We had famous high tea vis Groupon deal. It was very good deal. The staff was so polite and offered taking picture for us. I like this hotel high tea is you can have different type of tea, not only one. The scone and sandwiches were so soft and moist! There are important for high tea. We want to come back again.

High : impeccable service
Low : draughty seating
Dog friendly : no!
I had another special occasion that needed a lovely setting plus I was on a mission to top that underwhelming high tea at Sofitel. Ok, I know Iβm never going to surpass the well rehearsed long standing British high tea experiences but I am going to try ; )
So Take 2 β Stamford Plaza. I had my doubts, remembering it from its stylishly elegant glory days 30 years ago when it was the hippest hotel in town β the Regent. I was treated to a work morning tea there when it first opened and believe me, back then, when the only cafΓ© in town was Robert Harris and soy decaf latteβs werenβt even invented, it was quite the treat : )
I was pleasantly surprised, the dΓ©cor was warm and inviting despite the storm brewing outside and being seated at a draughty table.Β
The service was impeccable β our trainee waiter could not do enough for us and was incredibly polite and treated us like royalty.
The treats were meticulously presented β coloured dust, gold leaf, pottles and flower petals β all added to the impact. The savouries were quite tasty and the scones were light including a chocolate one. I was actually too full with tea refills that I could not finish all the cakes. I did get a doggie bag but felt bad when a homeless person parked right outside was begging. I just hope he enjoyed the treats as much as I did.
I did think about hunkering down in one of their comfy looking lounge chairs and waiting out the storm ; )
So a definite step in the right direction. ππ½
Had our first 'High Tea' experience here and it was amazing. I had purchased the deal of groupon for high tea for two. From the staff to food it was all on point. Would give it four stars because I think some of the food was quiet plain (still very delicious though). However the staff were amazing and really made the experience that much better. So the 5th star is solely because of their amazing staff
