I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The location was great, just a few blocks away from various sights, theaters, and restaurants. The room was very nice, although the toilet had some flushing issues. The staff was polite and courteous, always willing to assist. The only downside was being woken up early in the morning. Overall, a good experience with a few minor inconveniences.
The hotel has a prime spot along the Thames, offering mesmerizing views of the river's tides. While check-in wasn't smooth at 3 pm, the staff and facilities inside were top-notch. The location is superb for exploring central London's major sights, although there were minor disruptions during the stay.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room had some issues like noisy equipment outside the window and a moldy shower, but the service was top-notch. The location was great for my activities, but the dining experience left much to be desired.
The hotel has very well-furnished and spacious rooms, with a nice touch of tea and biscuits, but they were slightly small. The service was efficient and friendly overall, though there were instances of misunderstanding. The location is perfect for visiting attractions and enjoying facilities like the terrace and restaurant. The dining experience was a triumph of taste but somewhat disorganized. The facilities are well-equipped.
The room was smaller and noisier than expected, but the hotel's central location in London was fantastic. The dining experience was great overall, and the hotel offered good facilities.
I loved the spacious room with a lovely big bathroom, though it lacked natural light. The service was top-notch with a few hiccups but quickly resolved. The hotel's location is unbeatable in the heart of Westminster. Dining was a mix of perfect and chaotic experiences. Overall, a great stay with some minor downsides.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room had a superb view of the London Eye, perfect for watching fireworks, but it was disappointing with stained lampshades, peeling paint, and a lackluster bathroom. The service was outstanding, with extremely friendly and helpful staff. The location was fantastic, central to everything I wanted to see and do. The dining options were expensive but plentiful and tasty.
The hotel rooms were large and comfortable, offering a good English breakfast, which exceeded my expectations. However, there were some maintenance issues like a broken sink tap and peeling paint above the shower. Despite these issues, the rooms were still better than other 5-star experiences I've had in London.
The hotel offered a Deluxe room with a 'city view'; while the view was limited, the room itself was lovely, clean, and modern. The staff, especially the doormen, were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the stay delightful. The service was consistently warm, friendly, and helpful, with employees going above and beyond. Its location near Embankment Place and the Thames was superb for accessing attractions like Trafalgar Square and historic landmarks. The dining experience, though a bit pricey and lacking finesse in breakfast, did not overshadow the overall positive impression of the stay.
Staying at The Royal Horseguards was a delightful experience overall. The location is absolutely perfect, offering stunning riverside views and easy access to iconic spots in London. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff and thoughtful amenities. On the downside, the room I stayed in was initially cold, and the heating system was a bit tricky to figure out. Despite this, the unique turret room with breathtaking views made up for it.
The hotel has a wonderful location, right across from the South Bank and just two minutes from Embankment, making it very convenient for exploring the main sites like London Eye and Westminster. The rooms, although with some issues like overcharging for breakfasts, are equipped with fantastic underfloor heating in the bathrooms. The service stands out positively with friendly evening room attendants and great breakfast choices. However, there are some disappointments like the dining experience and the lack of a variety of vegan options. Overall, the location is fantastic, the service is very good, but improvements could be made in the dining offerings.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel as the rooms were not available due to a possible maintenance issue, but the ones available were spacious with a queen bed and a nice added touch of a small TV screen in the bathroom. The view overlooking the river was quite pleasant.
The hotel offers rooms with beautiful views, although they are smaller than average for the area. Coming back after a long day to a warm welcome and the chance to slip into a nice hot bath adds a nice touch to the experience. The service is exceptional, with a very helpful and clean environment. Hortense at the bar is not only excellent at making drinks but also a perfect host. The location is fantastic for exploring major London attractions, and the dining experience, while good, could benefit from more vegan options. The facilities are well-kept, making for a comfortable stay.
