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
Excellent service, great location

Excellent Location - authentic British Experience.
The right place to stay in Westminster. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Rooms are well maintained and comfortable. The Breakfast is first class. My only advice is to check the price of the booking frequently after original booking, as the price for your reservation may change as sales occur giving you an opportunity to rebook for a lower rate.

Beautiful Hotel with Wonderful Staff
While our room was not the luxurious one on the website, the hotel was still very grand and the amenities made the stay very comfortable. The room was adequate with complimentary minibar and robes/slippers. Bathroom very nice with heated floors and towel rack. Beds were luxuriously comfortable and while the room had no view, it had two large windows and plenty of surfaces to set things. Overall, very pleased.

Perfect location and great staff
Came here just to unwind. The location is right next to the Embankment tube station. It is ideal for heading off to explore London, with Leicester Square, Covent Garden, Trafalgar Square and much more, all within a 5-10 minute walk. We had a wonderful river view room with a clear view of the London Eye. Whilst the room furniture could do with a little tlc, It was more than adequate. There were USB charging sockets but they weren't in the most convenient places. The king size bed was so comfortable, that combined with the Egyptian cotton sheets, it was tough to get out of bed. Thank you so very much to both Gerold and Jenny for helping to make our stay special.

Spoil yourself.
Gorgeous hotel in the heart of historic London. Close to the Embankment and so many must see locations. Pervez was an absolute star, welcoming us to the hotel every time we returned and making us feel like family. He is a gem in the crown of the Royal Horseguards. Breakfast is really good and worth including in your reservation.
