*** As of 15thDecember 2007 the Savoy hotel will be completely closed for a refurbishment, reopening in 2009.****Located on The Strand in the heart of the West End theatre district, The Savoy offers spectacular views of the river Thames. This landmark hotel opened in 1889 and is still considered to be the place to stay in London. The hotel's 263 rooms and suites, with Art Deco touches throughout, are elegantly appointed yet offer an extensive array of modern amenities. From palatial meeting rooms to the facilities in the Fitness Gallery, The Savoy is truly an exceptional hotel. As would be expected from a hotel whose first chef was the legendary Auguste Escoffier, The Savoy's selection of restaurants is legendary. The inspired cuisine of chef/patron Marcus Wareing can be enjoyed in the Michelin starred Savoy Grill and the more informal Banquette. A stay at The Savoy would not be complete without a visit to nearby Simpson's-in-the-Strand where traditional British food at its finest is served. The theatres, opera, ballet and shopping of Covent Garden are located nearby. Whether for business or pure pleasure, a stay at The Savoy entails the ultimate in gracious luxury, attentive service and an incomparable location. The Savoy has been at the centre of London life since it first opened over a century ago. As a landmark business in the heart of the community The Savoy knows how important it is to give something back and is proud to actively support the following good causes.

The hotel is situated just off the Strand five minutes from Charing Cross mainline and underground station and in the heart of London's bustling West End, Theatreland, Trafalgar Square, Covent Garden and some of London's best shopping areas are all nearby.
