Afternoon tea in a posh hotel in London?

Question

We are 3 mature girls(50's) going down to London for a long weekend to do the shows and would like to have afternoon tea in a posh hotel, must have their own cakes not shop brought, any recommendtion, and do you have to book.

Answer 1

The Ritz, but really pricey these days at £27 pp. Try www.londontown.com so you can at least see the prices you are up against first. We took our daughter to the Waldorf for tea when she was five and the pianist played some of her favourite songs at the time. It was different that's for sure! Enjoy!

Answer 2

tea at the Ritz  is the best. You need to book in advance.

Ideally it should be reserved 2/3 days before you want to be there.

You can reserve your seats by visiting below website.

Answer 3

I agree with the recommendations for The Ritz, also afternoon at the Dorchester was great when I went, but it was some time ago.... worth checking it out if you can.

Answer 4

The Grosvenor or The Ritz. Recommend you book. Have a great w'end. Any chance of being your escort!

Answer 5

Answer 8

the ritz

Answer 9

The Savoy is not what it used to be I have been told by a lady I worked with who loves those little treats - since remodernising the tea room/ or where they serve tea is said to be like a corridor

Try the Rubens Hotel close to Victoria Station - anyone who is going to receive medals and honours etc from the queen stop there first as well as Lizzie having a sip of tea there herself and her carriage is kept round the back - so have heard!

Lovely tea atmosphere!
