The Gore is the perfect venue for business and private events, thanks to its central location between Knightsbridge and Kensington. It’s elegant sophisticated atmosphere is rich in history.

Tapestry Room

A sweeping staircase from Bar 190 leads down to the impressive Tapestry Room. This is where the Rolling Stones famously decided to host the party for the launch of “Beggars Banquet”. With 2 vast stone fireplaces, it has stunning  panelled walls, gilded mirrors and tapestries. It can be connected to the adjacent Mulberry Room for larger events.

Mulberry Room 

The warm sophistication of the wood panelling and the natural light, filtering down from above to illuminate three sash windows with crimson velvet curtains, infuse The Mulberry Room with a distinctively opulent masculine charm. It is the perfect setting for that all-important meeting for up to 24 people, offering an impressive array of modern facilities.

The Library

A large, traditional drawing room on The Gore’s ground floor, The Library, is an exquisitely elegant setting for a business meeting or dinner party of up to 24 people. Spacious, elegant and cosy, with plush sofas and comfortable armchairs, it’s flooded with daylight through three large sash windows. The grand mahogany bookcase, interesting portraits and original ornate fireplace make this a unique, intimate space for any private function.
