传奇

百年前的流金岁月 1246 年,萨伏伊公爵彼得在泰晤士河畔的一片土地上建立了萨伏伊城堡,尽管城堡 在 1381 年农奴起义中被付之一炬,但这个地方从此被命名为萨伏伊。1881 年,出生于 伦敦的天才剧院经理人理查德·德欧莱・卡特在此建成萨伏伊剧院,上演由好友诗人吉 尔伯特和作曲家沙利文创作的歌剧。有感于当时美利坚大地上的新型酒店,卡特决心在 伦敦建成一座划时代的酒店,于是在 1889 年 8 月 6 日,耗时 5 年的伦敦萨伏伊酒店落成了。 这是伦敦第一家真正意义上的奢华酒店,她的全电灯照明、升降电梯、传音筒和不 间断冷热水供应的豪华独立浴室宣告着新世代的到来,引起广泛轰动。天才的卡特还做 出一项英明决定,聘请被后人誉为世界酒店之父的凯撒・里兹担任伦敦萨伏伊的第一任 总经理,一举奠定酒店卓越的服务品质。不得不提的是凯撒・里兹带来的法国精英厨师 Auguste Escoffier,他为伦敦萨伏伊引入的法国高级料理毫无疑问地征服了英伦。 在上个世纪之交的伦敦,萨伏伊酒店成为了演绎历史进程的舞台,也为人们带来了 一场惊世繁华梦。1890 年,也就是酒店开业的第二年,奥斯卡・王尔德为其写出名作《无 足轻重的女人》的 Constance Gwladys Robinson 女士召集女性朋友们在伦敦萨伏伊酒店聚餐,

公开争取两性平等,从此以后,女性们在公共场所就餐而无需丈夫陪同终于被社会广为 接受。1899 年起,大画家莫奈在伦敦萨伏伊断断续续住了两年,他钟爱房间窗前的泰晤 士河美景,从同一角度画了 70 多幅画作传于后世。1905 年,美国富豪 George A. Kessler 举 办了青史流芳的一场晚宴,伦敦萨伏伊的中庭被灌入深达四英尺的水,用来漂浮一艘 冈朵拉船,酒店为客人再造了一个小型威尼斯。

The Turn of 1900s – The Golden Age In 1246, Count Peter of Savoy built the Savoy Palace on land by the side of the river Thames. Though the palace was burned to the ground during the Peasant's Revolt of 1381, the name remains to the present day. In 1875, The London-born theatrical impresario Richard D'Oyly Carte built the Savoy Theatre named after the Savoy Palace site on which it was built, to stage his own productions of lyricist William Schwenk Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan's operas. Impressed by the new hotels in America at the time, Carte decided to build an epoch-making hotel in London. After five years of building, The Savoy hotel London opened on 6th August, 1889. The Savoy London was the first true luxury hotel in London, its full lightings by electricity, the first electric lifts, the speaking tubes and the luxurious private bathroom with separated cold and hot water marked the coming of a new era. The genius Richard D'Oyly Carte also made a smart and profound decision to recruit César Ritz, later known as the king of hoteliers, as the first hotel manager who helped the hotel to establish a huge reputation for excellence. A name must be mentioned was Auguste Escoffier, a brilliant French chef brought by César Ritz to Savoy kitchen who introduced the English to the subtlety and delicacy of French haute cuisine. The Savoy London was the platform of the city's history and prosperity during the turn of 1900s. In 1890, Society hostess Lady de Grey gathered a group of female contemporaries to dine at the hotel as a strike for equality, making it socially acceptable for women to gather for meals in public without their husbands. In 1899, Claude Monet took up residence at The Savoy for two months, painting his famous series of views of London and the River Thames. He returned in 1900 and 1901 to continue the work. In 1905, the American millionaire George A. Kessler hosted a "Gondola Party" where the central courtyard of Savoy was flooded to a depth of four feet, and scenery was erected around the walls. Costumed staff and guests re-created Venice.

М

ножество городов и территорий, обретая величие, внезапно или постепенно были оставлены фортуной на задворках мира. Лишь редкие из них находили в себе силы высоко взобраться после тяжелого падения, а некоторые смогли только «зацементировать» прошлое в достояние сегодняшнего дня. И лишь одно место, изредка покачиваясь от ударов судьбы, вот уже почти тысячу лет не сходит со своего пьедестала – это Лондон. Расположение данного города на острове Великобритания определяет его необыкновенность, как, впрочем, и всей страны. Еще в прошлом веке ученые утверждали, что островные государства и народы, которые их населяют, – это всегда совершенно уникальные территории, особенно те, которые имеют претензию на мировое признание. Таковым, безусловно, является Объединенное Королевство – единственная монархия, которая в нашем сознании до сих пор не потеряла свой имперский характер. Лондон настолько известен своими достопримечательностями и самобытным стилем, что может показаться, будто он не в состоя-

нии подать свою вечность в разрезе XXI века и выглядеть свежим на фоне атмосферы готики, сильных традиций и современного урбанистического уклада жизни. В историческом сердце города, на берегу Темзы находится место, которое вобрало в себя глубочайшую суть Лондона и обрело способ его современного выражения. Отельлегенда The Savoy является ярчайшим примером того, как один отель может олицетворять прошлое, настоящее и будущее. The Savoy имеет такую родословную, которая предопределила роль этой гостиницы в современном облике Лондона. В 1246 году на месте сегодняшнего отеля граф Савойский заложил особняк и назвал его Savoy Palace. Спустя 600 лет дворец стал театром Savoy, владельцем которого был столичный импресарио Ричард Дойли Карт. Сколотив целое состояние на оперных постановках, он, движимый искусством и азартом, в 1889 году на месте своей арт-сцены возвел отель, который отличался от всех других. Карт желал объединить идею гостиницы и театра, решив оставить своему детищу имя Savoy. В отель стал приезжать бомонд со всего ми-

ра, и не в последнюю очередь благодаря его управляющему Цезарю Ритцу (впоследствии основатель гостиничной сети Ritz-Carlton) и шеф-повару Огюсту Эскофье. Эти два человека превратили гостиничный бизнес в высокое искусство. The Savoy – первый британский отель класса люкс. Звезды кино и музыки, приезжающие в Лондон со всего мира, предпочитали останавливаться именно здесь. В легендарном ресторане отеля Оскар Уайльд потчевал черепашьим супом своего фаворита Бози, в лобби на знаменитом белом рояле играл Фрэнк Синатра, а Клод Моне, глядя из окна на Темзу, писал картины. Уинстон Черчилль часто трапезничал в отеле во время Второй мировой войны и посещал свой обеденный клуб в The Savoy – The Other Club –вплоть до смерти в 1965 году. The Savoy всегда играл главную роль в спектакле жизни Лондона. В честь первой инаугурации королевы Елизаветы отель дал крупный и громкий коронационный бал. Будучи местом сосредоточения актеров, звезд кино и политиков, The Savoy принимал эффектных персон в лице Софи Лорен, Элизабет Тейлор и Мэрилин Монро. Здесь гостили Луи Армстронг, Марлон Брандо, The Beatles и Боб Дилан. В декабре 2007 года началась самая обширная реновация отеля, которая окончилась в 2010 году. В течение трех лет над его об-

ликом работали более тысячи художников, а итогом всех обновлений, обошедшихся в € 250 млн, стал замечательный синтез прошлого и настоящего. Границы стилей эпохи короля Эдуарда и арт-деко 1920-30-х были расширены, вместив самые последние технологии. Первым гостем обновленного The Savoy стал известный британский актер и телеведущий Стивен Фрай, который прибыл в отель на роллс-ройсе. В отеле The Savoy 268 номеров и suite, оформленных известным французским дизайнером Пьер-Ивом Рошоном. Многие из них сохраняют уникальные детали, такие как камины, люстры из муранского стекла, предметы интерьера знаменитых гостей отеля и имеют прекрасные виды на Темзу или Лондон-сити. Присутствие именитых гостей еще и сейчас чувствуется в Personality Suites. Это девять роскошных номеров, названных в честь постоянных известных гостей отеля и воссозданных согласно их характеру и предпочтениям. А настоящей драгоценностью в короне отеля является Royal Suite площадью 325 кв. метров, неотразимый в своем величии, все шесть комнат которого выходят окнами на Темзу.

Savoy Grill – ресторан-обладатель второй звезды по гиду Мишлена, работающий под управлением известнейшего Гордона Рамзи. Здесь, сидя за любимыми столиками Черчилля, Уайльда, Синатры и Монро, гости отеля наслаждаются блюдами одного из лучших ресторанов столицы. Являясь одним из величайших отельных баров в мире, American Bar – место, где творилась история. Здесь было создано легендарное бар-меню The Savoy Cocktail Book, и верхнее Фойе

отсюда покатилась Европой слава коктейля Dry Martini. Thames Foyer – сердце отеля. Кода-то здесь пел Энрико Карузо и танцевала Галина Уланова. Его интерьер восстановлен во всех деталях и даже несколько дополнен. Вместо обычного потолка в нем установлен стеклянный купол, через который естественный дневной свет заливает новый ажурный павильон зимнего сада, расположенный в центре Thames Foyer. Долгое время в The Savoy подавали эксклюзивный чай Savoy Blend, имеющий репутацию «традиционного, но все же интригующего». Теперь Вы сможете приобрести его наряду с другими эксклюзивными сортами чая, деликатесами и кондитерскими изделиями в новом бутике Savoy Tea. Непревзойденный сервис отеля можно почувствовать еще до приезда в The Savoy благодаря предложению Savoy Suite Welcome для гостей номеров категории suite. Еще до Вашего прибытия в Лондон с Вами свяжется персональный дворецкий, чтобы узнать Ваши предпочтения, подготовить комнату к Вашему приезду и прислать за Вами машину в аэропорт. Дабы ощутить атмосферу Лондона, Вам необходимо окунуться в его вековое величие. Отель The Savoy – единственное место, которое всецело олицетворяет столицу. Он, как искусство, вбирает в себя все, что пережил этот город.

The Ultimate Churchill Experience Circulation: 30,000 To mark the release of the new film, Churchill, in cinemas 16 June, The Savoy has created the Ultimate Churchill Experience

Guests will be welcomed for a one-night stay in the Winston Churchill Personality River View Suite with the opportunity to enjoy a truly memorable Churchill-inspired stay. Winston Churchill, arguably Britain’s greatest Prime Minister and a regular visitor to the hotel throughout his entire life, had a special fondness for The Savoy, and in celebration of this relationship, a suite was named after him. While dining at The Savoy in 1939, Churchill famously got the call telling him he was to be the wartime Prime Minister. Having previously founded a private dining club at The Savoy, “The Other Club” in 1910, he attended its dinners in a private capacity as often as possible until his death – in fact his final public appearance was at such a dinner in 1964. During the Second World War he lunched at The Savoy so frequently with members of his cabinet, that a suite was permanently reserved for him to enjoy one of his famous power-naps. The Ultimate Churchill Experience includes a one-night stay with breakfast, Churchill welcome amenity, dinner at Simpson’s In The Strand, cocktails in the Beaufort Bar, a Churchill inspired Historical Tour, and two tickets to the Churchill War Rooms. Available for reservations from 01 August to 30 September, made by 30 August, priced from £1,995 per package, based on two people sharing, additional nights available on request.

During the Second World War he lunched at The Savoy so frequently with members of his cabinet, that a suite was permanently reserved for him to enjoy one of his famous power-naps. The Ultimate Churchill Experience includes a one-night stay with breakfast, Churchill welcome amenity, dinner at Simpson’s In The Strand, cocktails in the Beaufort Bar, a Churchill inspired Historical Tour, and two tickets to the Churchill War Rooms. Available for reservations from 01 August to 30 September, made by 30 August, priced from £1,995 per package, based on two people sharing, additional nights available on request.

The 8 Best Seafood Restaurants In London

From Porthilly oysters at Bonnie Gull to moules marinières at Randall & Aubin, we've got you sorted Kaspar's

The staff at Kaspar's Seafood Bar & Grill will give you one of the warmest receptions in London whether you are staying there or not, and the menu gains top marks from top to bottom (we particularly recommend the smoked fish selection). As for the oysters, a dozen for £28 is surprisingly good value given the luxurious settings. You get six from Jersey, which are light and delicious, and six from West Mersea, which have a more meaty texture. Dig in. The Savoy Hotel, Strand, London, WC2R 0EU, 020 7420 2111, kaspars.co.uk

Bar of the week: American bar at the Savoy

Don't even look at the menu. Because this is what you should order: The Blue Alpin. Yes, it's £50, and yes, that is ridiculous, but for twenty minutes of flawless drinking – a rarity, actually – it's worth it. Made up of Johnnie Walker Blue Label whisky, Geisha coffee cordial, Cocchi Riserva, La Venaria Reale vermouth and Moorland mist, this drink – served short – is the Old Fashioned you never had. Ok, now, for your second cocktail, you can look at the menu. Specifically: the American bar's new Coast to Coast summer menu, which takes guest on a liquid journey through Great Britain from Kent up to Scotland, via London. Cocktails are inspired by each location and its people, and divided into sections, such as Castle Rock, which centres on sweeter notes of jasmine and honey, and Sherwood Forest, focussing on rich, amber spirits and infusions of pine and birch. For something a little lighter, consult the Garden of England and Art Deco sections. The Sapphire Jubilee from Art Deco, with Star of Bombay gin, Pineau de Charentes, violet liqueur and champagne, is an indulgent refresher. Time your tipple(s) for the live piano, which starts at 6pm, before heading to Kasper's Grill come eight. If you've got any cash left over, that is.


Monthly Unique Browsers: 27,255,682 There’s also, clearly, a recognition among New York’s taste-makers that, increasingly, London is the primary global food and drink capital that can rival theirs. After all, The Dead Rabbit may be at the top, but London has the highest number of bars in the World’s 50 Best Bars list, with five entries in the top 10: the American Bar at the Savoy is No 2, Dandelyan is No 3, the Connaught Bar is No 4, with The Gibson at No 6 and Happiness Forgets at No 10. It also has plenty of restaurants in the World’s 50 Best, among them The Clove Club, The Ledbury and Dinner. ‘London is the No 1 city in the world for restaurants,’ says Philip Hamilton, CEO of Aquavit London. ‘I just knew that Aquavit would be greatly received here.’


London's chicest cocktails

Monthly Unique Browsers: 27,255,682 Douglas Blyde has a front row seat for some well-tailored cocktails ‘Simplicity is the keynote of all true elegance,’ opined Coco Chanel. Hers is a tenet transferable to chic cocktails, where a core spirit acts as the main article, adorned with complementary, or classily contrasting, accessories of vermouth, bitters and perfume-like essences… The Savoy’s Beaufort Bar renders explicit the relationship betwixt cocktails and couture. Guests are lit almost as under a spotlight, with views to the former cabaret stage that now curtains a tall bar. Ordered from an illustrated, limited run menu book evoking a grown-ups’ version of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, the ‘Height of Fashion’ cocktail takes inspiration from the hotel’s red lift. According to bartender Alex Walker, young porter Guccio Gucci once conveyed guests’ leather steamer trunks in this ‘ascending room’. Inspired by the hotel’s opulent surroundings, Gucci subsequently formed the eponymous fashion brand in 1920s Florence. Negroni-like, Walker’s libation collages cognac, Campari, Aperol and vermouth with a secret tincture evoking limousine leather. The result is smoothly powerful: an iron fist in a velvet glove, best sipped in glad rags while beholding the bar’s monthly burlesque show.

The Savoy Collection II: Age of Discovery - £350

Monthly Unique Browsers: 836,826,460 How about a whisky cocktail that has travelled the world? No, seriously. We all know the famous Savoy in London, but did you know about their exclusive whisky and cocktail ranges within the renowned ‘Savoy Collection’. The Age of Discovery is a uniquely blended limited edition cocktail that has been barrel-aged on board Cunard's flagship Queen Mary 2 during a 41,000-nautical mile and four-month long world voyage. It returned from its journey at sea in May 2016, being bottled within the Beaufort Bar. So, what’s in it? Well, how about a distinctive blend of Savoy Select Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel, Jack Daniel’s Old No.7 and Bacardi 8, with Spice Trail Madeira, Dubonnet, Martini Riserva Rubino and Earl Grey and Cocoa nib bitters. Sounds delicious. Buy it directly from The Savoy Hotel.

The best places to go for afternoon tea in London Afternoon tea at The Savoy is practically an institution and their beautiful glass domed Thames Foyer is the perfect setting for it. Their multi-course treat features savoury delights such as a selection of finger sandwiches ranging from the staple egg salad to mozzarella, tomato and pesto options. It wouldn’t be a proper afternoon tea without some tea and scones, which come with a hefty helping of clotted cream, lemon curd and preserve to slather on top. Curated by their Executive Pastry Chef Ludwig Hely, they have a special Spring Afternoon Tea promotion running till the end of June – think raspberry macarons, tiramisu eclairs and more.

On Monday July 3 the overheated among us should scuttle down to the Savoy’s Strand-based coffee shop, Melba, when they’re launching an ace-sounding treat: the icéclair.

It’s an ice cream/éclair hybrid, if that wasn’t already obvious. Light choux pastry – quite the trend (https://www.timeout.com/london/blog/pudding-bo߾ns-chin-chin-labs-are-opening-a-dessert-club-in-soho-041917) at the moment (https://www.timeout.com/london/restaurants/londons-most-showstopping-desserts) – is 韛lled with ice cream (Sicilian pistachio, salted caramel, wild berry, that kind of thing), then slathered with sauce (choc, caramel, berry again) and given a milk or white chocolate glaze. Then it’s time for toppings, which include such sugary delights as popping candy, cookie dough and candy 躐oss. In short, they look banging – and they’ll doubtless taste just as good.

What: Royal Cocktails Why: This June will mark the Queen’s Sapphire Jubilee – that’s a whopping 65 years on the throne – and we will be celebrating in true regal style at The Savoy’s American Bar. Head Bartender Erik Lorincz has created five new cocktails for the occasion, each inspired by royal events like the birth of Prince George to the wedding of Charles and Diana. We like the sound of the Sapphire Jubilee Fizz the most; Star of Bombay gin, Oleo Sacharum, Violet Liqueur, Pineau de Charentes and Champagne. And yep, it’s blue. Launching on Saturday 3rd June Where: The Savoy, Strand, London Website: www.fairmont.com

LONDON’S BEST MARTINIS Just Opened London’s ‘Best of’ series covers a combination of recently opened venues and established London favourites, to make sure you get the full lowdown on where to spend your time and hard-earned cash.

9. The Ultimate Martini Experience at The Savoy’s American Bar The beautiful and just-a-bit-glam American Bar at The Savoy has occupied a starring role in cocktail history since its opening in the late 19th century, with various supporting roles from the likes of punters such as Frank Sinatra and cocktail royalty cementing it as the longest surviving American Bar in London. Indeed, the Hanky Panky cocktail of Italian vermouth, dry gin and Fernet Branca all stirred together and garnished with orange rind was invented here by Ada ‘Coley’ Coleman – essentially a martini. Otherwise, we strongly suggest you go all out with their Ultimate Martini Experience where Grey Goose Vodka is stirred down with Savoy bespoke bitters and vermouth and served in fine crystal glasses. You’ll be able to choose from garnishes of citrus peel, caviar-stuffed olive or homemade pickled olive. Oh, and you’ll be needing the six Jersey rock oysters to wash it all down. A fair price at £60, no?

chin chin: national martini day on june 19th Well, who knew? SEEN is all for festivals related to James Bond’s favourite tipple. Indeed you could be forgiven for thinking that London is awash with gin at the moment, but then the capital has a fine history and tradition related to gin that goes back centuries. Thankfully, these days we have no need to drink gin because the water quality is so awful (though doubtless some would disagree) and there are several excellent establishments around town where you can quench your thirst on June 19th and remind yourselves that you are drinking history. Rather like JB in ‘Casino Royale’ SEEN doesn’t give a damn whether you have your martinis shaken OR stirred, just go and drink one from the American Bar at the Savoy. Harry Craddock, head bartender at The Savoy’s American Bar during the 1920s and 30s, is responsible for making the martini what it is today. Having been included in the ‘World’s Best 50 Bars’, this luxurious spot will be perfect for martinilovers looking for a sophisticated and classic tipple.

FOUR News | Tippling Club Racks up Three top 10 Nominations in the Tales of the Cocktail's Spirited Awards The award winning Sensorium Menu at Tippling Club in Singapore is turning heads this summer... Tippling Club has been nominated as top 10 finalists across three categories in the 2017 Tales of the Cocktail’s Spirited Awards – World’s Best Cocktail Menu; International Bartender of the Year; and Best International Restaurant Bar. The finalists for each category were selected from over a thousand incredibly qualified nominations, by committees consisting of the industry’s most respected professionals and led by Spirited Awards chairperson Charlotte Voisey. Making its debut on the World’s Best Cocktail Menu category is Tippling Club’s memory­triggering Sensorium Menu, an olfactory drinking experience that is delivered through 12 unique scents. It joins the ranks of reputed cocktail institutions from around the world, including London’s The Savoy and New York City’s The Dead Rabbit, among others. Launched in September 2016 by head bartender Joe Schofield and chef­owner Ryan Clift, the aroma­forward menu has since won the plaudits of industry experts and bartending authorities alike, paving the way for Schofield as he takes his place among this year’s International Bartender of the Year top 10 contenders. The Sensorium Menu started as a simple idea a year ago, and has since evolved into a full­fledged cocktail program that is truly one­of­a­kind. Being recognized by Tales of the Cocktail is an incredible affirmation of the hard work and dedication that the team has tirelessly invested in championing our craft. I am honored to be able to lead them in flying the Tippling flag far and wide,” enthuses Schofield, who joined Tippling Club in early 2016. Adjoining Tippling Club’s award­winning bar program is an equally lauded modern gastronomy restaurant—helmed by chef­owner Ryan Clift—which has been putting forth innovative, ultra­progressive cuisine and cocktail pairings to the palates of local gastronomes since 2008. Tippling Club’s wide­reaching reputation as both a dining and drinking destination continues to precede itself; returning as a finalist in the Best International Restaurant Bar category for a third consecutive year. The three Spirited Awards® nominations are the latest addition to Tippling Club’s growing mantel of bartending accolades, alongside four recent top billings in The Bar Awards Singapore for Best Restaurant Bar, Most Creative Cocktail Bar, Best Cocktail Bar, and Bartender of the Year; and an upcoming placement in Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2017, to be announced in the later half of June­ 2017 is a monumental milestone for Tippling Club. The nominations are a timely testament to the great strides we have taken over the years, and will go a long way in inspiring the next chapter of Tippling Club,” attests Clift. Other Singapore­based Spirited Awards 2017 finalists include ATLAS (World’s Best Spirits Selection, Best New International Cocktail Bar); Manhattan Bar at The Regent (Best International Hotel Bar); Steve Schneider of Employees Only (International Bartender of the Year); and Zdenek Kastanek (Best Bar Mentor). The top four Spirited Awards nominees in each category will be announced via an exclusive Tales of the Cocktail Facebook Live broadcast on Saturday, 17 June, at 3:00AM SGT. Winners will be announced at the Spirited Awards ceremony in New Orleans on Saturday, 22 July, during the 15th Annual Tales of the Cocktail.

THE BEAUFORT BAR AT SAVOY

LET’’S START WITH A DRINK Words by Baldwin Ho

When it comes to cocktails, London has some of the most sumptuous and innovative offerings; it would not be outof-place to call London the cocktail capital of the world. For most, luxury has connotations of involving great expense, but here we examine not just the top hotel bars but also the hidden speakeasies where luxury also means using extremely rare ingredients––a guest list that exudes exclusivity. Beaufort Bar at the Savoy Top of the list for places to visit is the Art Deco, palatial Beaufort Bar at The Savoy, where plenty of genuine gold shimmers in the atmospheric surroundings. Cocktails don’t get more indulgent than their Age of Discovery: it has been matured in a hand-selected, three hundred-litre Jack Daniel’s barrel whilst stationed on

board the Queen Mary 2, during her forty-one thousand nautical mile world voyage. It was left on the open deck in thirty-nine ports of call in twenty-seven countries to pick up the variations in temperatures, humidity and sunlight to produce one of the most complex Jack Daniel’s cocktails you will ever taste. They have also launched an Illustrated Tunnel Book Menu that celebrates the greatest guests to have stayed at the iconic hotel. The Showgirl is a celebration of the time Marilyn Monroe took tea at the hotel and uses the very best components including Grey Goose vodka and Dom Pérignon champagne. The Impressionist is inspired by Claude Monet’s admiration of foggy London––a mysterious ‘fog’ seeps out of your cocktail. There is also the Harewood House Rum cocktail, which features vintage, eighteenthcentury Bajan rum from its original glass-blown bottles. It costs a mere £12,000 per serving.

5 of the Most Historic Hotel Bars Around the World

Monthly Unique Browsers: 3,685,963 If you’re looking for a posh stay in London, consider The Savoy, a five-pearl grand dame that opened in 1889 on the Strand. Its American Bar is one of the most iconic hotel bars in the world, not only for its guests (like Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra), but for its famous bartenders, including Ada “Coley” Coleman and Harry Craddock, who compiled 750 recipes for the “Savoy Cocktail Book” in 1930. The bar’s name came from the fact that it was one of the earliest bars in Europe to serve American-style cocktails.

The American Bar The recently-launched Coast to Coast menu at the Savoy’s American Bar takes guests on a journey across Britain, one cocktail at a time. It’s the perfect spot for cocktails! The term ‘American Bar’ refers to a bar serving mixed or ‘American’ style drinks, more commonly known as cocktails. From South to North, each drink is a vivid reflection of the country’s landscapes, folklore and illustrious history, featuring herbs and common ingredients from the area. Beginning in the Garden of England in Kent and finishing at Castle Rock in Scotland, the menu comprises five ‘stops’. So that Vicky and I could get the full experience, we sampled a cocktail from each one. I recommend you do the same. The journey is like being taken back to childhood fairy stories at bedtime – the most magical time. Except this time you’re an adult, it involves booze, and real education about the great UK. The menu actually looks like an old English story book, with little illustrations to accompany the demystifying cocktail glossary.

Fifteen years ago, Toru Machida was simply a young man with a high school degree and a heart full of London dreams. He had just moved to the British city from Tokyo after all. This young man landed a stint as a porter and worked his way up in the hospitality industry. Three years ago, Toru Machida became the Head Concierge of The Savoy. The discerning traveler would never turn down a chance to stay in elegant English Edwardian rooms, mere steps away from Covent Garden or dine at Gordon Ramsay’s famous grill, known to churn out great charcoal grilled Chateaubriand with pommes soufflés. The Savoy, London, lets you do both, from the northern bank of the River Thames. Head Concierge Toru Machida recently told Blouin Artinfo about his personal favorites in London and top recommendations for those seeking the best of the English capital city. Edited excerpts:

What are your recommendations for must­visit places in London and why? As a concierge, I am constantly exploring London and its surroundings, learning about what this amazing city has to offer. I have to be up­ to­date and knowledgeable about new openings and theater productions, especially as The Savoy is in the heart of Theatreland. A personal favorite is Sir John Soane’s Museum. It is just up the road in Lincoln’s Inn Fields. It’s an historic house, museum and library of the eccentric 19th century architect and collector Sir John Soane, and is filled with extraordinary pieces of arts and antiques collected from all over the world. What restaurants, bars, and cafes would you recommend in London and why? I may sound biased but our luxury restaurant Kaspar’s Seafood Bar and Grill is perfect for couples, families and serves fresh, seasonal dishes that are guaranteed to entertain anyone’s appetite. In addition to Kaspar’s, I would recommend Umu, Ginza Onodera and ROKA; each of these restaurants reminds me of the true and authentic Japanese food served in my home country. Where would you go and what would you do if you had a free morning or afternoon in London? A guest once told me that there is no place in the world quite like London and he is absolutely right! I dedicate my free mornings or afternoons to exploring all the hidden gems that London has to offer. Some of my favorite spots to savor London include walking in and around Kensington Gardens or enjoying afternoon tea at The Orangery at Kensington Palace.

Where would you head to in London for the best shopping and what would you buy? The Savoy is ideally located for some of London’s finest shopping opportunities. Liberty, a very British store is located in a Tudor­style building constructed from the timbers of two ships — HMS Impregnable and HMS Hindustan. Just off Regent Street, this store is a wonderland filled with innovative, iconic fabric prints, exotic flowers and luxury brands. With four floors, there are countless treasures waiting to be discovered! Where would you recommend people stay (hotels, B&Bs) when they visit London? The Savoy of course! Located in the heart of the city, The Savoy is just a stone’s throw away from the hustle and bustle of Theatreland or the cosmopolitan Covent Garden. We are very excited to welcome our sister property, Raffles Hotels & Resorts, which will be opening a hotel in the Grade II listed Old War Office in Whitehall. We look forward to having two exciting and iconic landmark destination hotels in London! What are the best places to see and buy art in London? If you are looking for a unique and special gift for someone, I would suggest paying a visit to London Glassblowing, the UK’s foremost contemporary glass art studio. You can watch the expert makers at work and see your beautiful, bespoke creations come to life. What are some of London’s best secret places that everyone should discover? In a small alley called Carting Lane, which runs between The Savoy and the Shell Mex building, is London’s last sewer lamp. A Victorian invention, the flame in the lamp burns 24 hours a day, lit by vapors from the sewers below. What are the best places to see live bands or musicians in London and why? In London, we are exceedingly fortunate to have so many iconic and historic music venues at our doorstep. A particular favorite location of mine is The Royal Albert Hall, the home of BBC Proms since 1941. This treasured venue is guaranteed to provide an unrivalled and magical music performance for our guests to remember. What are the best spots for experiencing London’s nightlife after spending the day at an art fair? London comes alive at night. The Box in Soho is the perfect spot to dance the night away while enjoying some mysterious theatrical performances and imaginative cabaret acts — it really is a visual delight for the senses! What projects are you currently working on/involved in? At The Savoy, we always have exciting initiatives in the pipeline. One project which we are currently working on is developing the ‘perfect’ and seamless arrival experience for guests. We are in the planning stage of transforming our front hall to meet the expectations of a modern luxury traveler. Click on the slideshow to take a look at London
