Venue Testimonials
Striking blend of Edwardian and Art Deco […] From the distinctive stainless steel Savoy sign and Lalique fountain to the marbled Edwardian front hall, the hotel is all about making a statement […] A £220million, three-year restoration completed in 2010 ensured nothing was lost from the original impact.
