About The Goring

A British Institution

The Goring is a living chapter of British history. Just a stone’s throw from Buckingham Palace, this cherished London landmark has, since 1910, hosted royalty, dignitaries, and those with a taste for true English character. As the only hotel to hold a Royal Warrant for hospitality, The Goring doesn’t just represent British excellence, it defines it, with elegance, wit, and a touch of regal charm.

For four generations, the Goring family has lovingly presided over this iconic house, nurturing a warm, intimate atmosphere and a refined sense of service. The Michelin-starred Dining Room pays tribute to British cuisine with a fresh take on timeless classics. The English art of living continues with Afternoon Tea in the Veranda or a cocktail at the bar, where herbs from the private garden elevate local spirits. Tucked away in the heart of London, this secluded garden remains a rare and treasured sanctuary.
