I visit the Goring several times a year when work colleagues are staying there. Sometimes I just pop in for a drink, occasionally for afternoon tea and quite often dinner. Whenever I turn up the staff ( who seem ever constant ) give me the warmest welcome always remembering who I am. The service is impeccable and the atmosphere relaxed... More

Fanastic service!!! Beautiful rooms. Family owned and operated. Excellent restaurant and bar. Breakfast in the Dining Room is a must. Tea in the bar area is special. The courtyard behind the hotel is the best in London. Great location on a quiet street.

The Goring is located in a small side street very close to Victoria Station. Three of us arrived separately for dinner. The staff were friendly and the service was outstanding. They effortlessly brought us together in the bar where we enjoyed a leisurely predinner drink and a view of the beautiful interior garden. If it had been warmer we would... More

I stayed in the Gorning on my way home from the Maldives as had a meeting in London the next morning. A real home from home and a nice place to stay if your looking for a top class hotel and i mean class! The staff are excellent, the room could have been a little bigger but all in all... More

Spent a night here on our return from holiday in Malta. Where do I start? All the staff we met were friendly and polite, not stuffy but equally not over familiar. Room was lovely, spacious with its own little hallway. Very comfortable bed, excellent air conditioning. Beautiful bathroom (altho we didn't figure out how to get into the shower!) and... More

This week I stayed at the Goring on Tuesday and Claridges on Wednesday and having been asked which I preferred then it had to be staying at the Goring. Upon checking in I was asked if I would like an upgrade to a King size room for £60. Having saved up a few Avios points I was staying for free... More

Undoubtably still the best hotel in London if you value customer service that is efficient, discrete and always helpful. To some it may be a little old fashioned but that is the whole point of the Goring! They also serve the best afternoon tea in London which is always a big hit with family. Restaurant good for business entertaining if... More

We had a 2 day stay at the Goring, a young family of 4 plus my mother also. We had 3 rooms between us, that were all close together in the same corridor of the hotel. The rooms were very pleasant, and the children's beds had cartoon-character bed-spreads, which went down very well. There was a selection of books for... More

Stepping into the foyer at the Goring is like entering a lovely cosy world where everything is tasteful, everyone has perfect manners and the vulgar realities of normal life are excluded. The food is delicious, the drinks well mixed and the service attentive while being unobtrusive. Regulars are recognised and welcomed and the place has a reassuringly 'clubby' feel to... More
