Our stay at the Gore was so disappointing. This was my second visit and while the property is extremely charming and the location was super, the stay was a true disappointment due to the complete indifference (bordering on rude) of the staff at reception and the evening bar team. The exception was the lovely woman server in the bar in the afternoon - perhaps she showed up at the wrong hotel because she was what one would expect. The more serious issue was the night/early am reception clerk who tried to convince us to take a taxi or uber to LGW instead of a taxi to Victoria for Gatwick Express. He said it would be 120 GBP, less than our taxi and Gatwick Express. We declined and our total cost was 40 GBP for two. We were lucky we travel frequently, but others would have been swindled. What a dreadful man and sad that the other employees are so disengaged.

Fabulous!

Our second stay at The Gore and it does not disappoint. The staff are all excellent especially George. The room was lovely, all amenities catered for. Special touches of chocolates, birthday cake & personal note from the hotel manager made the stay better. After our trip to the Royal Albert Hall we stopped into the bar, the service could have been better, we were ignored for a while & we’re not given the same attention as other guests with coasters for our drinks and napkins for our food. Breakfast was fabulous, service was exemplary, credit to the lady in charge who had it all organised. The food was lovely, hot & delicious. We will be returning to this lovely hotel, thank you.

Great location for this grand dame of a hotel. You can tell she is elegant, however now her decor is tired and needs upgrading in particular in the bedrooms. Once any refurb is done, then this hotel will be worth the prices they want. This is a historic place to stay. This company will try and charge you a discretionary service charge when you check out. It's in the small print. You need to tell them to take it off your bill if you don't want it. I find it underhanded and unctuous. Other than that, this hotel is well-placed for the park or the RAH.

Old world charm was a nice change

A very comfortable stay at The Gore within walking distance of Knightsbridge, High Street Kensington and Gloucester Road stations. We enjoyed the old world charm and Victorian vibe, which made a change from modern hotel rooms. Very well equipped and cosy room. Staff were excellent and made us feel valued as guests. Didn’t have time to try the restaurant but will make a reservation next time. Only thing to work on is breakfast. The full English was delicious but other options were on the small side and the omelette was meagre with shavings of ham and mushroom. Otherwise, I look forward to booking again.

A fabulous stay here. Staff extremely helpful with everything. Room was very traditional. Only thing that would have improved things was a good coffee machine that seems to be the norm in many hotels now. The gore had just a kettle (with the world’s shortest chord) and terrible sachet coffee. We were disappointed that the much heralded restaurant was closed on Mondays….which was our main day of the stay…this hadn’t been pointed out on booking. The bar however is still extremely cosy….highly recommended if very pricey. (But this is Kensington). Overall would stay again. Easy 10 minute walk to to all museums and 5 mins to Albert hall so ideal for a show.
