Corinthia London

Being a lover of high quality hotels especially in London, bloggers raving about the Corinthia got our minds active and having recently retired and celebrating our 46 wedding anniversary we had to book. Arriving via Euston it’s a short Underground trip to embankment station and a two minute walk to the hotel right opposite The Horseguards Hotel ( a previous review), met at the door by smiling staff only too happy to take over and guide you in to reception. More happy smiling staff only too pleased to assist. Guided to our room and shown everything we needed to ensure a fantastic stay. Room was enormous, bathroom amazing and everything spotless. Bath and shower which would be referred to as rain shower, however it was more of a tropical storm shower, water pressure is unbelievable. King size super comfy bed, large TV and some nice welcome gifts along with a jar full of sweets. Entire hotel breathes class from the staff to the food, unfortunately the Spa , although amazing was a little noisy for us oldies. Breakfast in Kerridges was amazing and included in our rate along with a guaranteed upgrade, unfortunately not feeling too good after some street food we had to cancel our booking at the Garden Restaurant. Perfect position and overall the best hotel we have ever stayed in not only in London but worldwide. Big thank you to everyone we came into contact with during our stay, a truly wonderful team of staff working in sublime surroundings. Highly recommended *****

We stayed at the Corinthia for four nights at the end of August. This is the best hotel we have ever stayed in. It is very luxurious and the staff are all very friendly, professional and offered amazing service. Our room was beautiful and as we were celebrating our anniversary had some very nice treats in our. We could only use the swimming pool in the spa as we were travelling with our 5 year old but this was just beautiful and again the staff were just lovely. We dined in the Kerridge Bar and Grill and few times and the Garden room. The food in the restaurants is just fabulous and the staff are all very attentive. Francesco the sommelier was very friendly and professional. His knowledge of wine and champagne is very impressive. We enjoyed learning from him everyday. Nora who also works in the Kerridge bar and grill was just lovely. Again her knowledge of the food and Tom himself was amazing. We can’t wait to visit again.

Just premier league.,.................the best stay without a doubt..... I.ll be seeing the inside of this hotel again without doubt.

I had a wonderful first afternoon tea at the Corinthia after wanting to visit for many years. As soon as we walked in the staff were very friendly and this continued throughout our visit. The service was more informal than I have experienced at similar London afternoon teas which I actually prefer as it felt more personable. The afternoon tea is served in the Crystal Moon Lounge which was a smaller room than I expected but still offers a luxury and intimate feel about it. I felt the staff were incredibly accommodating to dietary requirements; being pregnant there were two sandwiches I couldn’t eat but was provided with alternatives which wasn’t expected but of course appreciated! The egg mayonnaise was definitely the stand-out for me, the other sandwiches were good but if I’m being honest I don't feel they had that wow factor or were justified, I personally feel for £85 per person cucumber and cream cheese shouldn’t be offered! I had the decaf English breakfast tea which had a gorgeous subtle caramel taste. I then moved on to a white peach and mango tea, recommended by our waiter, and I could have drank three more teapots of it! I loved how the scones were served; they were warm, fluffy and served with Cornish clotted cream and both strawberry and apricot jams, although both plain. The sweets trolley came last, the milk chocolate and pecan gateau was absolutely divine and the peach and cream eclair was the perfect light palette cleanser. Overall I really did enjoy this afternoon tea and pleased that I finally got to experience it, but I feel the savouries could have been better.

My parents were staying at a different hotel in London for their friends Golden Wedding Anniversary celebrations, so as my parents are in the 80’s we decided to drive them in to London on the Friday and collect them on the Sunday. My husband loves the Corinthian Hotel, so we chose straightaway to spend our weekend here. We weren’t disappointed, check in super easy, room was ready and we arrived at 1pm, so that was a bonus. Received a bottle of champagne and some macaroons to the room, plus the sweetie jar, which took a hammering!!! Breakfast was plentiful, lots of choice, so we really enjoyed that. Valet parking was a breeze, all staff were helpful and friendly and we just had an amazing, relaxing couple of days seeing the sites of London. Would certainly come back next time in London
