Studying in 
London

As one of the world’s top tourism destinations, and with close to 100 five-star hotels in its city limits, London is an ideal location to study the business of hospitality.

Well-connected, highly cosmopolitan and offering world class sports and cultural events 365 days a year, the UK capital is also the perfect choice to make the most of your downtime.

Languages

English is the official language of teaching and communication at Glion. However, with the international nature of our student cohort you will hear a wide variety of languages spoken outside of the classroom. 

You’ll also develop exceptional intercultural fluency not just from your classmates, but also from living in the cultural melting pot that is London.

Culture in London

London is a global capital of culture, with events, exhibitions and shows to suit every taste and passion.
