I have always loved this hotel for tea and drinks but as a Londoner I have never previously been lucky enough to stay Perfect treat in a unique quintessentially English family hotel for my birthday in the heart of Victoria. The service and all the staff are amazing, professional, unobtrusive when needed, but friendly and full of advice when needed. Room was upgraded and well appointed with a lovely surprise of champagne and fruit in the room for my celebrations. Breakfast was lovely and the bar staff as always attentive and knowledgeable Only disappointment was never managing to get a table in the beautiful garden! The Goring is definitely still my favourite hotel in London

We were singularly underwhelmed by the service at the Goring. The gentlemen on reception when we arrived was unwelcoming and monosyllabic. The breakfast service was like something out of Fawlty Towers. Over an hour to receive your breakfast which was cold! And it cost over £150 for the breakfasts over the two days we were there. We will not be returning.

Exceptional as always

A truly exceptional trip from start to finish. This is our third time staying at the Goring (and certainly not our last) and the experience has never failed to leave us impressed and already planning our next stay. The staff are truly wonderful, effortlessly putting you at ease, and making you feel as though you are the only guest at the hotel. The food is wonderful, whether you opt for the dining room, or the bar, you are in for a great evening. The rooms are beautiful, we have stayed in a variety of different rooms and each has been impressively and exqusitely decorated. Thank you again for a wonderful trip and we look forward to coming again soon!

We were put in a very nice room on the 1st floor overlooking the hotel food delivery space. Every morning at 4:30, the trucks arrived making a terrible noise and waking us up. The various noise remained for the next 2 hours. It happened for 2 nights in a row, which is totally unacceptable for the level of this hotel. Upon checking in I asked for a quiet room on a high floor, but instead was offered this room or an upgrade for even more money, which I refused. No matter the quality of the room, the friendliness of the staff, the whole experience was spoiled.
