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
More than happy, very good stay in the hotel
Location very good next to the underground, so easy to visit London Atmosphere very nice, nice people at the reception, grooms more than nice, really nice persons Rooms perfect, a little problem with the room next to mine with only one door to separate, people in the other room were not discret at all, no matter of the neighbours! Restaurant very nice good food and the service kind, nice and perfect! Conclusion, next time in London I will be back there but I will pay attention to the room

Huge disappointment!!
Incredibly bad customer service . At check in receptionist took my id card and disappeared into the back office for a considerable amount of time with no explanation ,I was left just just standing there , luckily another member of staff came by and explained that their systems were down and check in needed to be done manually in the office . Room was freezing - I tried for 2 hrs to get it to warm up to no avail - I called reception desk for 1 hour continuously with no reply !! I Had to physically go down to the reception desk , only to be told they hadn’t heard the phone ringing !!! For 1 hour the phone kept ringing and no one heard it ??? Unbelievable!!! This is a beautiful hotel in a fantastic location but the customer service and the front desk reception staff are way below par !!! I will never recommend this place nor stay here ever again .What a disappointment.

Birthday weekend stay
Overall very enjoyable stay. Only criticism is the inappropriate music in the bar and Green Parlour.

No Hot Water
Spent the weekend in room 830 and we are really disappointed with our stay. No hot water all weekend, various excuses from reception. A TV that didn’t work and kept switching itself off and a bar with inattentive staff. Really poor for a weekend we were looking forward to at what at the price should have been a great experience.
