From the moment we arrived my daughter and I felt welcomed. Thought it might be a little haughty - upper crust, but we were pleasantly surprised.  …

The Goring Hotel is incredible. The staff goes above and beyond. Months before my trip Sean emailed me with all of my questions and always offered his help. The breakfast each morning was delicious. Again, the staff made my experience perfect. The hotel is situated perfectly in London. I am looking forward to my next visit.The afternoon tea is wonderful!

Enjoyed a wonderful evening in the Goring Hotel Bar with impeccable service from bartender Josh. Classy setting, beautiful decor, historic atmosphere and true British ambience. Josh makes a truly authentic "Queen's Cocktail," favorite of Queen Eliz II. Bar menu had delicious food selections to offer, as well. Live music and not too loud. FIVE STARS all around.

Charming luxury in the heart of London. The Goring achieves the almost impossible by melding exquisite luxury with humour, approachability, and a family atmosphere. While some high end establishments can leave one feeling admiration rather than true comfort, The Goring embraces you with its quirkiness and homely charm. The service is exemplary without ever being smothering and the food ranges all the way from hearty to delicate, depending on your whim. The dining room has been redecorated since my wife and I's last visit, and is worth the price of admission alone having been absolutely transformed. Easily the best hotel in London.

I was only there for the Tea Service.It was a lovely experience. I'm from the US and very unfamiliar with the Afternoon Tea service. The staff was so gracious and didn't belittle me or create a tense situation. They were attentive and kind and I absolutely intend on coming back when I make my trip back to the UK next year.

The Goring Hotel is a 5-Star Hotel with fabulous intimate service. Breakfasts are amazing. My wife and I reserved an executive room and we were told that we were upgraded. However our room, although beautifully furnished and comfortable was very small and therefore disappointing. The bathroom was tiny. We expected better, but enjoyed our stay.

We have been using this hotel for numerous years, as we live a few doors away from the Hotel. It was a fabulous hotel, with fantastic staff. What has happened and we’re do I start! After eventually getting a wine list, there was only a choice of three over priced supermarket roses wines on there wine list?. All the old staff had gone and been replaced by three trainers , who did not know what to do and senior members of staff just doing nothing. This hotel has lost its way and do not be fooled by its royal connections. Would never return
