The Goring

Located in the posh neighborhood of London's Belgravia, the 69-room Goring Hotel boasts an unbeatable location, Michelin-star dining and impeccable service. The hotel is situated on the edge of Westminster, which means top attractions like Buckingham Palace, Hyde Park and Parliament are all within easy reach, whether by Tube (one block away) or by foot (about 1 mile away). And after a long day of sightseeing, the Goring's rooms couldn't be a better place of refuge. Adorned with silk-lined walls, fine Italian linens and complimentary bottled water, rooms and suites are designed in a charming English style. The hotel's afternoon tea service is also quintessentially English and shouldn't be missed, according to recent guests. Previous lodgers recommended sipping tea in the property's gorgeous garden. Amenities aside, it was the incomparable staff that earned the most praise from recent guests.
