Royal Over-seas League

In my opinion ROSL is one of the nicest private clubs in London. Great location, just behind the Ritz, lovely garden overlooking Green Park and grand rooms full of charm and elegance. It’s such a lovely tranquil space amongst the hustle and bustle of London. The drawing room is one of my favourite places. You can just relax and read the newspapers and if you fancy something to eat there are two restaurants that you can choose from. This place is just lovely.

We loved our stay here - thank you for having us! As younger, reciprocal club members we were unsure what to expect, but ROSL were fantastic 😊 The location is truly unbeatable. The staff were all immensely helpful, nice and accommodating. The rooms were very clean and spacious. The building itself is gorgeous and breakfast was really great! Highly recommend - will definitely be staying here again when in London next.

Attended the QE II memorial concert which was superb, all 4 performers being outstanding. Then had supper which was, as ever, excellent. Our room was cold as the heating system's remote control wasn't working. However, one of the night receptionists was quick to respond to our call and he provided a replacement, showing us how it operated, after which everything was fine. Breakfast was the usual high standard. All very satisfactory, thank you.

ROSL is a members-only club, founded in 1910, located right behind the Ritz. In 1960 the Queen has granted it the title "Royal", but its membership fees are quite democratic. The club's restaurant is very good, its wine list is outstanding. The club organises the events that allow members to visit places that are otherwise closed to public (garter ceremony in Windsor, tea at the House of Lords, ...)

Myself and some colleagues recently visited the Royal Overseas League for a number of meetings. Discreetly tucked away on Park Place with impressive views onto Green Park, the building is like stepping back in time, though beautifully and sympathetically modernised. We enjoyed lunch at the 1910 restaurant which serves extremely good food given the very modest pricing. I can’t imagine eating this well, for the price, anywhere in this part of London. A special thank you to the wonderfully hospitable (not to mention historically knowledgable) General Manager, Warren Miller, who along with his team, made us very welcome. We will be returning soon and a couple of our party are also planning to become members. Truly a hidden gem
