Hotels near The Mall

"Soooo tiny. I don’t realize how small it was. Amazing breakfast and location "

"Great location! Very central to everything you want to see in London! 5 minute walk to the heart of Covent Garden. The rooms are very small, but they are enough for a single traveler making the value for the location a good one. I would like to see them add a few coat hooks on the walls and the room would be perfect. There is very minimal space to put any suitcases or hang cloths. That is probably the only downfall of this hotel. All in all, the value for this hotel is there and I would recommend it for any single traveler. "

"Easy check in and out. Clean room."

"Ideal location to tour the sites. Hotel staff are very efficient and quick to serve. It’s our hotel of choice for London. "

"What can we say? Another fantastic trip and stay. Right from the beginning, we felt welcome and comfortable; nothing was too much trouble for the team. All the staff were incredibly helpful and polite throughout our visit. ​This is the "go-to" for my son every time we visit London. At just 8 years old, he has already decided he only wants to stay here—and I totally agree! Thank you so much for everything; we already look forward to our next visit soon."

"We love the Royal Horseguards Hotel. Have stayed here several times. The price point reflects its position as a full-service property in a prime location, with a restaurant, bar & tea room. We were surprised by the worn condition of the elevators and mid-tier rooms during our March 2026 stay. More off-putting was an aggressive push to upgrade room at check-in — the hotel manager appeared in person to inform us that only two upgraded rooms remained so they “needed” the revenue & could not comp those rooms to returning guests. That kind of hard sell is at odds with the caliber of hotel this aims to be, and left us wondering whether the property is in decline. That said, the staff is genuinely delightful. The rooms were immaculately clean, with plenty of large fluffy towels and magnifying mirror in the bathroom. The small touches throughout speak to the quality of service as well: we consistently find complimentary water & light refreshments in the refrigerator upon arrival — a simple gesture, but one that sets a welcoming tone and reflects genuine attention to the guest experience. The in room coffee/tea service has a Nespresso and milk. The breakfast is excellent and worth adding on— the buffet is luscious, but there’s more to offer à la carte if you can secure the attention of a waitstaff person. If your schedule allows a full English tea, or just a cream tea in the lounge: we find it a fun highlight and do recommend it. These strengths are the reason we keep returning."

"All around fabulous place to stay!"

"Of the dozens of hotels I have stayed in during the last five years, the St James Taj hotel is the best. The level of professionalism is unsurpassed and the courtesy of the staff is remarkable."

"Amazing stay for our Anniversary every was 5 Star "
