Very good staff and food. “Delux” room was smaller than picture. But very comfortable. Big tv too. Glad I didn’t pay for a garden view as it is actually a public garden. Although beautiful, very noisey with drunk teenagers on a Saturday night.

Nice hotel. Room was lovely. Breakfast on day one would have been better with more staff being available as too many guests for the staff.

We had a wonderful experience at the Royal Horseguards Hotel. The location is amazing, and the property is beautiful. Our "river view" room did not disappoint, with the best view of the London Eye from anywhere in the city. We were close to everything, so were able to pop back to the hotel for breaks during the day. The staff was also very nice and helpful.

The hotel is beautiful as it is also a historic building, the service of everyone was impeccable, helpful and so friendly. The rooms are very roomy and comfortable (we got a river view and what a view!), for the international travelers it has dual voltage outlets! It’s close by a lot of activities and landmarks and so easy to get a taxi, an uber or an uber boat! Right across the street by the embankment dock. I’d recommend it over and over for sure.
