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
Ok but i’v stayed in cheaper and better 4star hotels in London.
Great location for central London access, nice hotel albeit a little bit tired in places, staff very good and attentive. Facilities are limited, complementary bar is a nice touch, room was clean and tidy, bit on the small side but ok for us as a couple. Free WiFi was good quality, breakfast is ok, buffet style plenty of choice but can be a bit dry if you get there much after 8.30. Had a meal in the 1212 restaurant which was very good quality and reasonable price for the capital. Sadly no outdoor space was available due to maintenance work. Paid extra for a garden view which consisted of a window view of a tree! Overall I would say it is probably 4 star rather than 5

Central location, friendly staff
Room was somewhat smaller than I expected and had a "view" of the internal courtyard. This could have been made clearer at the time of booking. Be that as it may, the staff were friendly and helpful, and mini bar items are FOC. Mohit who brought my dinner on two occasions was really nice and we had a good conversation. That always lends a more personal touch.

Opinion
I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding hospitality and professionalism of the entire staff. Everyone made us feel truly welcome and took the time to explain everything with great care and kindness. A special thank you to Humaira and Emily, the Reception Manager, for their exceptional attention and genuine warmth. They made our stay even more memorable. Our suite was absolutely amazing, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and the dining room was spacious and beautiful. My wife and I celebrated a wonderful birthday at your hotel, and words cannot express how grateful we are for such a special experience. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay unforgettable. We hope to return again in the future.
