~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Famed Swiss hotelier C?sar Ritz opened the hotel on May 24, 1906. The building is neoclassical in the Louis XVI manner, built during the Belle ?poque to resemble a stylish Parisian block of flats, over arcades that consciously evoked the Rue de Rivoli. Its architects were Charles Mew?s, who had previously designed Ritz's H?tel Ritz Paris, and Arthur Davis, with engineering collaboration by the Swedish engineer Sven Bylander. It was the first hotel in the country to offer every room a private bathroom, and was the first substantial steel-frame structure in London.
