Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise The Goring's classic British elegance, noting its prime location near Buckingham Palace and Green Park. The rooms are often described as beautifully decorated and luxurious, some even resembling a first-class stateroom, featuring silk wallpapers and comfortable beds; the recently refurbished dining room is magnificent and serves food whose excellence matches the surroundings - eggs drumkilbo and the duck are particularly good. While most find the experience exceptional, a few guests have mentioned the absence of coffee machines, kettles, or fridges in the rooms as a surprising omission for a five-star hotel.

comfortable bedin-room temperaturehigh minibar prices
the room was clean and the bed was comfortable.
I had a problem with the in-room temperature control. the room was too warm, and i could not adjust the thermostat (i even tried calling maintenance). this made it difficult to sleep well. also, i found the minibar prices to be excessively high. A small bottle of water cost more than i expected.
