Pride in the Quarter, June to August
Inspired by the beauty and atmosphere of Victoria Embankment Gardens, this lioness celebrates the tulips, music and community spirit that define the space. Layers of colour, florals and playful characters bring the sculpture to life, reflecting the diversity and creativity found throughout London. Rainbow details woven through the design celebrate pride, individuality and joy, while the flowing composition highlights the elegant form of the lioness itself.
e.g. about the local area (some famous landmark lions), World Cup stat, etc.
Situated moments from the River Thames in the heart of Westminster, Corinthia London blends historic grandeur with the timeless spirit of modern London. First opened as a hotel in 1885, the landmark building has long been part of the city’s story, and this summer, celebrates Britain’s social season in distinctive style.
In partnership with Lock & Co. Hatters, the world’s oldest hat shop founded in 1676 and marking its 350th anniversary this year, Corinthia London presents Hats Off to the Summer Season! – a curated exhibition of exquisite hats through the ages. Displayed in the hotel’s Crystal Moon Lounge, the installation traces iconic British summer moments from Wimbledon and Henley to Royal Ascot.
Complemented by quintessentially British menus in Corinthia’s Crystal Moon Lounge and The Garden restaurant, the season captures the charm, ceremony and creativity of a London summer at its most memorable.
Beyond its stately façade, Corinthia London is home to refined, yet relaxed experiences: from destination dining and elegant afternoon tea to Biome, its pioneering four-floor spa and wellness space. With views across some of the capital’s most iconic landmarks, the hotel sits within easy reach of Trafalgar Square, the South Bank and St James’s Park.
