We pulled up outside the Savoy and were met by the Doormen who instantly made us feel welcome and very special, we were taken inside where we were greeted by a member of staff who already had our names and room details.
We had a quick tour of the lobby area with bars and restaurants and were then taken to our room on the 7th floor. The room was fantastic with views over The Strand and the entrance to the hotel. Luggage arrived very quickly and our request for a DVD player (we planned on a relaxing afternoon watching a movie) was dealt with within 10 minutes.
The room was comfortable with a separate dressing area and a fantastic bathroom. Our pillow preference was checked on arrival too.
We visited the American bar for delicious cocktails and had a reservation in the Riverside Restaurant for Christmas Dinner. The service in the restaurant was again superb staff were attentive but not intrusive, but were friendly and professional rather than stuffy. The menu was good and the food was delicious. There are lots of seating areas with open fires, away from the restaurants. Again making it very relaxing.
After a beautiful meal and good champagne and wine we retired to our room, the bed has to be the most comfortable I have ever slept in! Next morning we joined the Riverside Restaurant again for a delicious breakfast before checking out and being reunited with our car and the ever friendly doormen
