The Gore Hotel

One of the most gorgeously preserved Edwardian hotels in London, the Gore is pure romance. Rooms are large and lavishly furnished, and a series of luxurious signature suites are named for famous repeat guests like Judy Garland. As the official hotel of the Royal Albert Hall, the elegant on-site bistro and cozy, glowy and wood-paneled bar are generally hopping with a cultured crowd.
