Default Hospitality School of London / School of Hospitality of London

Good afternoon:

Considering these two posibilities:

Hospitality School of London / School of Hospitality of London

Could you explain the difference?

I think that the first one is the correct option, but I have also found expressions as "school of xxx of xxx" all over the Internet.

Obviously, one of them is correct. In such a case, why so many native people use them in the same way and meaning?



Thank you

They are both correct. I prefer the first.

Here's an interesting BE/AmE difference. I prefer neither. I'd say "The London School of Hospitality".
