  • Background to the Formation of the Savoy Gastronomes Founded 1971
    Background to the formation of The Savoy Gastronomes Founded 1971 Re-compiled by Founding Member Julian L Payne August 2014 Aim of the Amicale is “To foster the spirit of the Savoy Reception” Historical note To put this aim into context it is necessary to understand the background of the functioning of the Reception Office in earlier years. This department of the hotel had manual control over every arrival, departure and room allocation of the 526 rooms that the Savoy had. It was often the final department that aspiring hoteliers reached as part of their management training, having been through many other stages to reach this pinnacle. The daytime dress code was very formal. Stiff collars, subdued ties, waistcoats, tailcoats and pinstriped trousers, black lace up shoes and black socks. At 4.30 pm when the evening brigade arrived it was Black Tie, dinner jacket, with the two Night Managers wearing the same when they arrived at 11.30 pm. Those on the late brigade often met up in Southampton Street, just across the road, for a cup of tea from a small mobile tea stall and if the evening had been personally financially rewarding a bacon sandwich. Tips were pooled by the whole brigade and divided out at the end of the week on a points system. Brigades comprised of three or four young men who stayed in the department for at least a year; there was a very defined hierarchy with the “lowest” entrant stuck for hours “under the stairs” sharpening pencils or answering the very busy telephones.

  • Mayfair Area Guide
    Mayfair Area Guide Living in Mayfair • Mayfair encompasses the area situated between Oxford Street, Regent Street, Piccadilly and Park Lane, in the very heart of London’s West End, and adjacent to St James’s and its glorious Royal parks to the south. Overview • For over 300 years, Mayfair and St James’s have provided grand homes, luxury goods and services to the aristocracy. The area is characterised by its splendid period architecture, beautiful shop fronts, leading art galleries, auction houses, wine merchants, cosmopolitan restaurants, 5 star hotels and gentleman’s clubs. Did You Know • Mayfair is named after an annual 15 day long May Fair that took place on the site that is now Shepherd Market, from 1686 until 1764. • There is a disused tube station on Down Street that used to serve the Piccadilly line. It was closed in 1932 and was later used by Winston Churchill as an underground bunker during the Second World War. • No. 50 Berkeley Square is said to be the most haunted house in London, so much so that it will give any psychic an electric shock if they touch the external brickwork. • Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was born in a house on Bruton Street and lived in Mayfair during her infancy. Her future husband Prince Philip had his stag night at The Dorchester. • The oldest outdoor statue in London is located above the entrance of Sotheby’s on New Bond Street. The Ancient Egyptian effigy of the lion-goddess Sekmet is carved from black igneous rock and dates to around 1320 BC.

  • Claridge's History 2016
    CLARIDGE’S HISTORY Since first opening its doors Claridge’s has been the destination for fashionable London. Bought in 1854 by Mr and Mrs William Claridge, the hotel received the ultimate accolade in 1860 when Queen Victoria visited Claridge’s to see her friend Empress Eugenie of France. This was the beginning of a tradition of royal visits, which continues to this day. Claridge’s has even been called the annex to Buckingham Palace, as foreign heads of state, invited to dine at the Palace, return hospitality by hosting a banquet at the hotel. In 1893 Claridge’s was bought by Richard d’Oyly Carte, owner of the Savoy, who commissioned C.W. Stephens, famous for designing Harrods, to demolish the original buildings and erect the elegant seven storey hotel, which stands today. The new Claridge’s opened its doors in 1898. 1 By 1929, when London’s bright young things were partying as if their lives depended upon it, Claridge’s was in need of some modernisation. Oswald Milne, a pioneer of the art deco movement was invited in. The entrance, still an awkward, old-fashioned carriage driveway was transformed into the spectacular, elegant lobby, with its revolving door, glamorous mirrors and ‘leaping deer’ lamps which still, 75 years later, looks modern and contemporary. At this time, a new wing was added with 80 new rooms and the beautiful Ballroom. Much of the original furniture, lighting and decoration from this time remain and it is this heritage which gives Claridge’s its title of art deco jewel of Mayfair.
