The Savoy | A Fairmont Hotel

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 268 rooms and suites, with Art Deco and Edwardian touches throughout, are elegantly appointed yet offer an extensive array of modern amenities. As of December 15, 2007 The Savoy closed to undergo a £100 million restoration. The hotel will reopen in 2010. During this time period we recommend Swissôtel The Howard as an alternative.
