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.

I had a great 2 night stay here with my mother in February. The room was surprisingly large for a London hotel room. The staff was very helpful and accomodating and the location is fantastic. You can easily walk to big tourist sites and the nearest tube station is steps away.

We’ve stayed here before but a few years ago. Not a great start, lifts were grubby. All chipped paint, dirty brass. When we arrived at our room it was set up as a twin not double. A bit rubbish when they zip the bed together to make it a double. The bed was worn out my back was killing by the morning. - big dip in the middle of each side. Again chipped woodwork in the room on furniture. Bathroom was ok but sink was literally less than an arms each of the toilet. Facing each other. Signs all over the bathroom like caution hot water etc ruined the aesthetic. Breakfast was ok however the tea was too weak, pots too large and I’m guessing cheap tea bags. No nightly turndown at all. And black out curtains would be a good addition in the rooms. Overall for the price it was ok but if we paid more I would have been annoyed more.

Check in was simple and welcoming. Our room was comfortable with a great view. The slippers and dressing gown were a nice extra touch. A great location. Breakfast was great with lots of choice. Thank you.

Loved our stay at the Royal Horseguards. Great hotel, fabulous location and great food. We’ll definitely be back for our next theatre trip!

Attention to detail is the key to a good hotel and Royal horseguards has plenty of detail. The doorman Peraz especially comes to mind. The room was large and well appointed with a great view of the London Eye. Breakfast was served in a well appointed room. We had an excellent selection of continental and English Breakfast to choose from the buffet. All in all well done.
