The Rubens
London, Central London, SW1W 0PS
The Rubens at the Palace lies at the heart of London’s biggest tourist attractions. For business or pleasure, it’s an unbeatable location. We are the closest hotel to Buckingham Palace, and within easy walking distance of Victoria Station and some of London’s best shops and restaurants. From our windows you can watch the comings-and-goings of the guardsmen in the Royal Mews, or you can step outside to share in the unforgettable daily pageant of the Changing of the Guard.
Many of the most popular sights are nearby: Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, Downing Street, The London Eye, and boat trips down the Thames to Greenwich.
To the north of the hotel lie the royal parks, two tree-lined expanses of open space with fabulous views of the surrounding architecture. Beyond them are Trafalgar Square, the National Gallery, and the shopping and theatres of the West End.
A walk westwards from the 4-star luxury Rubens at the Palace takes you to the exclusive shopping areas of Sloane Square, King’s Road, Sloane Street, and Knightsbridge. A little further on is Kensington and the great museums: the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Natural History Museum, and the Science Museum.
We’re also well connected to London’s public transport network. Our nearest underground station is just a couple of minutes away.
