Have a night on the Savoy
Long synonymous with luxury, the Savoy Hotel
is very particular about its beds. Since 1905,
the Savoy bed has been handmade by craftsmen at
James Edwards, a factory in Drury Lane bought
by the hotel group after the war. Until recently,
this sleep experience could only be experienced
by guests spending a night at the Savoy, The Berkeley,
Claridge's or the Lygon Arms, many of whom, including
the Aga Khan's family, Emma Thompson and Lord
Lichfield, placed orders for beds of their own
before leaving. King Hussan of Morocco ordered
twenty-four after a stay at Claridge's, during
which he slept 'as though on a cloud'. Now this
exclusive bed is more widely available through
Savoir Beds. The beds which take thirty hours
to construct, are made to order and special shapes
can be custom made for antique and four poster
beds, or yachts, for example.
