This is a beautiful hotel, but what defines it is its service. Like anything of good quality in this world it comes down to care and attention, and The Gore does this very well. Thank you to your reception team, night manager, bar staff, restaurant manager in the morning and hotel manager, each of you made this stay... exceptional.

Fantastic stay at the Gore, truly premium property with excellent service, beautiful amenities in a safe and walkable location. Rooms are very well appointed and beds are comfortable, complimentary coffee and tea as well as fresh milk for your use. Very clean, excellent service from all staff. I had coffee in the library and dined in the bar, delicious and excellent service. I was also shown the area where the Rolling Stones had their famous pie fight, very cool to see and I appreciated the time taken to show me the space. Fantastic location, 10 minute walk to the tube and grocery store, across from Royal Albert Hall, a 10 minute walk to V&A, very close to Hyde Park (one street over) for a run or to stroll to Kensington Palace. Appreciate the attention to detail and attentiveness of the staff, truly a premium experience.
