London is renowned for its wide range of art and theatre from the national galleries to West End shows. London is also home to a fantastic selection of award-winning restaurants and shopping venues, from markets to the famous department stores of Selfridges and Harrods. The city boasts four world heritage sites: the Palace of Westminster and Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, Maritime Greenwich and the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Mobile Phones: If you're visiting London from abroad, don't forget that the UK dialling code is +44, which replaces the 0. All the numbers in this guide are written as +44 (0)xxx xxx xxxx. If you are using a US or Canadian phone, just dial +44 xxx xxx xxxx leaving off the first 0. From a UK mobile (cell phone) or landline, dial 0xxx xxx xxxx. Using your phone may cost you more than it does at home. Roaming charges vary between countries and networks, so check your network's roaming charges before you travel. Emergency Services In the UK in emergencies, call 999 for the fire, ambulance or police services. (911 will also work.) In a non-emergency, call the police on 101. Weather During February and March, it is worth being prepared for the cold and wet weather. We recommend you bring a warm, waterproof coat and an umbrella. Average temperature in February is 40 oF/5 oC, but can drop as low as 32 oF/0 oC, and even colder at night. Other tips: In the UK, plugs have a three pronged connection (seen below). Airport and high street shops will sell adaptors. Generally, converters are only needed for items such as shavers and hair dryers, but Savoy rooms provide both for your convenience. 4 Travel to and from Heathrow By Taxi By Heathrow Express & London Underground We recommend booking a taxi in advance from The Heathrow Express runs four times an hour. Heathrow to the Savoy. (Journey time, 30-60 minutes; (Journey time, 15 minutes; cost, £25-28) estimated cost, £40 for pre-booked).

(Average cost- £20-£30) 5 Area around the Savoy 6 Travel within London London is easy to travel around whether walking, using the iconic red double-decker buses, the Undergound (Tube) or the famous black cabs. By Public Transportation On the buses and the Tube, it is possible to buy single journey tickets, however it is much better value to buy an ‘Oyster Card’ at the start of your stay, and then ‘top it up’ with money as you need it. Just ‘tap in’ when you enter the Underground stations, and ‘tap out’ as you leave. ’Tap in’ only when boarding a bus; there is no need to tap out. There is a £5 initial payment for an Oyster Card, which includes a deposit and some journey fare, however it does make individual journeys less expensive and more convenient. At the end of your trip it is possible to return the Oyster Card and reclaim the deposit. There is also a daily maximum charge when using the Oyster Card that does not apply when purchasing single tickets. The Oyster Card is valid on all London buses, the Underground, most local trains, the Overground and the District Light Rail (DLR). Transport for London have a good website for planning journeys http://www.tfl.gov.uk/ and all tube stations have London Underground maps that you can pick up. By Taxi Taxis can be found at taxi ranks around the city, or it is possible to hail a black cab as they pass by. Taxis will only take cash. Be aware to hail only recognisable black cabs, with the ‘Taxi’ sign illuminated to show they are available. For your own safety, do not use unmarked cars. The free app ‘Citymapper’ is a useful to find out the best transport routes and times for journeys across the city. http://citymapper.com/ Walking London is a pedestrian-friendly city. It is easy to walk around central London, quite often even faster than taking public transportation for short journeys and offers the opportunity to take in the sites as you travel. Look for posted signs, directing you to notable locations, and maps around the city, which include walking times. While it is not illegal to ‘jay-walk’, it is advisable to wait for the ‘green man’ to signal that it is safe to cross. On the ground at cross-walks you will often find a reminder of which direction to look for on-coming, which can be quite helpful, as traffic may be coming from the opposite side from the one you are used to.

  • 2014-15 Sustainability Report
    Historic Royal Palaces Sustainability Report 2014/15 Sustainability Report 2014/15 Sustainability information is reported freely by Historic Royal Palaces although publication is not required under the Royal Charter, contract with the Department of Culture, Media & Sports and Charity regulations we are governed by. This is the third year we are publishing our records and actions on the sustainability topic. However there are still limitations with the availability at a granular level and the accuracy of HRP’s sustainability data. We continue to work with all stakeholders to improve data gathering process and quality of information. Energy consumption figures are based on billed amounts and are therefore subject to adjustments in subsequent periods. 1. Our approach to sustainability Historic Royal Palaces is committed to the values of sustainability in the work it undertakes to help everyone explore the palaces and estates it looks after and in the management of its operations. Conservation is at the heart of HRP’s mission, so managing the palaces and the estate with as little environmental impact as possible is important to us. Through our conservation work, we give our buildings, interiors, collections, designed historic landscapes and natural landscapes, species and habitats a future as long and valuable as their past, for the benefit of future generations. We strive to embed sustainability in HRP’s work culture by launching initiatives that encourage good sustainability behaviours with staff (i.e. switching off electronic equipment, setting computers & printers settings to minimise paper waste, improving recycling facilities) and by ensuring that sustainability thinking forms part of project planning mandates and is delivered at a local level through the budgeting process (i.e.

  • 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.
