building has stunning views of the
Thames and Londons iconic landmarks
including; The London Eye, Big Ben
and The Houses of Parliament.

History

In March 1884, property speculator


Jonathan Carr obtained a 95-year lease
on a piece of land overlooking the
Victoria Embankment. The site was in
a prime position, well within walking
distance of the numerous government
buildings at Whitehall and had unrivalled
views across the river Thames.

At the time he acquired the land, Carr was one of Londons most successful developers
but his plans for Whitehall were to eclipse anything he had done before. Carr envisaged
creating a monumental apartment block, the likes of which London had never seen
before. Built in the French Renaissance style and reaching a height of 100ft, the enormous
edifice would run 600ft along the edge of the Embankment Gardens, creating an
elegant new focal point for this part of the Thames vista. Inside, enormous apartments
would provide graceful residences for the cream of society. The extraordinary building
would be named Whitehall Court, in which One Horse Guards resides today.

Architecture &
Sophistication

With high, ornate ceilings and large windows, the rooms at


One Horse Guards add an impressive backdrop for any type
of meeting. Once guests have arrived at the striking reception
area they will be escorted to either The Whitehall Suite
situated on the ground floor, or upstairs to The Jubilee Suite.
