Dating back more than 260 years, Trooping the Colour remains one of Britain’s most recognisable royal traditions. A display of military precision and pageantry marking the Sovereign’s official birthday.

First performed during the reign of King George II, the parade continues today in honour of His Majesty King Charles III, as regiments of the Household Division process through the heart of London.

Just moments from the royal parks and ceremonial route, DUKES London has long been part of the history and character that define St James’s.

For this edition of DUKES Uncovered, we look back at a royal chapter in the hotel’s history.

In August 1932, Crown Prince Michael of Romania and his mother, Queen Helen, made DUKES London their home for a month during an extended stay in the capital. From visits to London’s museums and cultural landmarks to quiet moments within St James’s, their time here reflected the enduring connection between DUKES and distinguished guests from across Europe.

Just a few years later, Michael would become King Michael I - the last King of Romania - securing his place in European royal history.

A tale of just a few of the remarkable guests who have passed through the doors of DUKES London.
