I didn’t care for the toilet which was mounted in a wooden chair. It’s an odd complaint, I realize, but it seemed such a poor idea in terms of sanitation.

Property seems a bit worn. I was particularly unhappy with the toilet which was set into a wooden throne/chair. Though I appreciate the quirky thought it seemed quite unsanitary to me

The Gore is a beautiful old hotel which has been magnificently maintained. The food at the restaurant and the bar were delicious but a bit on the pricey side . Overall I enjoyed my stay and would visit again.

Excellent Comfortable Stay in a Beautiful Hotel

Lovely hotel V close to the Royal Albert Hall. Booked a deluxe room but were given a complimentary upgrade to a junior suite which was lovely. Well appointed, wonderfully old fashioned with panelling and a panelled bathroom too. Extremely clean, coffee machine, complimentary water, decent & plentiful coathangers, big fluffy towels, dressing gowns and slippers. Staff are very nice and welcoming too. Lift to the 3rd floor. Given the age of the building, you can't really hear road noise, or rooms next or above you. Overall a lovely stay and we wouldn't hesitate to stay there again which I can't say very often when visiting London. It's usually just poor service in "well photographed" hotels at a crazy price tag.
