London to gain new luxury hotel

LONDON will gain another new luxury establishment when Corinthia opens its flagship hotel and residences project towards the end of 2010.  The iconic Metropole Building on Northumberland Avenue and the adjoining 10 Whitehall Place was acquired last year from The Crown Estates.  The Maltese-based company has since secured full funding and commenced works for the refurbishment of both buildings into a high grade hotel and private accommodation.  Corinthia Hotels says it is now set to transform the property into one of the capital's most exceptional luxury properties, having 300 bedrooms with room sizes averaging 45m², including multi-level penthouse suites and terraces affording spectacular views of the River Thames, Trafalgar Square and Whitehall. www.corinthiahotels.com
