  • Signature Suites Set a New Benchmark for Gracious Living
    SIGNATURE SUITE S LIFE TO THE F U ll London… one of the world’s great cultural hubs where business, the arts, politics and finance fuse together in a cauldron of cosmopolitan energy. E XCE ll ENCE & SOPHI S TICATION Corinthia Hotel London, the city’s superb new Grand Hotel, is right at the heart of the great metropolis, close to Trafalgar Square and the River Thames. A short stroll north past Nelson’s Column takes you to London’s world class theatres, art galleries and opera houses. Head south, and you can cross the 5 footbridge over the Thames where the Southbank Centre’s inspiring arts complex and the London Eye await. To the west are the shops of Piccadilly and St James’s, while the City of London is a short taxi ride away to the east. Our starting point was an important historic building. For half a century until the 1930s, the Hôtel Métropole was located here. This is where Mantovani made his name as a conductor, and the splendid Victorian ballroom where his orchestra played survives to this day, now sensitively restored and remodelled. our Paolo Mantovani suite features a baby grand piano IN THE GRAN D S T YL E This is not a hotel that looks backward to past glories.T aking the building’s fine bone structure and period features as our canvas, we have spared no expense in creating exquisite contemporary spaces to delight, impress and inspire our guests. We set ourselves a demanding goal: to bring together the best design, authentic craft skills and cutting edge technology to create the 7 Grand Hotel of the future.

OPPOSITE page: The Savoy stands on the banks of the Thames. OPENING page: The Monet Personality Suite at The Savoy is the perfect room for any writer Geoffrey Chaucer. For several years in the late 1360s – long before Frette sheets and room service – the original Savoy Palace was home for Chaucer, and he is thought to have composed some of The Canterbury Tales there. The Savoy Palace was destroyed in the Peasants Revolt of 1381 and the site redeveloped several times over subsequent centuries. The creation of the hotel itself is in large part due to an artistic success. Richard D’Oyly Carte was an English talent agent and theatrical impresario. In 1875 he brought together dramatist WS Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan and persuaded them to write the first of the Savoy Operas. The operas were so well received that D’Oyly Carte built the Savoy Theatre in 1881 to better stage them. It was a groundbreaking venue – the world’s first theatre to be lit entirely by electricity. Riding off the back of his success with the operas, he toured America with them. It was in the US that he experienced the luxury of modern and comfortable hotels and determined to build one in London for his American opera fans when they visited.
