Sparkling Afternoon Tea For Two for £29 at the 4* Doubletree by Hilton London (53% Off)

Martial artists rarely host tea parties, citing the unpopularity of their knuckle sandwiches. Make room for finger food with today’s Groupon: £29 for sparkling afternoon tea for two at Doubletree by Hilton London. 

Glittering with four stars to its name, this member of the world-famous Hilton family graces London’s historic Bloomsbury district . Embracing the theatrical West End, the hotel’s dining areas are each aptly tailored for pre-theatre diners, while the plush lounge offers a soft parking spot for a post-retail therapy beverage. Equidistant to Holborn and Russell Square tube stations, the grand Edwardian venue is close to the bright lights of Oxford Street, Covent Garden, and Piccadilly Circus. 

Toasting good health with a glass of Brut Cuvée sparkling wine, guests can contemplate which choice of teas, coffee, or herbal infusions to opt for to accompany pomp and circumstance. Freshly cut finger sandwiches, such as smoked salmon or cucumber and cream cheese, make for mouth-watering savoury morsels. While sweet pastries, toasted tea cakes, and fruit cake will sweeten up the selection, with a sugary finale of clotted cream and fruit preserves adorning warmed, pillowy scones. 

Reviews

The DoubleTree by Hilton received a tantalising 5/6 for service and food from LateRooms.com users, while TripAdvisors awarded the hotel 3.5/5. Though Afternoon Tea is yet to be widely commented on, visitors have complimented the staff as well as the décor of the public areas.

Reception is great when you are in a group & want to meet together before you head out as there is a lovely & luxurious feeling large central seating area in the front foyer.
