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
Disappointing quality
Bedding and food quality was very disappointing. The duvet was poor quality. Pillows were a variety but non they were good quality. Staff were great and location was great

We had a fantastic two-night stay at The Royal Horseguards and would happily return. The hotel is beautiful, full of character, and ideally located for exploring London, with many attractions within easy walking distance. From the moment we arrived, the staff were welcoming, professional, and always willing to help. Our room was comfortable, clean, and well presented, making it easy to relax after a day sightseeing. The atmosphere throughout the hotel felt elegant yet friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and were very pleased with the service. We would recommend The Royal Horseguards and look forward to staying again.

Great location for Westminster and West End
Great hotel for Churchill War Rooms/London Eye/ Trafalgar Square/ Theatres. Although not great value for money, it is very good quality and offers an excellent breakfast.

Exceptional Service from Asa
We had a fantastic experience thanks to Asa. She was friendly, attentive, and incredibly professional throughout our visit. Asa made us feel genuinely welcome, checked in at just the right moments, and was always happy to help with a warm smile.

Fantastic Hotel in Great Location!
Friends recommended the Royal Horseguards Hotel. We loved it. In the Westminster area, walkable to Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Churchill War Rooms, Buckingham Palace, the theater district, Covent Garden, tons of shopping and restaurants. Along the Thames. And whatever we couldn’t walk to, it was a two minute walk to the Tube. Clean, comfortable, large rooms with plenty of storage. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend.
