For over a century, we have been perfecting the quintessential experience of Afternoon Tea, an enduring tradition that lies at the heart of The Goring. Proudly recognized as a holder of The British Tea Guild Council’s Top London Afternoon Tea Award and The Award of Excellence, we invite guests to savour an exquisite selection of delicate pastries, sumptuous homemade fruity jams, and an array of premium tea blends. Our thoughtfully curated menu evolves with the seasons, featuring the freshest, locally-sourced ingredients to enhance every bite. Each afternoon, tea is elegantly served on The Veranda, offering tranquil views of our beautiful garden.
The Goring stands apart as London’s last family-owned luxury hotel, a beacon of hospitality with over a century of dedication to exceptional service. Our legacy is lovingly carried forward by our highly trained staff, whose professional expertise is complemented by a warm and playful approach that immediately puts our guests at ease. At The Goring, we take pride in creating a home-away-from-home experience, indulging our guests with thoughtful touches and personal attention. Even after 113 years, we remain committed to surprising and delighting those who visit us, including our most frequent and discerning clientele.
At The Goring, great service is built on passion and generosity, and while our awards bring us pride, it is the recognition of our guests that truly inspires us. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in Belgravia—the heart of one of London’s most exclusive neighbourhoods—The Goring boasts a location that is both serene and central. Only a royal wave away from Buckingham Palace and a stone’s throw from Knightsbridge and Mayfair, our hotel is perfectly situated for accessing world-class shopping, vibrant theatre, and iconic attractions. Whether you’re enjoying a weekend retreat or an extended stay, The Goring offers an unparalleled setting to relax, recharge, and rediscover everything that makes London extraordinary.
