Corinthia London Tour

The fabulous lobby lounge chandelier

During a recent trip to the UK Liz Lycette managed to catch up with Anne-lyse Dufour, Executive Housekeeper at the stunning new 5 star, Corinthia London. Anne-lyse took a little time out of her busy schedule to show Liz around the hotel located in the centre of London at Whitehall Place, right next to Charing Cross station and overlooking the Thames. The 294 room Corinthia Hotel London is the flagship of the Corinthia group and has become the ninth member of the Corinthia family, opening its doors in May this year.

The hotel is in the style of a Grand Hotel with many modern and contemporary touches. It has specialty restaurants and London’s largest spa and wellness facility.

The soaring dome in the centre of the lobby lounge features a Full Moon chandelier created by Parisian designer Chafik Gasmi and produced by Baccarat, the prestigious French crystal manufacturer. The Full Moon, composed of 1,001 crystal baubles, is the grand focal point of the main hotel area. This will be an interesting cleaning assignment for housekeeping!
