This is another prestigious project for Phoenix comprising of the renewal, updating, testing and commissioning of electrical services to the external, guestroom, public areas and back of house areas of the hotel.
The Savoy closed in 2007 and refurbishment works were not completed until September 2010. This was one of the biggest hotel refurbishment projects awarded in London in recent years The 263-room landmark hotel, which overlooks the River Thames, first opened its doors to guests in 1889. Now the building with its distinct Art Deco style is restored to combine its former glory with modern amenities.
As part of the refurbishment programme, rooms, suites, corridors and public areas have been renovated and the River Restaurant reopened.
Although thousands of items were auctioned off before the beginning of the refurbishment the hotel's owners carefully chose to keep key pieces that are intrinsic to its history and they have been restored and replaced. |
