Small but well-appointed room (we had a twin room), great staff. It’s an old building, so some of the fixtures didn’t work, but they addressed this promptly.

The Gore has A+ EXCEPTIONAL staff, amazingly comfortable beds, fine linens & everything one could need in a room! There were extra little touches from the management and staff that made me feel like a VIP even though I booked a regular room. It felt as if I was a guest at someone’s beautiful home. Will definitely stay here again when back in London.

A very big thank you to the staff for their amazing service. They truly made my group feel like royalty! The rooms are super comfortable, the showers hot, the common areas very welcoming & the dining five star. It feels like you’re staying in your own little palace right in the heart of London.

Amazing staff who are warm, professional and go the extra mile to ensure an exceptional stay. The beds are very comfortable and the fine linens are divine. The rooms are appointed with every needed amenity. The only “negative” (if I’m being nit-picky) is that the shower faucets are a bit sticky and hard to turn. The Gore is phenomenal and I look forward to future stays. Kudos to the management and staff!

My wife and I had a superb three night stay. Staff are so helpful, friendly and efficient. Just the right balance without being intrusive at all. The hotel itself has a really nice vibe/ambience and the cocktail bar and restaurant have a great selection of drinks and food. We enjoyed both more than once in our stay. Breakfast is super, cooked to order, served and available until 10.30, which is a treat in London. If your looking for somewhere special, without breaking the bank, this is a great hotel and offers excellent value for London. You may even spot a celeb or two in the bar while you're staying, we spotted a few! A very enjoyable stay, close to museums, RAH, Hyde Park etc. We will definitley return.

I was disappointed with the £15 accommodation service charge and £7 breakfast service charge added to our bill when we had paid for both upfront with Hotels.com. I went back through the booking process and these were not mentioned. Otherwise good service, a good bar and a good breakfast.

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.
