Paying tribute to its lively past, Alexander Bar is named after the original owner of the hotel first built on the site in the 1880s. This was reincarnated in 1926 as The Hotel Alexander. Alexander Bar is now the elegant ground floor attraction at The Savoy Hotel Little Collins, infused with a rich history. Famous guests could once be found here during the jazz era and beyond, sipping on cocktails while listening to the easy sounds of crooners sharing the scene. The space has recently been refurbished in a contemporary Art Deco design, honouring its origins. The bar, encased in marble, showcases bold geometric patterned carpets, linear angled pillars, full-length mirrors, and classic tray ceilings, complemented by soft lighting.

    Fantastic views. Great drinks and staff. Could get some more veggie options for the sides and chips could have been better. The sourdough was fantastic. Will surely visit again.

    Wonderful experience at Alluvial for my birthday High Tea... I thoroughly enjoyed my vegetarian options: the egg and truffle pinwheels were delicious and the tarts were exceptional with perfect pastry. The Scones were a little dry (for my liking) but the accompanying preserve and lemon myrtle double cream more than made up for this. The sweet treats were also delicious, my favourite was the chocolate tart (again the pastry) with raspberry and Davidson plum. The tea choice was excellent with classics like English Breakfast and French Earl Grey included alongside a new favourite - Pink Flamingo tea! Alongside this, the accompanying glass of Champagne and Orange and Cointreau shooter were a welcome addition. Overall, I highly recommend this high tea experience. However, a final shout out to the staff who were attentive without being intrusive. They really helped make my birthday special.
