The Goring

The Goring

London, The UK

This quintessentially British hotel provides attentive service and high quality dining in the heart of stylish Belgravia. The hotel has been owned by the Goring family since the early 1900s and has been awarded a Royal Warrant by the Queen.

The Goring has 69 rooms, but its characterful decor and thoughtful individual touches create the atmosphere of a much smaller property. Vibrant tones and feature wallpaper combined with marble floors and silk paneled walls establish an eclectic yet elegant style in the public areas, while the bedrooms retain a classic English design.

The Michelin-starred Dining Room restaurant offers superb fine dining using local ingredients while the bar and lounge serves a casual lunch menu and afternoon tea.

OUR OPINION:

The beautiful but quirky decor makes The Goring stand out and we love sitting outside in the heart of London yet surrounded by shrubs, trees and pretty fairy lights.

OUR RATING: Deluxe

All rooms feature complimentary Wi-Fi and a large, marble bathroom, some with separate walk-in showers. Lights can be either dimmed or intensified by a touch-screen control panel on the wall, which also controls the air-conditioning. Splendid room types and above overlook The Goring’s private garden. Suites have their own dedicated footman to provide butler service.
