A British icon since 1889, The Savoy has once again taken its place at the heart of London after a £100 million restoration, seamlessly blending elements of the original and the new while the stunning English Edwardian and Art Deco interiors sparkle with timeless elegance and glamour. Make the most of your stay at the exemplary Savoy with dinner at the one and only Savoy Grill, headed by legendary chef Gordon Ramsay, or treat yourself to the tastes of England with afternoon tea at the Thames Foyer while enjoying the lovely sounds of a pianist's serenade. In France, Raffles Le Royal Monceau offers the elegance, prestige, luxury, and hospitality that have long been signs of high European culture; the perfect accompaniment to your opulent stay is an exclusive tour of the Louvre Museum, where you'll get a true taste for the artistic creativity and cultural passions of France.
Embodying The Savoy ethos of 'perfect service, naturally', The Savoy redefines luxury for the 21st century. The guestrooms are the last word in style, luxury and discreet technology with stunning views of London and the River Thames. With an enviable location on the River Thames, the hotel is literally steps away from some of the world's finest theatres, museums and opera houses. Its proximity to the city means The Savoy has the ideal location for a trip to London. From the Savoy butlers to the hotel concierges, from housekeeping to the bartenders, every member of The Savoy's team is on hand to ensure your stay becomes a treasured memory. The Savoy continues its tradition of culinary excellence with Gordon Ramsay's Savoy Grill, which is at once elegant and theatrical, contemporary and classic. A modern menu made up of inspired time-honored British and French dishes suitably befits this iconic and historic dining room. Afternoon tea is the quintessential London experience, an enduring custom where you can choose from a range of teas served with finger sandwiches, homemade scones with clotted cream and jam, and a mouth-watering selection of seasonal cakes and pastries.
Learn about the history and glory of beloved London as you visit the attractions, including Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Covent Garden, the House of Parliament, and Hyde Park. St. Paul's Cathedral is just a short walk from the hotel, as is the famed Oxford Street, with dozens of shops and boutiques lining the road, and Buckingham Palace, where you can witness the timeless ceremony of the Changing of the Guard.
Start your escape in London and arrive in Paris rested and raring to go, right in the heart of the action! Traveling with Eurostar is comfortable, easy and hassle-free with no excess baggage headaches or liquid restrictions. Just stretch out in your spacious Business Premier seats and enjoy the view as you speed to the City of Light in style! From the corner cafés of Montmartre to the lavender fields of Provence, France has something for everyone.
Only in Paris, steeped in history, passion, beauty, and l'art de vivre, could the legendary Le Royal Monceau hotel begin yet another life in a refined new design that recalls its origins as it appeals to the contemporary traveler, who desires not merely a place to stay but a place to feel truly welcome. At the heart of the vibrant and grandiose neighborhood of Paris, Le Royal Monceau is a playground for intellectuals, party-goers, dancers, epicureans, and other adventurous souls and dreamers. Only the charm of the French phrase "je-ne-sais-quoi" can begin to describe the singular and sensational experience that awaits you at Le Royal Monceau in the 8th arrondissement of Paris. Residents are treated like close family, a few doorsteps away from "the most beautiful avenue in the world", the Champ-Elysées, and the Arc de Triomphe.
A visit to the Louvre is essential to any Paris trip, but an intimate privately tour of the Louvre. Your guide will lead you on this memorable tour through the most significant collections, weaving a timeline of art and history along the way in this fortress-turned-palace-turned-museum. Skip all the lines as you study the impressive artifacts! From the Egyptian works, the Mesopotamian relics, to the Greek and Roman sculptures, the antiquities section is truly awe-inspiring. At the heart of the Louvre are the grand galleries of Italian paintings, masterpieces conceived and created by da Vinci, Veronese and Titian.
