About The Royal Horseguards Hotel
One Whitehall Place sits within The Royal Horseguards Hotel on Victoria Embankment in central London, where couples can hold civil ceremonies in any of four licensed rooms within a 19th-century Victorian building. The architecture includes ornate sculptured ceilings, a grand marble staircase and chandeliers, with views over the River Thames and the London Eye framing parts of the interior.
Ceremonies and receptions take place in historic spaces linked to the hotel’s hospitality offer. After formal proceedings, couples and their guests can remain onsite in the hotel’s suites and rooms, combining celebration and overnight stay. Across the day there are catering options drawn from the hotel’s range of British cuisine, with the possibility of menu tastings ahead of the wedding. The hotel itself occupies a riverside position in Westminster, with London’s transport connections within walking distance, and the public areas and event rooms reflect the property’s place beside Embankment and the city’s skyline.
