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.”

Very good

beautiful lobby, downstairs bar and the breakfast was lovely.

rooms looked like a 3/4 star hotel. Other than that the hotel itself was stunning. For paying nearly €1000 a night I would expect more from the rooms. The decor and design is outdated and old. They need a revamp. Also didnt like there was an additonal £30 per room for service charge. I travel quite a lot and stay in 5 star hotels and I have never seen this. Also 150 as a deposit fee per room is a bit hefty, you could maybe say that in advance on booking.com

A wonderful hotel that exudes quality and friendliness without ever being stuffy or snobbish.

As anticipated, it was exceptional in every way. Understated luxury throughout with outstanding service that was professional and friendly.

Nothing. It is expensive but quality of staff and the facilities comes with a price.

With visit to the theatre and Immersive Art Exhibition the Savoy was the star of our visit.

The location of the Savoy is excellent. I have mobility issues and need to use a mobility scooter but every effort was made to ensure I could access all areas of the hotel. Our booking included Breakfast which was an excellent choice, great value for money with lots of choice. The restaurant staff looked after all our requests with a warm smile and made us feel very welcome, we were able to spend as much time as we wished over breakfast.

I honestly cannot think of anything that could have been done better. We will most definitely return.

Can’t wait to stay again. All the convenience of location with friendly warmth each time we returned.

The staff had the right balance of providing supreme service, where nothing was too much trouble and were mostly preemptive, while still being personable and warm. You can find lovely hotel rooms anywhere, but finding the right staff is obviously the Savoy’s forte.

In a breakfast room of many empty tables, trying to get all of the breakfast plates on a small table for two people was a good act in jigsaw puzzling. However, this is a small quibble as everything else excellent.

Fabulous

Love the traditional decor. It’s an all in one for me. Wanted a place where I didn’t need to leave the hotel for anything. High tea was excellent. Dinner at the grill was good. The staff in general were great, especially the doormen and the lady who cleaned my room. She noticed I hadn’t used the espresso machine and left a note telling me there was a hidden button to press to turn it on. I thought that was sweet.

I liked everything.

Being very picky I didn’t like the set up of the room the tv was tucked away in the corner we couldn’t really watch it the ac made the room very cold and there wasn’t a douche in the toilet

Absolutely brilliant

As always, the Savoy exceeds it's own reputation. Pure luxury, and the staff couldn't do enough for us. The room was spacious, the bed incredibly comfortable. Just a wonderful place to stay.

The concierge assumed that we weren't residents, but soon made up for that mistake.

A remarkable, historic hotel with that old world magic.

The atmosphere, location and the staff were the absolute highlights of my stay.

The pool was small and the spa/fitness area felt a bit dated, but that's a minor minus.

Lovely breakfast and atmosphere… lovely staff Although I had ate my breakfast by the time my mum had received hers Not sure what happened but I had to ask them where my mums breakfast was

Didn’t realise there was an accommodation service charge an additional charge on top of the price we paid As all the drinks had service charge and vat on so didn’t really understand why that wasn’t explained to us really

Very good

Location is brilliant, rooms are lovely,

Having stayed once before we found this year some of the staff were very abrupt, we were turned away from one of the bars for lunch, the staff member looked me up and down and assumed I was not suitable, until my wife said we were staying in the hotel, them amazingly we were then offered a table. At dinner we were left waiting 10 minutes before being shown to table, you would expect to be taken to your table much sooner, no where to sit to wait and not even asked if we wanted to wait at the bar and have a drink, you just stand in the corner. At breakfast I ordered my eagerly waited for Arnold Bennett, it arrived and it was so overcooked it was stuck to the pan! Dissapointing, told the waiter and he just mumbled, ordered another coffee and it took 25 minutes to arrive, so service wasn't the best. Minor issues i know but when you pay the big money your paying for service.

Fabulous

This is without doubt the best hotel we have stayed in London. The Christmas decor was spell binding. The front desk were professional and couldn’t do enough to meet our needs. The property oozes class, charm and English Christmas spirit.

We did not receive a glass of fizz on arrival which would have been a nice touch however we did arrive three hours before the allotted checkin time and the hotel accommodated us on arrival. So to conclude I am not sure if a glass of bubbles is standard for those who check in at the correct time.
