   The location is beautiful, but for the price the offerings (savory) is minimal and premade. It didn’t taste fresh and was not up to par to my expectations. The desserts overall were much better but still not great. I definitely wouldn’t return.

   We were very disappointed in our tea experience this time. It was underwhelming for the price. We have attended this tea, on other occasions and this was markedly different. The sweets were very ordinary, nothing that we were longing to have more of. In fact we did not even finish the offerings. We were not ever asked if we wanted our hot tea pots to be refilled at any point. It is sad that such a beautiful establishment cannot provide the mast beautiful tea service in the city.

   This tea for two ended up costing me close to $340 with tip. For four pre-made tea sandwiches on stale toast and a variety of mini-pastries that tasted like they were defrosted that morning after spending a while in a freezer. Tasteless. The place was lovely, but super disorganized with no one to receive you when checking in for tea. My party of two ended up ordering a wine and iced tea from the bar while we waited. I think I accidentally tipped 25% on the check on top of service being included because I cannot figure out how I spent $350 on a paltry variety of sad sandwiches and pastries. Insanity!

   We do this tea every year and it's fantastic! The service is fantastic and the food and tea are delicious! They are great with food allergies as well! Highly recommend to celebrate a special occasion!

   This used to be the most beautiful hotel in the city of Washington. I arrived , couldnt pull in to the front entrance becausee of black lives matter plaza and eventually found street parking. I walked in and met my friend and we were seated at the entrance. In the middle of our tea a homeless person wandered to our table and wouldn’t leave. He came back again and then we stood up and moved tables. then the bill came and it was triple the cost that anyone would expect for tea. No one had explained the menu and no one apologized for allowing a homeless person to sit with us. It was the worst experience in my lifetime of living in Washington.

   We were treated with incredible kindness and thoughtfulness for our granddaughters who are picky eaters. But I must say that the cost of the tea service was extreme, even for Washington DC. I have lived in the city and in NYC for a very long time and I was startled by the pricing. But we were treat3ed beautifully!

   Wow. Just wow. Went there once and had a great time with great service and ambiance. It was so good I wanted to come back with my daughter. (We've been to a number of afternoon teas) The second time was nothing like this. I went with my daughter, and it was unbelievable. Jammed in a corner with sun in our faces, we were basically ignored the entire time. Also, we were seated 10 feet away from the conference table for a funeral, which was super awkward. Food and service took forever, and even after I spoke with the manager, we were still ignored. I had to chase down the server to get my check after waiting forever. The manager took 20% off the bill, but it didn't make up for the lousy experience. The experience was so bad I don't even want to stay at the hotel anymore as I don't want to be reminded of it.

   At $120 a person without a tip, this was a treat for me and my family. I'd only booked it because I had seen that the experience also came with a white house ornament and I was disappointed to see that they no longer include this as a benefit. Moreover, they seated our group right by the main entrance to the hotel, which would be fine had it not been winter and being met with a rush of frigid air every single time someone entered or left the hotel (which happened without fail at least 1-2 times every five minutes). A member of our group even wore her heavy winter coat the entire time because it was so cold where we were seated. Finally, at times the wait staff was nowhere to be found, so there were a handful of times throughout the evening when I needed new silverware or waters and had to wait an unusually long amount of time. The space is stunning but this is absolutely not worth the expense or the physical discomfort and inattentive service.

    This was the worst $560 I've ever spent in my life. Mediocre food and pretty terrible service. Lovely old hotel, but paying that much for dry scones and tea for 4 people made me feel like a sucker.
