CityJet destination guide - London

 
 

Things to do in London - February/March  If you’re looking for a very special hotel in the city, then The Goring – and one of their gorgeous new Gainsborough Silk Suites – is for you. The New Belgravia Suites have been redesigned with different historic silks on the walls from the Gainsborough Silk Company, the Royal Warrant-holding Suffolk textile mill which holds an archive of 7,0000 historic silks, any of which can be re-woven on commission. The suites champion British craftsmanship and history and each is completely unique with its own style, plus antiques and objets d’art as befits The Goring, which is 101 years old and still the only five-star hotel in London to be owned and run by the family that built it. And if you think it sounds familiar, it’s the hotel that Kate Middleton chose to spend her last night as a commoner before her wedding to Prince William. www.thegoring.com
