| Charing Cross Hotel: Since 1865, the Charing Cross Hotel
has stood as a monument to the vision and confidence of the Victorian
railway age. Now, as part of the Guoman collection, it sets new
standards for world class hotels in our own, very different century.
Charing Cross is a grade II listed Victorian railway hotel dating
back from 1865. In front of the hotel is a 70 feet replica of
the original Eleanor Cross which stood there in 1291 to mark the
funeral procession of Queen Eleanor. The cross was commissioned
by the hotel and erected in 1865.
The name Charing Cross derives from the old English word charing,
meaning a bend in the river; thus, the Charing Cross is "the
cross by the bend in the river".
In 1878 the hotel was further extended and then again in 1952,
when two more floors were added to the top. The hotel was extensively
damaged during the Second World War and underwent restoration,
which did not take place until 1951. A new floor was subsequently
added in time for the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
