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.

Excellent hotel, great service, brilliant location
We stayed for one night a t he Royal Horseguards and everything was first class, from the welcome as we walked in to check out the next day. We had afternoon tea in the Green Room which was lovely. Breakfast was excellent. The Equus bar was a great place to sit and relax. The location is so good. Right by the Embankement and so central. We even walked to the theatre in the evening.

Always a great stay !
This our ‘go to’ hotel when visiting London and it never fails to deliver. We were greeted with a very warm welcome and a handshake by Perez on the door who insisted on taking our bags into the lobby. We were quickly booked in by the very efficient and friendly staff on reception and were delighted to be offered an upgrade at no extra cost. The room was lovely (312) with a garden view, a very comfortable king size bed and very spacious overall.My only criticism is that surprisingly, it did not contain any USB ports , so pack a plug adaptor or 2. I’m sure other rooms we’ve stayed in at the hotel have had them. The hotel facilities are excellent with great food and drink available. The restaurant never seems crowded and the breakfast buffet is especially good. The hotel is perfectly placed for sightseeing and despite being right on the Embankment is very quiet ensuring a good night’s sleep.

Excellent location and a beautiful hotel
I stayed for a long weekend and was really pleased with my choice. Perfectly located for a nearby tube station but also so close to all the big tourist spots. Staff were friendly and helpful and I felt completely comfortable staying here.
