First let me say that I am not requesting neither am I offering to do look ups.
I am unable to find the Savoy Hotel in the 1911 census.
I am doing an address search and I have entered every street in the vicinity of the Savoy Hotel of the Strand, London.
I have tried as many different spellings as I can think of but have drawn a complete blank.
The hotel must have had numerous 'live in' staff and many guests staying on the night of the 1911 census.
I am having to do an address search as I don't have enough details for a person search, but if I see a name and where that person was born I may be able to carry on my research.
If anyone is able to give me a clue as to where I can find the Savoy Hotel in the census I should be very grateful.
Regards siskin

I tried in vain to see which reg district and enumeration district the Savoy was in on the 1901 census. Got this far http://www.1901censusonline.com/results.asp?wci=ad_results&searchwci=ad_search but you need credits to view!
But I have found
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/jeffery.knaggs/Instuts.html
which says the Savoy Hotel is RG13/244 87-92 which I can't figure out how to search on Ancestry. Too many enumeration districts to plough through.
Hope someone else has the key!

Ok must learn to read - SAVOY not Strand Hotel
1911 - Search PLACE
enter
STRAND
London
SAVOY HOTEL
and up it comes.
Good Luck
