About the Hotel
You might still spot politicians enjoying a reprieve from Parliament at The Royal Horseguards. It began life as The National Liberal Club in 1884 and was commandeered by the Ministry of Defense during both world wars to headquarter the M15 and M16, Britain's secret intelligence organizations. After undergoing a full renovation in 2008, sparkling chandeliers and contemporary accents join the oil paintings and rich red and gold furnishings that still retain the air of Westminster.

Reviews for The Royal Horseguards
An Outstanding Experience
This hotel is fantastic. The location is an easy walk to Trafalgar Square, Parliament, and Westminster Cathedral. Rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the staff is friendly and helpful. Top picks: 1. Ask the staff for a tour of this historic hotel and Churchill's private bar, and 2. See Alex in the Equus bar and order "The Churchill". Alex is an artisan mixologist, and The Churchill is not only historic but delicious. We cannot recommend the Royal Horseguards highly enough. It is a MUST STAY in London on the Thames.

The hotel was beautiful, as well as tranquil. The meals in both the restaurant and the bar were excellent. The dining service provided by Asa was particularly welcoming.

Excellent afternoon tea
All staff welcomed us with a ready smile. We had afternoon tea in The Green Parlour, an attractive room with a calm and cosy atmosphere. The tea was delicious and the offer of seconds was much appreciated. Our waiters, Bristi and Joe, were friendly and very attentive. We will certainly come again. Thank you for giving us a lovely experience.
