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
Comfortable stay with great service – breakfast could be better
I stayed at The Royal Horseguards Hotel in London this October and really enjoyed my time there. The hotel is elegant and spotless, with a calm atmosphere and genuinely pleasant staff. A special thanks to Mohit, who was especially kind and helpful throughout my stay. The room was comfortable and not small at all by London standards — a nice surprise. Room service food was excellent, both in quality and presentation. The only downside was breakfast: the pastries felt like they were from the previous day, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, though, it was a very pleasant and comfortable stay in a great location. I’d be happy to come back.

Perfect afternoon tea
We had a lovely, relaxing afternoon tea here and the service from Bristi was excellent! Portion was generous and the cocktail was delicious. Highly recommend.

Ana at the Equus Bar is lovely!
When we arrived early at the hotel, we were warmly greeted and able to put aside our bags while we waited for our room. We headed to the Equus Bar and were helped by the lovely Ana. She was warm and welcoming and we will be back just to have her service! The food was excellent too. It’s a beautiful bar and made all the better with Ana. Starting our trip here in London out right!

First time to London
Loved this hotel! Everyone was so friendly and helpful, especially the doorman! The location was so close to Trafalgar Square but also very quiet. Loved the decor and all the amenities. Would definitely stay here again

My Expereine
The hotel is in relatively good location in London. The staff are friendly. The hotel is old and the facilities, bath room, is outdated and does not function. do not expect too much.
