Pro Auction Limited blows the doors wide open on London’s most celebrated hotel, offering over 2,000 lots of bespoke five-star luxury to private collectors and hospitality trade buyers alike.
London, United Kingdom (PRUnderground) June 16th, 2026
For the first time in recent history, the velvet ropes are being lowered at London’s most celebrated address. Pro Auction Limited has officially announced a monumental, public-access auction that allows everyday design lovers, history buffs, and independent hoteliers to step directly onto the floor of The Savoy Hotel and bid for its historic interior treasures.
Tearing up the traditional rulebook of exclusive, trade-only industry events, this public-first auction offers a rare privilege: the chance to raise a physical paddle inside the legendary hotel itself. For those unable to attend in person, a high-octane global digital webcast will stream the action in real time, letting international buyers battle it out alongside London’s local bidders.
The three-day event marks a thrilling chapter in The Savoy’s massive, rolling £45 million room-by-room restoration project spanning through 2027. More than 2,000 exceptional, custom-built lots are headed to the auction block—available at a mere fraction of their original manufacturing costs. Most enchanting of all, a select cache of these items comes straight from the hotel’s world-famous Personality Suites, once called home by icons like Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, and Sir Winston Churchill.
Bypassing the Supply Chain: A Golden Ticket for Design Lovers and Hoteliers
For boutique hoteliers, luxury Airbnb hosts, and private homeowners, this sale is a game-changer. Instead of enduring agonizingly long manufacturer lead times and skyrocketing retail costs for high-end furniture, successful bidders can completely bypass traditional supply chains. This is a rare shortcut to injecting authentic, world-class five-star DNA and British prestige into any property overnight.
By obliterating the barriers of trade-only showrooms, the auction creates a beautifully level playing field where antique hunters and commercial developers rub shoulders. Attendees can unlock jaw-dropping value across several master-crafted collections:
- The Francesco Molon Collection: Striking Georgian-style mahogany cabinetry, stately Regency-era writing desks, and intricately inlaid side tables.
- Five-Star Bedding & Opulent Textiles: Pristine, ultra-premium hospitality mattresses and bases paired with grand, custom-tailored silk drapery sets.
- Architectural Lighting & Mirrors: Sculptural designer wall sconces, glowing Murano-inspired glass fixtures, and massive, custom bevelled wall mirrors.
- The Fine Art Portfolio: A sprawling, curation of framed vintage prints, decorative sculptures, and bespoke hotel artwork that once graced the walls of the hotel’s most exclusive rooms.
“Pure Theatre”: Bringing the Auction Room Back to Life
Simon Rose, Auction Director at Pro Auction Limited, expects the atmosphere inside the hotel to be electric:
“The global response to our previous Savoy sales proved that the appetite for five-star heritage provenance is completely insatiable. But this phase is special because it is entirely accessible. You don’t need an elite designer’s budget to acquire an exceptional piece of this legacy. Private vintage buyers and boutique hoteliers alike can secure master-crafted pieces at a fraction of what they would cost to buy new today.
We are bringing the pure theatre of the auction room back to life. Having local Londoners and independent trade professionals sitting paddle-in-hand directly at the hotel, feeling the energy of the floor while battling bids lighting up screens from worldwide online buyers, elevates this to an unmissable cultural event. These pieces are structural masterclasses infused with the magic of The Savoy—and the doors are wide open.”
