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.

Superb front desk service from the young man on duty late evening of 7 September. He couldn't have been more helpful.

The Royal Horsegards is a GEM! It was great before, but the relatively new ownership has clearly invested in even more service oriented staff and training. The location is simply unbeatable, and the price is very competitive for a 4-5 star experience. You MUST buy the breakfast with your booking - it is unbelieveably good, consistent, and very necessary if you are going to be trekking around London ever day.

Beautiful terrace. Our server, Asa, made it a very pleasurable experience. Can’t wait to come back.
