The Royal Horseguards

Très bel hotel, service excellent. Le restaurent de l'hotel est à essayer .... C'est vraiment une très bonne table.

Seul problème de ma chambre deluxe double, c'est qu'il n'y avait pas de fenêtre qui donnait sur l'extérieure. La seule fenêtre de la chambre donnait sur un puits de lumière. Et comme j'étais au premier étage, la lumière du jour était quasiment inexistante. Mais à part cela c'était très bel hotel.

Chambre luxueuse, vue sur la tamise, personnel impeccable

Attente dans le hall avant que la chambre ne soit prête

chambre avec vue spacieuse avec wifi inclus dans le prix + petit déjeuner très copieux (buffet varié) + localisation parfaite + vue incontournable

Stayed in a king suite . View from the room was fantastic and the absolutely stunning at night. The room was spacious and comfortable with very nicely appointed furniture and bed. The bathroom with the heated floor was very nice surprise. Doorman was wonderfully welcoming, the bellboys were quick and helpful and the concierge was professional and always pleasant and patient.

I asked for an early check in which wasn't possible and I understood this. However, when I returned at the regular check in time, the receptionist without checking with anyone, insisted the room still wasn't ready. Had to ask for the manager, who after checking with housekeeping, found the room was ready. Receptionist was not happy at being contradicted and was less than pleasant for the rest of the check-in process. Not offered breakfast discount on check-in so would have paid substantially more if I hadn't found out about the discount by accident. Stayed two nights. Mini-fridge was not restocked the second day. Took 45 minutes to get a bucket of ice and then felt guilty for asking for it when we found out the poor guy doing room service was the only one on duty. Seems like the hotel needs to amp up the staff numbers to provide the five star service you're paying for.

Weekend away

Reception staff were really good, consierge was equally as good. Nice welcome, and fire in lobby. A lady in the restaurant for breakfast was very good, I think her name was Pam.

Breakfast was really not great, firstly the lady who seated us, asked if we wanted coffee and toast, then none arrived had to ask again for it, same with ordering some porridge it came 15 minutes later, but was like gruel, quite surprised that a 5 star hotel kitchen can't make porridge. Overall a little bit too structured and formal, but lacked professionalism in the restaurant.

rooms spacious and very clean. staff very helpful and friendly. well situated for site seeing and close commuting facilities to explore the rest of london.

no spa facilities that i was made aware of.

The welcome and service of all the staff. Everyone especially the Hungarian gentleman bent over backwards to make an extra effort every single time I approached them. More likely they approached me quicker, to help with my pushchair and baby. They were polite and fantastic. Your real asset!!

The towels had an awful smell (I have a sensitive nose). My room was no 847. When I enetered the room I could smell the pigeons in fact I looked at the window sill and sure enough there was pigeon poo - and the windows hadn't been cleaned in some time? There was no child quilt / blanket provided with the cot (and, although the cot was provided, I had to ask for this to be made). The staff could be taught level one english.

Everyone is polite and not overbearing. The room although we felt is was quite small it was peaceful and very clean.

The only point was a dirty wet cloth left on the wardrobe shelve which was a little unpleasant,

good location, good service
