Hotel cabbage? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

savoy

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue could be a double definition.

'hotel' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.

'cabbage?' is the second definition.
(I know that savoy is a type of head cabbage)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for savoy that I've seen before include "Variety of cabbage" , "Type of cabbage - London theatre" , "Cabbage; hotel" , "area of France" , "Dense cabbage" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
