I stayed five nights at the Gore while traveling to London for business. This quaint, upscale boutique-hotel is loaded with Victorian charm. I stayed in room 405, with charming black canopy bed and heavy black drapes. Bathroom was very lovely. Nice amenities like full-sized ironing board, iron, heavy terry robe, and the standard soaps and such. Friendly staff, although we... More

The hotel has a Victorian but yet modern charm about it. We stayed in the Judy Garland room which was stunning. Great location for visiting the Royal Albert hall. More

Excellent location if you want the Royal Albert Hall which was the main reason for picking the hotel. The welcome was warm and friendly and efficient. The rooms were lovely, old style and an en-suite bathroom and cloak room. The safe didn't work however but everthing else worked. The bed was high and firm, just how me and my wife... More

Stayed a weekend, 2 nights, in January 2012. When I booked a Deluxe room on the hotels own homepage I requested any of their signature rooms and ended up in the Miss Ada room, (208) my favourite!

Extremely traditional building, lovely period decoration and friendly staff Great Green Room lounge - free soft drinks and open fire Wonderful eclectic bar Add wifi in every room and you have a strange old + new mix More

On top of that, the place was wet with fresh paint, workers everywhere....the rooms small, service kind of cold as English did not seem A language they... More

However: The "queen" rooms (which are their lowest rate "standard" rooms) are small... and i mean very small. you have to squeeze past the bed sideways to get to... More

Tucked in a tree lined avenue this little gem is so regal, I felt like royalty from the moement I walked in to the moment iI left. A great trendy modern... More

We chose South Kensington because we were visiting our son who was attending school in the area. Again, this hotel was one of Fodor's choices and we weren't disappointed! The neighborhood is fabulous - sandwiched between Hyde Park and great museums. We walked to Notting Hill and Portobello Road passing hundreds of great shops and windows on a balmy fall... More
