The Restaurant at Corinthia London

"If you can’t decide which restaurant to try, why not book a "dining safari" and have one course in each? Guest rooms in cool, masculine tones have beautiful city views, and spacious bathrooms have underfloor heating, so even your toes will feel pampered"

"Visit the National Portrait Gallery during evening hours on Thursdays or Fridays, then head up to the rooftop Portrait Restaurant for drinks and supper"

"The excellent Northall restaurant uses exclusively British ingredients (Morecambe Bay potted shrimps, whole Dover sole, Cumbrian beef); the ESPA spa is one of the city's largest, featuring 17 treatment rooms and a 29-foot stainless steel pool"

"The on-site ESPA spa spreads across four floors, and The Northall restaurant offers excellent British fare"

"We were impressed by the subtler touches: The Northall, the smaller English restaurant, for its all-local, organic ingredients, and the über-private sleep “pods” in the four-story spa"

"Other amenities include a chic basement bar with live music, a pair of restaurants offering upscale British and Italian fare, and a sophisticated, four-storey spa and fitness centre"

"The hotel boasts a superb spa, a speakeasy-inspired bar, and great Italian food at their Massimo Restaurant"

"The second eatery, Massimo Restaurant & Bar, serving modern Italian cuisine, is the more colorful, with an art-deco look from the steam age, with striped pillars, globe chandeliers and a mosaic tile floor"

"A quick spin through the green-and-gold Harrods boutique, and we settled in at the grand marble bar in the elegant Northall restaurant"
