“Review of business breakfast at the Savoy”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 13, 2013

I did not stay or eat in the restaurant, but did come into contact with a number of staff members. The meeting was in one of the conference rooms and had the standard fare of croissants and muffins. Sadly nothing more interesting but that was in the hands of the host, not the hotel. Although I did not try one, the muffins looked spectacular. The urn of hotel coffee (usually like mud in most hotels) was a tasty blend. For once, I could have drunk a 2nd cup.

The staff were uniformly charming and friendly. I had no idea where to go. Like quality hotels everywhere, there is no obvious check-in or place to make enquiries. Staff quickly appeared when I stood briefly looking lost. My walking stick was immediately spotted and I was escorted to the lift. Coming out a woman was approaching the stairs with a small overnight case (a pilot case with an extending handle). Someone rushed forward to help and carry it. The doorman was later on station, not distracted, and called a cab for me. This was a step up on Claridges which I reviewed recently after a lunch. The staff were not as spontaneously smiling, helpful and cheery so this was a really good experience. On that comparison, and my limited exposure, it is nevertheless worth an extra star on Claridges

“Savoy Grill worth a visit”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 13, 2013

The ambience and history makes the savoy Grill well worth a visit.
It is reasonably priced and the food is excellent.
The steaks are fantastic full of flavour and superb choice. Maybe a few more fries and vegtables (extra cost) wouldnt go amiss. We will return as we enjoyed the whole experience.

“Fabulous stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2013 via mobile

From the minute we arrived and experienced the seamless valet parking, to the moment our car was returned to us the next day, this was a faultless hotel experience. The staff were friendly and attentive without being over-bearing. Cannot fault the service from everyone we encountered. Afternoon tea was a delight. Dinner at Savoy Grill was also a superb experience. Room was above expectations. Great size, beautifully decorated and impeccably clean. Again, cannot fault it. Nothing at all to say against this hotel from our experience. Made it a birthday to remember for a long, long time!!

“Wonderful......”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2013 via mobile

A couple of quiet drinks in the American Bar followed by a wonderful meal in the Savoy Grill was the perfect wedding present. We shared a chateaubriand which was cooked to perfection followed by an exotic cheesecake and desert wine. Thoroughly recommend this place.

“Restaurant Review - Excellent!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 12, 2013

Fantastic restaurant, amazing service, and the food wass delicious.

We initially went for tea only and ended up ordering a few things from the menu.

It may be expensive, but it is certainly worth it for the quality, experience, and service.
