Latest 5 reviews of The Royal Horseguards
Absolutely Fabulous!
This is a great hotel, I booked it as a surprise birthday treat for my fiancé and we had the BEST time!
From the original booking with booking.com which was seamless, to the confirmation call with Latoy on reception who arranged an upgraded room for us, to the fantastic Michael on concierge who managed to secure us a last minute booking at the amazing Gaucho Grill in Piccadilly the hotel could not have done any more.
We were graciously greeted, swiftly shown to our amazing room – 312 which overlooked the river Thames and the London Eye. The bathroom had a rain shower and LCD TV in the bath, and everything could be controlled by a touch of a button from our bed, it was perfect.
I would recommend this hotel to Londoners, Mancunians, Brummies, foreigners, everyone! It is situated in a prime location, with everything you could want on your doorstep, whether you prefer to travel by tube which is less then 2mins walk away, or you’d rather jump in a cab you won’t be disappointed as everything that London has to offer is close by and so taxi fares won’t break the bank.
I used the ‘check rates’ feature on Tripadvisor and was able to find an unbeatable price – will definitely be making use of this utility for future bookings!
Lovely hotel in a perfect location for the pubs and theatres
I usually stay at the Marriott County Hall when on business. Since this was full, I thought I would try the Horseguards which is almost directly opposite on the north side of the river. I was not disappointed. Although, it doesn't have a swimming pool like the County Hall, it has a better restaurant, bar and the breakfast is brilliant. The staff are very friendly and in general the hotel has a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. One big plus is that some of the best pubs near the Strand are within staggering distance! I had a room on the 6th floor which overlooked the Thames. The 6th floor is just above the treeline so that the river is fully visible. One negative is the size of the beds, although fine for one person, two would be a bit of a squeeze. I'm not sure whether all the rooms have the same size bed though. All in all, thoroughly enjoyable and definitely recommended,
Fantastic- our new London favourite!
This was our first visit to the Royal Horseguards- but certainly won't be our last.
From the gentleman sweeping the door open for us as we arrived, to the lovely man who checked us in, through to the breakfast staff and concierges, the staff were polite, efficient and charming.
We arrived early, at about 12.30pm and we weren't expecting to be able to go to our room, we thought we would just leave our luggage and go out, but after a 5 minute wait, we were given our keys- and an apology for the delay!
Our double room with view was spotlessly clean, and tastefully decorated. It had a lobby area too so was easily spacious enough for us. We had a stunning view of the Thames and London Eye, even more amazing at night when it was lit up in various colours.
Small touches like the heated bathroom floor, TV in bathroom, mood lighting and dressing gowns and slippers provided made our stay feel special.
The bed linen is very high quality and the bed comfy. The pillows were too soft for my liking but that is purely a personal opinion. The only very minor fault which I can mention is that the speaker in the bathroom didn't work, but I am sure if we had mentioned it they would have tried to fix it.
Breakfast was excellent, considering it was a buffet, both the fried and scrambled eggs were cooked to perfection. The staff were attentive and polite.
Next time we stay in London, it will be at this hotel.
Watch out for currency conversion rip-off
This is a really nice hotel with excellent rooms, staff and location. However, I felt ripped off when the hotel converted my bill from pounds to $USD and failed to mention the fine print of "exchange rate mark-up of 3.5%." This mark-up was not mentioned at check-out and unfortunately I didn't notice it until I arrived back in the states. This is really adding insult to injury with the already poor $USD to pound exchange rate and spoiled my otherwise good impression of this hotel.
Sheer luxury
The hotel is pricey, but quite luxurious. The location is great, it is within walking distance for many historical sites and close to the undergound.
