They couldn’t have been lovelier. From signing in to finding a beautiful bottle of Prosecco in our room and a note from The Hotel because it was my birthday so the comfort of our beautiful room, the fluffiness of our bed and the loveliness of the staff. We had dinner at the restaurant twice and one breakfast and we took someone to high tea at 4 PM in the library. It was exquisite. For the price, it was absolutely perfect. Location was wonderful and we were just around the corner from the Prince Albert Museum and very close to the Museum of Natural History. Love love, love!

Perfection

We had an amazing 5 night stay. Beautiful location on a pretty quiet street for London. The staff well trained, enthusiastic, kind and eager to help in any way they can. The room was absolutely lovely, with wonderful touches to make us comfortable and at home. The beds and linens are luxurious and comfortable and we seldom heard any sounds outside our room.

The Gore Hotel is convenient to many locations, and the staff is incredibly helpful. Rooms are a little on the smaller side, but that's London. It would have been nice to have four bath towels rather than two, but that's a minor issue. We had a great stay!

Staying at the Gore is like stepping back in time. The hotel is beautiful with a warm inviting bar, charming breakfast room and a comfortable library. The staff go the extra mile to make guests feel welcome. We especially appreciated Emma’s greetings at breakfast and Giorgio and Christian’s help at the concierge desk. The breakfast at the Gore is top notch and we enjoyed the freshly squeezed orange juice as well as many other breakfast options. The hotel has an interesting history with a connection to Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones. Great location in a quiet neighborhood near Kensington Park and Royal Albert Hall!

Nice enough hotel with friendly, helpful staff and classy period decor. Room was a bit small and old-fashioned however and had a few small maintenance issues. Main window was difficult to close as bolts were broken which was a problem as the room was immediately above a very noisy bar. Noise continued until 1.00am when we were finally able to sleep. Hotel was close to Kensington Gardens and the Albert Hall.
