The Corinthia London is one of London’s top luxury hotels.
The Corinthia London was originally the Metropole Hotel and opened it’s door in 1885. It is a hotel steeped in rich London history. It has played pivotal government roles in both world wars and underwent an almost £500 million refurb in more recent years.
If history is of no interest to you and you like to live in the present then allow us to give you a brief overview of one of London’s most iconic hotel offerings today.
Kerridge’s
An iconic London eatery. Kerridge’s Bar & Grill is a must if you like excellent British cuisine with impeccable service. I highly recommend a traditional Sunday roast here. Perfect for laid back celebrity spotting but here everyone is treated like a star. From the maître d’ to the waiting staff to the sommelier, everyone was so polite and attentive. The food is pricey but outstanding and it is clear the restaurants’ namesake has collected a Michelin star. Tom Kerridge’s team at the Corinthia London certainly do not let him down at this beautiful establishment. A must if you are in town; perfect to enjoy with an upscale companion.
The Garden
All year round The Garden is a real treat. In the summer it is akin to a St Tropez oasis and in the winter a luxurious apres ski experience but don’t be confused, you are still very much at the Corinthia London. The menus reflect the seasons and as per with this beautiful hotel, the attention to detail is second to none. Summer menus have offerings such as sea bass, pizzette and gelato as if you were in Provence. The winter menus offer sourdough with salted butter, venison stew and macaroni cheese. A wonderful experience awaits you and a gorgeous dinner date companion.
The Northall
Chef Andre offers both a set menu and a la carte at this exceptional eatery inside the Corinthia London. Ex Cliveden chef Andre has carefully curated a seasonal, local produce menu to make the mouth water. Perfect to wine and dine your gorgeous companion with oysters, Dover sole, steamed trout or filleted beef, washed down with the finest wines and champagne. Prepare to loosen your belt and open up your wallet at this 5-star dining establishment.
Afternoon Tea
What could be more British than an afternoon tea in a beautiful historical London hotel? The Corinthia London does not disappoint. Served in The Crystal Moon lounge, this is no ordinary afternoon tea. Of course they offer champagne afternoon tea but if you really want to impress your companion then go for the Champagne Caviar Afternoon Tea. At £165 per person you will be served petite finger sandwiches, scones and sweet treats such as cherry & vanilla frangipane tart and strawberries & cream choux pastries.
The Crystal Moon Lounge
The Crystal Moon Lounge at the Corinthia London takes its name from the impressive Baccarat crystal chandelier that hangs high above in this beautiful, contemporary yet regal lounge. Adjacent to The Garden, the lounge offers all day dining as well as afternoon tea. Perfect if you and your companion just fancy a bite. Salads, oysters and nibbles are available until 6pm. They serve teas and coffees as well as a selection of champagnes and wines. Any lady would be impressed.
