before we finished our experience and with still more guests in the room, the waiters started cleaning, even with hoover. I found it inelegant in an hotel of this calibre. For the price paid (with added champagne) it is not worth it.

I came here to celebrate a personal milestone with my partner. The atmosphere was calm and sophisticated, and the atrium is quite pretty. My partner tells me that the gluten-free tea was truly delicious. My regular cakes and sandwiches were also nice, I really like liked the truffle mayo and chicken/chive sandwiches. The only thing I would say detracted from the experience was the tea selection. From previous afternoon tea experiences, I expected a full menu of available teas with descriptions. Instead, we have about 6 very standard choices. I feel like the Lanesborough could do better than 6 generic choices. I would return, but maybe not for the Bridgerton experience.

Tea at the Lanesborough was truly amazing! I took my mom as a final treat on a six day gift trip to London from the U.S., and the tea was definitely a highlight. From the moment we entered the beautiful hotel, we were treated literally like royalty. The elegant ambiance fit perfectly with the Bridgeton themed tea l, and the wait staff worked hard to make us feel special. The food was rich and delicious. We loved the sandwich and tea selections (the chicken, Earl Grey and Darjeeling were our favorites). The sweets were elegant and beautifully presented! We loved our entire experience at the Lanesborough tea and can’t recommend it enough.

We were guests at the Lanesborough for afternoon tea for my mum's 60th birthday. The hotel is beautiful and you receive a very warm welcome. We were delighted with the rooms in which the afternoon tea was held. The offer was more than enough, sweet and savoury dishes and each a delicacy in itself. Afternoon tea at the highest level and, compared to other 5-star hotels, the best we have ever had. Many thanks to the team for this unforgettable experience!

It is a very nice experience. I took my boyfriend there as a Birthday present as he is in love with the Bridgeton series I am not a fun myself but I like a Posh place and if that’s what you are looking for it’s the right place. I would recommend it 100%
