1 June 2026 marks Marilyn Monroe's 100th birthday. To mark the occasion, we reflect on her connection to The Savoy, one of London's most iconic hotels.
In 1956, while in London filming The Prince and the Showgirl with Sir Laurence Olivier, Marilyn visited The Savoy, adding her name to the remarkable roll call of actors, artists and cultural icons associated with the hotel - alongside many of the famous faces featured in our Iconic Faces collection.
To celebrate her enduring legacy, Savoy Grill is raising a glass with the Eternal Blonde cocktail. Blending Bombay Sapphire, Monkey 47, lychee liqueur, fraise des bois, lemon and Champagne, it is a sparkling tribute to one of Hollywood's most unforgettable stars.
