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.

With a rich history the bar is a wonderful place to relax. The location is perfect for access to the Albert hall. Room lovely but we would have preferred a king size bed. Next time we will get one!! The breakfast … full English for me, was delicious. Nothing to fault at all. An enjoyable stay.

Cosy traditional British hotel

A real treat. I have always wanted to stay at The Gore and I was not disappointed. From check-in to check-out the experience was fabulous. Lovely, down-to-earth & efficient staff. Hotel was not just clean but luxurious while staying cosy and comfortable with a very traditional British vibe. We will certainly be returning on my next work trip.

Left feeling like a princess

We had an amazing experience at The Gore London. The staff were all amazing and treated us with kindness and respect. We were very impressed by the service on many occasions through the day & night we were there. First of all we were able to check in a little early, they even gave us a room upgrade with a bottle of chilled Prosecco waiting for us in the room. We had forgotten our phone chargers at home and they were kind enough to bring one up to our room, twice actually since we didn’t specify which we needed and at first it was the wrong type. We then ordered some food to the hotel from just eat and they kindly accepted our order at reception and even brought us a tray, plates & cutlery to eat with. All of this without even being asked or expected of them. The room was nice and clean, the bed was super comfortable and the bedding was so so soft, it actually felt like sleeping on a cloud. I am super super impressed and left the hotel feeling like a princess. That’s always a good thing, and makes me want to come back again and again.

Noisy heating = sleepless nights

We stayed 2 nights; sleeping in 2 different rooms on different floors and still heard heating droning on and off waking us up several times each night. You could even hear it droning in the restaurant. Probably just a pump needing fixing and a real shame as the hotel is lovely and only 3 mins walk from the Royal Albert Hall. The bar is cosy and the pre-show meal was speedily served and very nice.

Another good stay

Another good stay, we originally started staying here for the location (very close to the Albert Hall) but now choose this when we come to London Great friendly service, and the hotel has a lot of character - its not a modern hotel so expect a few quirks and small rooms, but the decor is nice and fitting with the period Room was hot this time, but we could open a window to get some fresh air.

Trading in position alone

Check in fine, polite and friendly. Room supposed to be best in the hotel was indeed unique, but the additional bed was made up and the room was cold. Food in the bar took an ages to arrive, we had to ask where it was, and when it did come it was lukewarm. When we arrived back at the hotel after attending the Christmas carol concert at the Royal Albert Hall, the staff member who we asked if our pre-booked table was ready rather dismissively shrugged his shoulders and said "it might ready"! Not sure they have their priorities right when it comes to hotel guests!! Also, be prepared for a hefty service charge on top of the room rate, robbery and I'm still not sure what it was for or why we even paid it. We'd only ever book here again, if we were short of options
