Our stay at the Gore was absolutely wonderful, the rooms were exactly as described, the staff very helpful and the bar really eccentric
Remember lots of people come to the bar after shows, so make sure you book a table with reception if you want to stay late!
Wonderful staff in a great location , rooms spacious and clean. underground close bye and ideal for visiting Royal Albert hall . Will definitely stay here again.
This had to have been one of the most beautiful places that I've stayed period the area of round is very calm and within walking distance to so many things such as Kensington Park, Prince Albert Memorial, Harrod's, museums and much more.
We stayed one night at the end of our London girls' trip. What a delight! It's a beautiful boutique hotel with a lot of history. Our room was large and comfortable and the amenities were wonderful. The bar is lovely and it was a treat to be there the evening of the Olivier Awards! Would highly recommend. Also loved the location on a beautiful street right off Kensington Park.
We loved the warm welcome, the comfortable common areas, the wonderful bed and linens. Very small room. The bathroom and carpet in the room really needs a refresh - something that is apparently planned for the next year. All in all I would go back. The location was perfect, walkable, quiet, a few steps from Kensington Gardens.

I loved my stay at the Gore. The location was perfect, close to restaurants and the tube but out of the hustle and bustle of downtown. The rooms are quaint, clean and met all my needs. The staff was always helpful and present. I would definitely stay here on a return visit to London

Truly, one of the best hotels in London. The rooms are so perfectly chic. The staff is amazing. The food and bar downstairs is so good and it’s in a great location.
Pleasantly surprised with the upgrade as we are previous customers don't take it for granted. Fantastic experience and great staff as always. Looking forward to our next stay.

Lovely staff, beautiful hotel, would definitely stay again!
Many things stood out.
The check in staff were really friendly. I loved that they showed us to our room and told us where everything was. We have never had that in any hotel. The room itself was spotlessly clean. The food in the restaurant was fabulous. The service was also excellent.

Breakfast was outstanding left for the day completely full up. The staff were friendly helpful and made the say wonderful. Bar staff superb. Wonderful hotel 10/10
This is a beautiful hotel, but what defines it is its service. Like anything of good quality in this world it comes down to care and attention, and The Gore does this very well.
Thank you to your reception team, night manager, bar staff, restaurant manager in the morning and hotel manager, each of you made this stay... exceptional.
