Would Obama stay here? Umm...

We’re always up for hotel refurbs here at HotelChatter, so it’s nice to see 51 Buckingham Gate are keeping their rooms ticking over – they just renovated five suites at a cost of a cool $1.8million. Apparently:

The inspiration behind the renovation was to extend a feeling of tranquility, evoked by 51's unique setting, positioned around a secluded courtyard garden - a rarity in central London.

Would Obama stay here? Umm...

What’s most exciting about these rooms, aside from the presence of centrist purple, is that you can combine three of them to get a suite that extends over two floors, nine bedrooms and “extensive” living areas (we’d say so). They’re calling it The Presidential Floor. One to rival the Langham's new Presidential Suite, perchance?

Unfortunately, the place is still ridonkulously expensive. Rooms this weekend start at £388 – and that’s just for a junior suite. Forgive us if we save the trip for when we marry a Russki oligarch. Or a president, obvs.
