Michelin Guide "Smart and discreet... Comfortable bedrooms boast fireplaces and plenty of extras."
Concierge "It "feels like an exclusive British club" at this brick and limestone Georgian building that once housed debutantes attending parties at nearby Buckingham Palace."
Fodor's "Designer credentials and high-tech gadgets are everywhere in the impeccably coordinated black-and-white rooms." Full review
Lonely Planet "This hotel, situated in a lovely old town house opposite Buckingham Palace’s Royal Mews, almost feels like you’re staying in a private club." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A boutique hotel with the feel of a private club. Guests are assigned a personal butler for their stay."
Gayot "For the central but quiet 41 hotel, premium service begins before guests have even set foot through the doors."
Zagat "Champagne at check-in sets the tone at this luxury boutique hotel located down the block from Buckingham Palace."

Rough Guide "Dripping with history, it’s as glamorous can be, with amazing decor throughout, classic bars... a Gordon Ramsay restaurant and gorgeously comfortable rooms."
Michelin Guide "Reopened in 2010 following a 3 year restoration, its luxurious bedrooms and stunning suites come in an Edwardian or art deco style."
Concierge "The part-Edwardian, part–Art Deco building on the Strand in central London is an ideal spot to stay when in town for sightseeing."
Fodor's "One of London's most famous hotels has emerged from a £220 million renovation, and the old girl is looking like a superstar again." Full review

"This was, after all, the original luxury hotel, or at very least the original London luxury hotel, a hotel whose influence is positively Beatlesque, if you’ll forgive the comparison." Full review
Time Out "Loved by generations of visitors for its discreet mix of Edwardian neo-classical and art deco." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This legendary hotel was an afterthought. Richard D’Oyly Carte capitalized on the success of his Savoy Theatre by providing a place to stay."
Star Service "Most guests looking for something special should opt for river-view suites or rooms with the unobstructed views of the Thames, London Eye, Parliament and Big Ben. " Full review
Gayot "Situated close to both the city and the West End... The Savoy enjoys a spectacular position facing the Thames and overlooking Embankment Gardens."
Travel + Leisure "When the Savoy opened in the heart of the theater district in 1889, it introduced many hotel firsts: the use of electricity, en-suite bathrooms, and elevators." Full review
