Savoy Westend history
The building boom at second half of the 19th century in spirit of secession and historicism had the biggest influence on the looks of the town itself. The villa district in the western part of the town, later on named "Westend", was built at the beginning of nineties in the 19th century. The Westend is very unique and valuable architectonic collection of the World and European architecture. A palace hotel Bristol became the first building. Between the years 1895 - 96 after the two design variants by Wiennese architect Alfred Bayer, the works on Savoy Westend Hotel started in 1897. Villlas Rusalka, Kleopatra and Carlton were built at the same time. The Persian Shah Musaffer - Eddin visited Savoy Westend Hotel in 1902 and the first president of Czechosloavkia between the years 1923 - 33. Some of the villas were transfered into appartment building, kindergartens etc., after the Second World War. In spite of all that, these villas were well enough preserved and saved. Their architectonic nature pleasantly complet the mood of this spa place. Nowadays one can feel somewhat pleasant , layback mood and unforgetable charm of the architecture along with surroundings in this particular part of the town.
The Savoy Westend Hotel welcommed its first guests in June 1st 2005.
