Staff was very helpful and George the Concierge was exceptional from finding us last minute reservations at a impossible to get in without restaurant to finding a taxi that would accommodate us and all our luggage to take us to the airport.Breakfast was lovely and I am sorry we are unable to review dinner as I am surer it is equally as fantastic !

Tired and tatty at the edges

A tired and tatty hotel, very poor repairs and certainly not worth what they are charging. No one at the door to help with my case up the outside steps despite me having a walking stick. I don't need help, but they seemed to be busy with everyone else... No-one helped me upstairs to my room with my case. No way of turning off the Aircon in the room and I was too tired to call reception. Poor quality repairs in the bathroom, H missing from the tap on the sink, paint all over the edge of the bath. Room 106, and I did show reception as I left. They tried to charge me another £10 on my invoice and when I challenged what it was for, I was told it was a tip for all the staff! This was on top of the service charge I had already paid in the bar for someone to bring me two plates of food! Clearly I declined to pay this given the lack of support as I arrived and no other staff doing anything additional to the jobs they are paid to do. I stay here because it's convenient for the Royal Albert Hall, but it's overpriced for what it is. On the upside, I did get a room upgrade with a lovely balcony, a complimentary bottle of water and milk, the bed was very comfortable and the toiletries are from Penhaligon's, which is always a treat. A plate of sweets and a handwritten note from the hotel manager welcoming me back are a nice touch.

Lovely traditional style hotel, very friendly helpful staff. Not our usual style/design chosen for a hotel but it is lovely if you want archetypical English. Great Breakfast (included), wide choice and all served, no buffet…which is a lovely change but as soon as it got busy it slowed to not receiving a coffee for 20 min wait- then you’re charged service for your free breakfast - a small glitch in an otherwise lovely stay.

Loved our visit to The Gore! We arrived late to the hotel due to delays with our flight and had to quickly change and head out for a meeting upon our arrival. The front desk was welcoming, accommodating, and efficient during the check-in process. The staff and hospitality was truly 5-star and the morning breakfast is an absolute must! I was originally torn on booking the Gore due to the mixed reviews but honestly, the stay was EXCEPTIONAL. The hotel is quiet, but has a lot of charm and character. There are some reviewer that mentioned that the property is dated --please remember that this is to be expected as its a historic hotel and this is the charm of staying in a unique, Victorian property such as this. All the antique furnishings were clean and I loved the traditional bathroom sinks etc. I felt like I was taken back to the 1850's Great Exhibition :) I can only imagine how beautiful the hotel is decorated during the holidays! My bf had meetings at Imperial college so it was the perfect location and walking distance to Hyde Park and Chelsea neighborhood, and close to public transport. The weather was nice so we were able to cut through the park and walk directly to Mayfair. We will definite be back and stay here again, hopefully very soon!
