The Langham London
is a true historical landmark of London. The opening of the hotel took place in 1865. For more than 100 years, the hotel has been serving famous and powerful people, including members of royal families. The luxurious hotel is famous not only for its history but also for ghosts that are rumored to live in it. For example, in room #333, visitors and maids saw a ghost of a man several times. The respectable looking man was dressed in a suit of the Renaissance period. This is not the only ghost spotted in the hotel as guests claim to have seen Napoleon III and a German prince that stayed at the hotel several times during his visits to London. Quite an interesting fact - The Langham London is the first grand hotel opened in Europe.
