Excellent location and very convenient for shoppers - a few minutes from Bond Street Station.
Booking is definitely necessary - at least a week or two in advance and longer if you are hoping to book for a Saturday or special date. I booked via email and the response was swift and extremely accomodating.
Tea at Claridges is served in the Reading Room. Initially it seems less obviously grand than some other top London hotels, but beautiful nonetheless and perfect for an intimate or quiet tea for couples etc.
The tea itself was delicious, a superb range of choice and no limit to how many fresh pots or types you could try.
Tea was accompanied by lovely sandwiches with a good range of fillings, which we were offered more of, and sepcifically whether we had any favourites which we would like more of. Then there were 2 types of scones which were perfect, with cream and jam of course, then finally a selection of gorgeous dainty desserts. Definitely very filling!
The service was excellent - very helpful and attentive without being intimidating and we were able to take our time.
A trip to the bathroom is also a must - very lovely, with all manner of scented soaps and lotions.
A lovely treat for a special occasion. Similiar price to other top London hotels. There is a service charge added, but you are left feeling it is well deserved.
