Must-Visit Nearby Sights
Six must-visit highlights that are a stone's throw from Corinthia London
Who wouldn’t love a short walk to the West End or a stroll along the river, as well as enjoying some of the best cultural sights, shopping, eating and drinking in London? We have chosen six must-visit highlights to share if you are in need of some inspiration...
1. ST. MARTIN-IN-THE-FIELDS
Five minutes on foot from Corinthia London
Situated on the edge of Trafalgar Square, this Anglican church was consecrated in 1726 and is an important place of contemplation and music. It has a long history of hosting classical concerts and recitals, including performances by renowned orchestras and soloists. Whether one seeks spiritual solace, cultural enrichment or a moment of reflection in the midst of the bustling city, St. Martin-in-the-Fields offers a serene and historically significant space to do so.
2. NATIONAL PORTRAIT GALLERY
Eight minutes on foot from Corinthia London
For the inevitable British rainy day, the National Portrait Gallery is the place to hide away. Explore the maze of galleries and get up close to medieval revolutionaries, Shakespeare, the Suffragettes and the Vanity Fair chromolithographs.
3. THE NATIONAL POETRY LIBRARY
Nine minutes on foot from Corinthia London
Home to the largest public collection of modern poetry in the world, the library was opened in 1953 by poets T.S. Eliot and Herbert Read, and has been at the heart of the nation’s poetry community ever since.
4. SCOOTER CAFE
17 minutes on foot from Corinthia London
A quirky, retro café like no other, with a Piatti scooter in the window and a (female) tabby cat called Bob as your feline host. Enjoy a latte to a soundtrack of French jazz in the day and bluesy sounds when the sun goes down.
5. BURLINGTON ARCADE
20 minutes on foot or 10 minutes by bus from Corinthia London
Founded in 1819, this architecturally stunning walkway is a charming shopping destination - and an ideal spot for escaping the rain during the colder seasons. Strolling through this covered passage feels like stepping into a bygone era of elegance and exclusivity. Discover a treasure trove of high-end fashion and accessories in the boutiques, or pause for a cup of tea and a Ladurée macaron.
6. SCIENCE GALLERY LONDON
40 minutes on foot or 14 minutes by tube from Corinthia London
Part of the Global Science Gallery network, this is the place for discovery and curiosity. Serving as a bridge between art and science, the gallery offers a unique platform for engagement with contemporary ideas and technologies through interactive exhibitions, workshops and events.
