Expert reviews

CNN review:

“Perfectly located for the shops of Covent Garden and the cinemas of Leicester Square, The Savoy was Marilyn Monroe’s London hotel of choice and, if you can stretch to the £400-plus nightly fee, it can to become yours.”

Fodors review:

“The Savoy is a landmark structure deeply connected to London with a rich, glamorous history that tends to rub off on its guests. A favorite of Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, and Charlie Chaplin, this grandest of grand dames is one of London’s oldest luxury hotels and might justifiably be called its finest.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in London.

Forbes review:

“Opened in 1889 as the first truly high-end hotel in Britain, The Savoy has been at the forefront of decadence ever since, having introduced a series of mod cons ranging from electric lighting to hot running water, en suite bathrooms to air-conditioning.”

Telegraph review:

“There is something deeply reassuring about The Savoy. In a world of constant change, the hotel retains a tangible sense of tradition, and its restaurants, among them the Gordon Ramsay-affiliated Savoy Grill and Simpson’s-in-the-Strand, maintain consistently high standards.”

Beautiful timeless opulence - the old London that is loved.

The timeless beauty of the hotel and the wonderful staff. The cocktail bar is sublime please don’t change the decor. The porters outside are always charming and special mention to Josh in the bar with his ‘wheel of fortune’ - he was lovely.

The dancing ballerinas in the main breakfast room are a bit naff. It looks like a gym/ spa with them on the walls. Where is the portrait of the Queen? Are you waiting for one of the King to hang?

Room for improvement

Arrival and greeting from Erika was very professional and welcoming. We had a drink in the American Bar in the evening and Rachel was so chatty and again, professional. Breakfast on Saturday morning was excellent with a very attentive professional waitress (I didn't get her name). The new function areas are majestic, beautifully done. River Restaurant fantastic, delicious food, informed waitress and sommelier who made our meal super enjoyable.

Our room had not been renovated and had no view, the bed was super comfy and we did sleep well. The water pressure was intermittent. Breakfast on Sunday morning was a contrast to the day before with 3 requests for toast...! The Savoy filtered water doesn't taste great.

Amazing experience everyone should try and have at least once

Outstanding experience. Example we arrived earlier than check-in time and were treated fantastically in the Reading Room. Teng attended to us in an exceptional way. Breakfasts were brilliant and it was cool to try the Gallery and River restaurants. The Savoy Grill was a highlight of our stay. Brilliant room too!

Occasionally food servers were a bit serious, but almost always professional.

Absolutely my favourite place to stay

I absolutely love the Savoy! I love the feeling when you first walk into reception and feel all that history around you

I didn’t like the way they put the pull out bed there was not a lot of room to get to the bathroom. It was a bit of a squeeze. Also my pre-ordered two platters of strawberries cost £46. My total bill ended up being £109. I’m still waiting for breakdown so I can understand the extra charges

Best Hotel in London

Everything. It is my “go to” hotel in London and it is perfect in every way. The staff is exceptional, and their service is top-notch. There’s not anything they won’t do for you. Shout outs to Tony, Rob, Michael - the best doormen anywhere in the world. Also to Caesar. The accommodations are also wonderful. I was upgraded to an art deco jr. suite and thoroughly enjoyed it! I felt ensconced in luxury. I dined at the Savoy Grill and every dish was superb.

Great location great hotel but unfortunately may not return

A last minute choice to stay whilst going to the theatre Room on small side but you know this when booking American bar was very nice and staff friendly

At breakfast you felt staff put you close to where they are serving from rather than show you to a great seat when the restaurant isn’t busy, also the table was a little small for water juice coffee pastries and your breakfast ( with hindsight should have asked for a better table )

Fantastic weekend treat while going to see shows.

The whole experience from the staff, facilities, the most comfy bed I have ever slept in! and breakfast included was brilliant. We had a blip with our room when I got there and Arthur was great at listening and taking time to give feedback and we got it resolved.

Only two things. When we got there are room was a twin but beds were together and then housekeeping came and moved them and put a table in the middle which made a huge difference, was just a completely different twin room to last time. The other thing was the optional service charge is added on every bill, even when just having one drink.

Location, Anna at reception was lovely and helped me in a pinch, room service was top notch, bellmen were great, martinis in the American bar were great, offered great gluten free options throughout the property, beds were comfy, rooms were well appointed, good mix of guests from all over the world

No nail service available and the gym never got back to me about a private Pilates instruction
