Dining
- Equus Bar
- As part of our refurbishment, we've completely transformed our bar and lounge area to create the new Equus Bar. With its eclectic fabrics and decor, it recreates the 'gentlemen's club' atmosphere of the hotel's past, and celebrates our rich history with a range of contemporary cocktails named after famous former guests, including the George Bernard Shaw, Lord Kitchener, Winston Churchill and William Gladstone. The Equus Bar menu also includes an extensive selection of non-alcoholic drinks, including our Equus Cola, home-made to a secret recipe, traditional fresh Lemonade, Ginger Beer, Lychee Lemonade and Green Tea Cooler. The bar also serves bar food and light meals
- One Twenty One Two
- For almost 80 years, The Royal Horseguards had the Metropolitan Police as neighbours. They moved to new headquarters in 1967, but we've never forgotten them - or their famous telephone number, Whitehall 1212, which gives our One Twenty One Two Restaurant its name. Winner of two coveted AA Rosette awards for culinary excellence, One Twenty One Two attracts discriminating diners from around the world. With its inviting piano bar, innovative menus, fine wines and exemplary service, it represents the very best in contemporary dining. For smaller parties, we have the adjoining Terrace Room, which provides delightful views over the Thames.
- The Terrace
- Enjoy a drink or a meal on our outdoor Terrace, with the extravagant exterior of The Royal Horseguards - inspired, it's said, by the chateaux of France - providing a stunning backdrop for your mid-morning snack or your Champagne Afternoon Tea.
- The Lounge
- The Lounge at The Royal Horseguards serves tea and coffee all day, as well as light meals including our famous High Tea in the afternoon. An ideal stopping-off point at any time of day.

Excellent
This hotel was great. It is central to almost everything. A fifteen minute walk to Buckingham Palace. Right next to the tube station. The staff were excellent, and very helpful with loads of information. A great place to stay in London.

Stayed in better
Attention to detail poor!
There were no Bath robes or shower caps in the room as specified. There were stains on the carpet. No teaspons with the tea and coffee making equipment. Had to pay a £ 20.00 supplement for a King size bed in a £ 285.00 a night executive room. Poor Poor show.

room needs air conditioning--great location
Great location on the underground Embangment station and close to many areas interest--one can easily walk. Breakfast overpriced and room needs air conditioning, but our floor is to be remodeled next year. Will stay again.

Our stay at the Royal Horsegaurds was pleasent and the Hotel is very well maintaioned and very well located. It is 1 block to a tube stop and walking distance to Buckingham Palace (3/4 of a mile) and close to the London attractions The hotel is also located in a safe neighborhoood. You can exchange money on site and the room was standard for a European room in size and had all the usuall amenities including mini bar I would stay there again and recommend it to a friend

Auch für allein Reisende Ideal
3 Tage Weihnachts-Shopping London wurden durch "The Royal Horseguards" komfortabl und sehr angenehm umrandet. Zimmer, Komfort, Personal und Dienstleistungen wurden absolut übertroffen. Kann ich jederzeit empfehlen (auch für zwei Personen). Die Lage ist hervorragen und man ist innert Kürze in allen Teilen der City.
