The afternoon tea was amazing. It surpassed our expectations. The surroundings were beautiful and there was attention to detail. All the staff were polite, attentive and informative. We would definitely go back there again .

I booked a table for 4 people. The service in general was nice,however,we had to ask for few things multiple time to arrive,even some stuff didn’t arrive. When I asked for the bill i was surprised with the service fee charged that was nearly 50… I had to ask the staff why would they automatically add this value as I have to pay based on my budget and experience not based on the hotel’s budget. I asked the staff to wave the fee.

A lovely couple of hours in the heart of Mayfair; attentive, warm and welcoming staff, a lovely setting and reasonably priced afternoon tea (considering London prices).

As expected, the service was impeccable and the food was excellent. Compared to other 5 star luxury hotel restaurants such as The Ritz and The Lanesborough, Claridge’s is considerably more expensive without delivering anything extra.
