Royal Horseguards Hotel - Covent Garden2 Whitehall Court, London, SW1A 2EJ

Gracing the banks of the River Thames, The Royal Horseguards began life as the National Liberal Club, offering its members a sanctuary from the rough-and-tumble of Westminster politics. Designed by Alfred Waterhouse, whose architectural legacy in London includes the Natural History Museum, it played host to some of Britain's greatest writers, thinkers and political leaders: the foundation stone in the cellars was laid by William Gladstone, one of five Club members who went on to serve as Prime Minister.

More than 120 years on, this magnificent 5 star hotel near Charing Cross, Trafalgar Square, The Strand and Covent Garden, has been restored to its full Victorian splendour offering a warm, welcoming and relaxing haven in the very heart of London.

The hotel has a delightful outdoor Terrace that provides a secluded haven to enjoy Afternoon Tea, views over the River Thames and landmarks including the London Eye, with the Victorian hotel's exterior providing a stunning backdrop.  This hotel has been awarded 'The Tea Guild special Award of Excellence 2013' in recognition of its outstanding quality and consistently high standards in Afternoon Tea service.
