Corinthia London

This hotel is one of my favorites in London. I am currently a guest and this is my third stay. As always, the service is excellent, and the staff is wonderful. However, the rooms are starting to look a little bit faded. I’ve always asked for and stayed in room 504, which is a garden suite. This time 504 was not available and I was put in room 604, also a garden suite. The problem is that the rooms kind of looked like they need refreshing. A couple of stains on the carpeting, Knicks in the paint. A water stain on the wallpaper in the bedroom. Just overall in need of refreshment. It looks like they may be refreshing the rooms, but they didn’t get to this one yet. I’m hoping that this is all a one off. I travel to London at least once a year and really want to come back to the Corinthia.

Absolutely perfect. Elegant, luxurious and outstanding service. From the doormen who were all outstanding, the reception who found us a perfect room and the breakfast team at kerridges who all made for a delightful stay. Thanks in particular to Lucia for making sure our stay was perfect and Ruffat and his team at breakfast, who started each day for us with a big smile and incredibly attentive service We have been here many times and the hotel never disappoints. If you are looking for a luxurious hotel in a prime location, this is it.

Afternoon Tea at the Corinthia is decadence sandwiched - and deliciously so. The sandwiches are all flavoursome, the scones are moorish, and the cakes… let’s just say that when they wheel the dessert trolley round, it’s tempting to take them all. My friend and I had the heartiest of experiences. This is the premier London Afternoon Tea.

Fantastic stay at the Corinthia - loved every minute. The spa is wonderful and the rooms were a great size and luxurious. Really impressed with the customer service when i left an item behind. Thank you - we will be back would recommend. Just note the room service charge on check out

We chose Corinthia for NYE as we have stayed many times before & thought it would be a great opportunity to welcome the New Year & see the fireworks. We couldn’t get a room so booked the NYE early menu in Mezzogiorno. A hefty £450 before drinks. We asked for a late table (£880!) but nothing available. I asked if they could call me if one did as we were flying into London that afternoon & would suit us better. Arrived at restaurant at 6 to be immediately informed, you wanted a late table, we have one, would you prefer. No, we were already dressed & ready just to sit around 2hrs & pay double, made no sense. Restaurant was FREEZING, people sitting eating with big coats on & I had to ask for mine back from cloakroom. Not ideal NYE sitting in your coat. The food - not good. Starter missing some elements, told the waiter & he brought on side plate. Main ok, dessert was the worst I’ve ever had. One taste & left untouched. Was basically a toasted loaf and pungent custard. My partner had one spoonful of his & could not eat it either. Plenty of seats & people were able to order pizza.. would have been much nicer that £400 unappetizing food. This wasn’t an option for us? Moved to Velvet for drinks, asked to sit at bar as tables were taken, they weren’t as the people we got chatting to at the tables later had just walked in. Velvet was also FREEZING cold. So not what you need when paying a premium for cocktails. Staff were good. Band in Velvet were the savior. Best thing about the visit. Very underwhelmed with whole experience. Good location right outside to see the fireworks.
