The Goring is an alpha-plus luxury hotel near central London that stands distinctively in a class of its own. The oldest privately owned hotel in London, it has, by virtue of proximity, become the unofficial accommodation annex to Buckingham Palace on state occasions. A family-run hotel, rich with elegance and sprinkled liberally with charmingly whimsical touches, The Goring offers a refreshingly genuine approach to caring for guests.
The Goring hotel remains a paragon of Edwardian Baroque, yet also finds room for gentle, family-inspired eccentricities, such as the life-like sheep you meet as you pass from room to room. Quintessentially English with perfect service and traditional decoration, The Goring has been in the Goring family since 1910 when it was built. Immediately on completion, the building was commandeered by the American Army who thoughtfully redecorated it on their departure in 1918. Since then the Goring family have won OBEs and awards for their contributions to the hotel industry and it is easy to understand why if you visit this incredible hotel.
One of the many surprises at The Goring hotel is the 'secret garden' - to which guests have full access, which is overlooked by many of the 71 luxurious guest rooms and suites, and can be fully enjoyed while enjoying a delicious snack from the Garden Bar. The best in English cuisine is served in the hotel's restaurant and private dining rooms.
Beeston Place is near Victoria Station and just behind Buckingham Palace and when the Crown Prince of Norway was visiting the Palace in the ‘twenties he preferred to stay at The Goring because here, he didn’t have to share a bathroom! The hotel was the first in the world to have a bathroom en suite to every room.
Starting with the friendly greeting from the doorman there is a relaxed English atmosphere of attentive yet discreet service. This is a ‘home from home’ and there is a real sense of ease and comfort. The Garden Bar, overlooking the beautiful private garden is the perfect venue for meeting friends and one may relax in the lounge, leading off the bar.
Morning coffee and afternoon tea may be taken on the terrace or in the lounge and the intimate dining room serves excellent English food with a few light continental touches.
Each of the rooms and suites are individually decorated in a traditional and sumptuous style. Everything is clearly of the very highest quality and spotlessly maintained by the diligent staff and room service is available twenty-four hours a day. It is the atmosphere which the staff create that is the most special thing here.
As they say themselves: Cesar Ritz built The Ritz, the Claridges family founded Claridge’s and Mr Brown built Brown’s. All these famous hoteliers have sadly passed away but there will always be a Mr. Goring at The Goring. Their hospitality is second to none, they expend over a million pounds a year in redecoration alone and now in the fourth generation of the family, The Goring and its enigmatic sheep are waiting to extend their welcome to you!
