Over one hundred years of tradition, elegance, and luxury come together at the 5-star Goring Hotel in London. Located in the district of Belgravia, arguably the most impressive area of London, the Goring Hotel is the quintessential English luxury hotel in the most fashionable neighborhood in the city. It’s really no wonder why Kate Middleton played sleeping beauty at this fabulous boutique hotel the night before her royal wedding to Prince William.

Founded in 1910, the story of The Goring began when OR Goring, the Great Grandfather of the Goring Hotel, persuaded the Duke of Westminster to sell him the plot of land to build a hotel that would become the first hotel in the world to have en-suite amenities and central heating in every bedroom. The 71 rooms and suites have undergone a careful makeover by some of the top British Interior Designers, infusing glamor, sophistication, and a touch of English luxury to each through the use of rich fabrics designed by Nina Campbell, silks from the ancient house of Gainsborough, a rejuvenating color palette, and gorgeous bespoke furniture in each room, creating the ideal home away from home.

A third of the rooms overlook the Goring Hotel’s lush private garden, while the remaining offer splendid views of Victoria Square and Beeston Place. All of the suites are so luxurious and spacious they will spoil you, but the ultimate experience in royalty happens when you stay in the Royal Suite. Newly opened in 2010 to commemorate the hotel’s Centenary, this unique suite will have you feeling like a prince or princess. With four rooms sprawled across the entire length of the top floor, the Royal Suite offers breathtaking views of the private gardens and has a new balcony showing off fabulous panoramic views of the London skyline. The Drawing Room and Dining Room are a soothing pale blue, while the two bedrooms are indulgently champagne pink and a sage silk from a pattern woven in 1910. Start your morning off right with daily suite sweets personally created by the in-house pastry chef and your local or international newspaper of choice and enjoy a rich espresso from your en-suite Nespresso machine while you dive into one of the many antique books found in your royal haven.

Dining at the Goring is an experience in itself, with the focus on proper English cuisine. Proudly using carefully-chosen produce, they take food seriously - so seriously that many of their suppliers, farmers, and producers are well-kept secrets. For a sophisticated meal, try the Dining Room, with its custom Swarowski chandeliers. Alternatively, get lost on the Veranda, enjoying an al fresco meal overlooking the Goring’s flourishing private gardens. Of course, a stay at the Goring is not complete without the English tradition of afternoon tea. On the Veranda, overlooking the gardens, or indoors in the cozy lounge, afternoon tea at the Goring Hotel is a well-deserved indulgence.

Today, the Goring Hotel is synonymous with English elegance and glamour. A British mainstay, this historic property is traditional enough to make you feel like royalty, yet has undergone a modern makeover to ensure that it’s still fresh and contemporary. In a city like London where there are many luxury hotels, few offer the history, tradition, or upscale surroundings as the five-star Goring Hotel.
