OUR SUITES

Luxury Suites in Belgravia The Goring has some of the finest luxury suites in London.

THE ROYAL SUITE  – This much sought after one-bedroom penthouse suite has been designed by much acclaimed and award-winning designer Russell Sage and has a marvelous balcony overlooking The Goring Gardens. Take the lift from The Goring’s Front Hall up to the fifth floor where a footman is waiting to unpack your luggage as you make yourself at home. Sip a welcome drink in the sitting room, where there’s plenty of space to kick back and relax. This welcoming atmosphere comes in part from the hand-picked antiques including Georgian glassware and decanters as well as a unique collection of royal artifacts, from handwritten letters and stationery to military regalia. The most astonishing piece has to be a life-size portrait of Her Majesty Queen Victoria which is in the double shower of the master bathroom – protected by aircraft safety glass, of course.   The walls of the master bedroom are lined with the same beautiful silk that graced the First Class Dining Room of RMS Titanic 1912, whilst the silk in the bathroom is a match for that which adorns the throne room in Buckingham Palace.  Guests enjoy a number of personal touches such as a fully stocked bar, fresh fruit, beautiful flowers and delicious handmade chocolates. Depending on your choice of transport, guests are offered either complimentary London airport transfers or car parking in The Mews for the duration of your stay.
