The Savoy: Checking into History

I was a chef there in my early 20s for a couple of years, what an experience, the work was hard and the days were long... but, i loved it.

Greatest part of this feature,was them interviewing their legend bartender... what a national treasure he is! 😃

Had beautiful memories of the Savoy hotel stayed there a few times. You forgot to mention the most important fact; it has the only right lane drive in the whole United Kingdom what I thought was unique.

This is a terrific video! Superbly informative. Thanks so much!!

Great informative videos and love the humour thank you.

I worked at the Savoy from 1976 til 1979 most at the time at the Savoy Grill, it was a fantastic hotel at the time and the service delivery was out of this world. The Savoy Hotel London gave me the edge that opened many door world wide! Thanks Savoy Hotel ad Friends

BRAVO !

I know a guy who makes retrofitted appliances a my God there is a reason why the stuff is awesome not only did it last long if you took care of it but the Styles we're honestly phenomenal not that I don't appreciate some of the more Sleek modern looks and he's able to combine that but there's something about the older fashion that has so much charm to it and because he's been able to work on these models using future technology he made them a lot more efficient because unfortunately some of these things had problems but it almost seems more rare in comparison to what we have to deal with a lot more simplistic depending on the appliance the same guy has a cousin who works on antique model cars and planes so in many ways it's a family business

I don't understand the complaints about Mr. Wilde. In those days 2/6 was a hell of a tip for a bellboy, even at the Savoy.

"Sorry Mr Hudson is this not what you ordered?" I saw what you meant there!

I LOVE IT

Visited the Savoy last month: sumptuous, a bubble isolated from the real world. One curious observation, though: Adjacent to the elegant entrance to the exquisite WCs is a grand portrait of our late Queen. Why there? Is it a subtle joke, linking one throne with another, perhaps?

Top notch !!!!

WOW "Sorry Mr. Hudson is it not what you ordered"

6:08 putting your thumb onto the surface of the plate is bad form and not seen as sanitary. (retired corporate waiter)

why is suite 41 no longer open ?

The Savoy has been made by Cesar Ritz & Auguste Escofier.

“Film stars, celebrity chefs, fraudsters, murderers, sex criminals” were the last three really necessary? I feel like they’re kinda implied in the first two items on the list. Heck, they probably could’ve just left it at “celebrities” and we would’ve filled in the blanks.

Savoy...a great hotel....

Long before the Savoy, there were other great hotels in Switzerland and France.
