The Royal Horseguards

Planning a trip to London? 5 star hotel in a great location, less than 1/2 the price of 2 5 stars across the street!!!! Rooms are very comfortable, large, plenty of room in bathrooms (ours had a tub and a shower), with beautiful views of a park and the Thames. A 5 minute walk to Trafalgar Square to catch hop on hop off buses, 10 minute walk to Piccadilly where there are more restaurants that you can even imagine, and the concierge is awesome - Tell Javier we sent you and ask for a "secret" tour of the hotel. You will not be disappointed!

A very imposing structure, but definitely a must stay! The concierge is wonderful and helpful! Located within walking distance of many of London's best things to see!

Excellent hotel, well located, with good services. The room was quiet and the breakfast was excellent.

Loved the history, location, knowledgeable staff of this hotel. Will definitely be recommending and returning in the future.

Five stars. The Royal Guardsman is one of the best hotels we've stayed at, period. Steps from the Thames, Trafalgar Square, Westminster Abbey, and Buckingham Palace, in a building where Churchill once had an office, the history and location alone are worth it. Our flight landed at 6:30 in the morning, hours before check in, and while every other hotel wanted to charge us to hold our bags, this place said drop them off, go enjoy the city, and we'll bring them up the moment your room is ready. They did. Small thing, but it set the tone. The room came with a Nespresso machine that made some of the best coffee my wife's had, a complimentary mini bar restocked daily with soda, sparkling water, chocolate, and popcorn, heated towel racks, heated bathroom floors, and a rain shower that feels like a spa. But the real story here is the people. Perez and Million at the concierge and door are two of the most genuinely warm, hustling, attentive people we've ever encountered at a hotel, they make every guest feel like the only guest. Rupam and Ahmed carried eight suitcases up to a room together with more energy and friendliness than should be legal. And Humaija at the front desk does not just do her job, she clearly loves it, and it shows in every single interaction, anticipating what you need before you know you need it. This isn't just a hotel, it's a team that eliminates every headache before it happens. We'll be back.
