In 1903 the original hotel was remodeled and the west wing was added featuring the Savoy Grill dining room.

The Savoy Grill was the oldest continuously operating restaurant in Kansas City, Missouri, until it temporarily closed in 2016.

With the depression of the 1930s and the later shift toward suburban living, the hotel began to fall into disrepair, although the restaurant remained active.

The Savoy was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 30, 1974.,[1] and renovation of the hotel into a bed and breakfast began in 1985.

The Savoy Grill included the original carved oak bar, high beamed ceilings, murals painted in 1903 by Edward Holslag, and the famous Booth No.

4, known as the presidents' booth, has been host to Warren Harding, Harry S. Truman, Gerald Ford, and Ronald Reagan.

"The original Grill Room was surrounded by The Savoy Murals, painted by Edward Holslag in 1903 when he was in his early thirties.

Holslag, who was a pupil of The National Academy of Design and John LaFarge, is represented at the Congressional Library in Washington, D.C.
