). Our vendors also highly praised Sephora for her great service and communication with them. We also have to note Ibrahim, Minuit and the rest of the team, who are amazing, supportive and wonderful. Our reception was held in the Westminster Suite, which was exquisite. The food served was great - catered to all the needs of our guests which was amazing. We also stayed at the hotel for two nights, which was excellent each day. Every staff member was attentive, catered to our needs, helped us fulfill vendor requests and made our stay comfortable. Breakfast was divine - it is a must try! If you are planning a wedding and looking for a five star hotel, Sofitel St James will provide you with impeccable service. It was a stress free experience from start to finish - My husband and I will do it again if we could. Thank you Sofitel St James for making our wedding a beautiful experience and one with lasting memories in the midst of the pandemic.

'Make our dreams a reality'
'Sephora was phenomenal at organising and helping facilitate our wedding.We felt entirely confident in her abilities and she delivered over and above her duties to make our dreams a reality.She ensured contact and access was maintained for our suppliers and was a joy to work with. Sephora introduces us to Agnes to handle our room bookings and we got the very best price and service on arrival, whatever it was, we were covered and we are forever grateful.On the wedding day itself, the team we impeccable, highly professional and the chef managed to provide a fantastic 3 course menu, and created amazing Matcha Green Tea Entremets for dessert. Our guests are still talking about how well everything worked out, the team were sociable yet professional and I still feel joy in my heart for the magic they helped create.Thank you very much Sofitel!'
