When staying in Kensington, I always try and stay at The Gore. It’s a charming and historic hotel situated almost next door to The Royal Albert Hall. The V&A and Natural History Museum are a short walk away, as is Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens. South Kensington and Gloucester Road tube stations are around half a mile away and bus routes are plentiful. The staff at the hotel are friendly, highly professional and give great service. Highly recommended.

A great property in a prime area. It’s not the most modern place but we loved the history and the staff was friendly and helpful. Plus, the food was excellent and they have a lovely sitting room too while some time.

The Gore is an attractive building in a quiet and attractive street, within easy walking distance of The Royal Albert Hall. Inside, it is cozy and characterful, with beautiful antique furnishings and artwork. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and most helpful. Our room - one of the smaller rooms the hotel offers - was a good size and offered lots of storage space. It was very clean, beautifully and charmingly decorated, and the bed was extremely comfortable. The bathroom was also clean and well appointed, although some of the sealant around the bath was discoloured and definitely in need of being replaced. We enjoyed the complimentary Penhaligon’s toiletries, however. Breakfast was good, and we enjoyed spending time in Bar 190, which has a really nice, mellow atmosphere. Overall, a very enjoyable stay.

Great Hotel! Definitely will book again
I booked this for myself and my partner when visiting for a night to attend Hyde Park BST....I am so glad we booked here, the staff were amazing, the bed was so comfortable, and as it was my partners birthday there was a small birthday cake waiting for us in the room. Also glad we chose to have the breakfast which was well worth the money and delicious.
