What time do you actually have to arrive at the Palace? You might not have as much time for sightseeing as you think.

There’s one on the corner of Bressenden Place which is opposite the palace garden but I don’t recall the name of it. It’s nice though.

I’ve found it. The Rubens Hotel will do the trick. Lovely place for refreshments etc.. Literally 2 minutes walk from the Palace entrance.
