(Forimmediaterelease.net) Corinthia Hotel London has been selected by the editors of Travel + Leisure for the prestigious 2012 It List, composed of the 50 most inventive and inspiring new hotels of the year. Travel + Leisure noted the hotel is “an ode to grand living… filled with extravagant gestures.” Corinthia Hotel London’s inclusion on the celebrated It List follows the recent unveiling of “The Seven Penthouses of Corinthia London,” a spectacular collection of exclusive duplex penthouse hotel suites, heralding a new era of luxury accommodation for the city. With only a small handful of existing top-tier suites in the major hotels of London, the penthouses are expected to transform the city’s luxury market, setting new standards for the hospitality world.

Corinthia London is a 21st century grand hotel located in the heart of London, created by experts with a passion for craftsmanship and an understanding of world-class service. Housed within a Victorian building, 294 rooms, including 36 suites and 7 penthouses offer sweeping views across London’s most popular landmarks. Corinthia Hotel London provides unrivaled world-class luxury with superb ground floor offerings including restaurant The Northall, serving the best in British produce throughout the day; speciality seafood at Massimo Restaurant&Oyster Bar; and the musically-inspired Bassoon Bar. Corinthia London is also home to the flagship ESPA Life at Corinthia, a next-generation spa housed across four floors. The hotel boasts the largest room sizes in London, original restored Victorian columns, and tall windows that let in swathes of natural light. Cutting-edge technology in rooms and meeting rooms allow for recording, mixing, and broadcasting from dedicated media rooms. Corinthia London is the ninth of Corinthia Hotels’ collection of five-star hotels founded by the Pisani family of Malta.

The Travel + Leisure 2012 It List appears in the June 2012 issue of the magazine, online at TravelandLeisure.com, and in the June digital editions on iPad®, NOOK Color™, and Kindle Fire™.
