This was our twelve visit, and we just love the hotel. From the welcome on arrival through to our departure the staff are excellent. The bar is wonderful for people watching and when we get the chance and are only in London for the day the terrace makes the perfect spot for meeting friends for a bite of lunch. The... more

Stayed at the Goring for one night (Wednesday) last week and invited an old "friend" (read into that what you will) for supper. The reception by the staff was about as good as it gets, the service is hard to improve on. Every other customer was smartly dressed - I wasn't. That did not matter. Another review suggests rooms are... more

My husband and I stayed at The Goring to celebrate a family birthday in April; the hotel was recommended by my father who has stayed there in the past. We had high expectations as the hotel had been recommended but were sadly disappointed. The rooms were the biggest disappointment as our room was very small with no view at all.... more

I have not visited London for a long time so I wanted a base to walk around Belgravia, Chelsea and Knightsbridge. Whilst it was a little hard to find (a friend collected me from Heathrow) The Goring is a gem of a Hotel situated in London's dress circle post code of SW1. The hotel is small with around 80 rooms... more

Absolutely LOVED this hotel! We have been to London several times, but this is definitely the hotel at which we will always try to stay. The location is charming, right around the corner from Victoria tube station and an easy ride from there to Heathrow. It is in a neighborhood of charming architecture and easy walking to Hyde Park, Buckingham... more

The Goring is always a treat. Public areas are warm and inviting and the service excellent. Dinner for 3 in the Dining Room simply superb. My Beef Wellington was 10/10. My only slight criticism is that the bedrooms are beginning to look a little tired and perhaps a slow programme of refurbishment might be necessary now. Overall though no complaints... more

We stayed at the Goring on our honeymoon for seven days over Christmas, and can't say enough about this beautiful hotel. We had very high expectations and the Goring did not disappoint. Our room was very comfortable and luxurious, as one would expect in a five star. The bed is indeed heavenly as many other reviews have mentioned, and our... more

Not nearly as exemplary as the other reviewers made it out to be. I was very disappointed in what I got for the outrageous amount I paid. Good points: Good location right behind Buckingham Palace. Easy walk to Victoria subway station. Many very good places to eat in the area. (Volt & Bumbles are two) The room was quiet with... more
