Perfection

We had an amazing 5 night stay. Beautiful location on a pretty quiet street for London. The staff well trained, enthusiastic, kind and eager to help in any way they can. The room was absolutely lovely, with wonderful touches to make us comfortable and at home. The beds and linens are luxurious and comfortable and we seldom heard any sounds outside our room.

The Gore Hotel is convenient to many locations, and the staff is incredibly helpful. Rooms are a little on the smaller side, but that's London. It would have been nice to have four bath towels rather than two, but that's a minor issue. We had a great stay!

Staying at the Gore is like stepping back in time. The hotel is beautiful with a warm inviting bar, charming breakfast room and a comfortable library. The staff go the extra mile to make guests feel welcome. We especially appreciated Emma’s greetings at breakfast and Giorgio and Christian’s help at the concierge desk. The breakfast at the Gore is top notch and we enjoyed the freshly squeezed orange juice as well as many other breakfast options. The hotel has an interesting history with a connection to Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones. Great location in a quiet neighborhood near Kensington Park and Royal Albert Hall!

Nice enough hotel with friendly, helpful staff and classy period decor. Room was a bit small and old-fashioned however and had a few small maintenance issues. Main window was difficult to close as bolts were broken which was a problem as the room was immediately above a very noisy bar. Noise continued until 1.00am when we were finally able to sleep. Hotel was close to Kensington Gardens and the Albert Hall.

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.
