The restaurant staff were not very competent (struggled to get me a cup of tea or even a seat when there were dozens of empty tables), but the doormen were attentive and the lobby pleasant and the location excellent. The room was small and dark but clean.

First time London visit - great location!

Our stay at the Royal Horseguards was lovely! The hotel is well managed and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. We did have to wait a small while because our room was not available but an alternative room (perhaps slightly nicer) was offered. The location was great - walking distance to many key attractions. The neighborhood was nice. We would definitely stay again!
