Récents 5 avis surThe Savoy, A Fairmont Hotel
The icon of historic London hotels
[Of note, this review is of (somewhat) historical significance due to the renovations due to be completed in 2009.]
Length of stay: 11 nights
Check-in: Taxi from the train station to the hotel. Flawless check in. The porter (Tony) was the consummate professional, offering to pay the taxi for me when the cab had misplaced my fare.
Accomodations: Basic single room befitting a single traveller who came to London to see the sights. The room was clean and functional. VERY nice bathroom with walk-in shower. I agree with earlier reviewers that the hotel in general was beginning to show its wear, especially noticed in the halls.
Dining: I sampled everything from the Savoy Grill to In-Room Dining to the Thames Foyer (for both breakfast and tea) and the American Bar. Impressive all the way around. The tea in particular was excellent and blew away the Ritz; Savoy Grill is a solid one-star Michelin.
Location: London is big enough that I don't know if there is a hotel in a perfect location, but I was within walking distance of many of the theaters (Vaudeville, Savoy, Adelphi) and the Opera. Charing Cross is the nearest Underground station.
Service: Impressive all the way through with some missteps. Turn down service was missed on two of the 11 nights and room service entered a couple of times without notice. The concierge services were notable (reservations at The Square on a moments notice). Tony the porter/bellboy was again very gracious, the master of casual conversation when necessary and professionalism when required.
Cost: Appropriate for the overall experience.
Summary: I look forward to visiting again in the years to come. The hotel was definitely due for refurbishment and I hope many of the staff return.
A bad location and the restaurants overpriced
The Savoy is one of those old grand hotels like the Plaza or Pierre in New York.
But.....
Our room was very old and again on the small side. While we had a lovely view of the Themes River, it is in the West End which is an awful location unless you are going to the theatre every night, which we only did once.
The Grill on the top floor is very good as well as Banquette for something more casual. The only London hotel I've stayed in with an indoor pool which was very handy. The afternoon tea in the lobby lounge was decent and the bar was nice.
What a fantastic room
I stayed here for 2 weeks on a business trip and this hotel was fantastic! I was looked after so well. My room was huge (it was a corner room) and it had a large, updated, white bathroom with 2 sinks. I came home each evening to a fresh bowl of whole fruit that was always something in season. The staff were courteous and helpful. I can't say enough about this hotel. The location was okay. I do recall taking taxis everywhere and would take the tube to/from work each day in Canary Wharf, which took about 30-40 minutes. I felt very spoiled during my stay here
Fantastic
I stayed at the savoy last February with my husband and three year old daughter.On arrival we were greeted by warm welcoming staff who ensured our car was seen to immediatly they even handed our daughter a lovely teddy bear! When we got up to our room we found we had been upgraded to a suite and there were champagne and chocolates waiting for us (my husband had informed the desk that it was my birthday) this was all free of charge.
The hotel is lovely rooms are clean with enormous beds and spacious bathrooms.To top it all off the view of the Thames was fantastic.
Although pricey the Savoy is worth every penny and i cannot wait to return.
Nice Experience in an old hotel
Stayed at the Savoy for two nights in September. The hotel has a nice location, close to public transport. The hotel has an old school glamour to it, but you can also see that some things are worn and outdated. We prefer more modern hotels. The room was a good size and clean. We did the afternoon tea, and that was a nice experience. Overall a good stay.
