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
Jetsetter "Legendary 1889 Edwardian hotel near the Thames with two historic bars and its fair share of Art Deco glamour." Full review
i
Choose from sleek, sultry Art Deco or light, frilly Edwardian.
Lonely Planet "Built on the site of the old Savoy Palace in 1889, the Savoy has welcomed the high, the mighty and the not untalented." 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."

Michelin Guide "Two Victorian houses with open, modern lobby and secluded, south-facing garden terrace. Bedrooms come in bold, warm colours; 'Garden Rooms' have their own patios."
Frommer's "Proof that London high style doesn't always come with a high price tag... All are bright and airy with large windows and simple lines, but we prefer the garden units with their own private patios." Full review
Concierge "Outside, there's little to distinguish this white stucco Victorian from the many downscale hotels along this none-too-beautiful stretch of Cromwell Road, but inside, it's instant cheer."
Fodor's "Despite being on the notoriously traffic-clogged Cromwell Road, this excellent little place is one of the best boutique hotels in this part of London." Full review
Lonely Planet "With an understated-cool design ethos, things are muted, dapper and more than a tad minimalist at 'budget boutique' 40-room Rockwell." Full review
Time Out "The Rockwell aims for relaxed contemporary elegance – and succeeds magnificently." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Housed in a beautifully restored Victorian terrace, The Rockwell is owned by an architect, and it shows in the stunning decor and the glass bridge that links the hotel to its courtyard garden."
Travel + Leisure "The epitome of understated chic, the Rockwell welcomes guests in a cozy reception lounge outfitted with an elegant library, vibrant flowers and even a kids' playing area." Full review
BlackBook "Look no further than the Rockwell if you are seeking out cozy lux hotel for your stay in London."
Zagat "Set inside converted townhouses in South Kensington, this high-end boutique hotel offers contemporary rooms and split-level suites."
