Jasmine Afternoon Tea

“I booked the jasmine afternoon tea at Kona restaurant for a baby shower, and it was a good experience. The special touches, like balloons and a dessert for the mum-to-be, made it personal. Tania and the team constantly attended to our needs for tea and food refills. The standout dishes were the paneer pastry and gajar halwa macaroons, each with a unique twist. The Secrets of India black tea was a definite winner!” view full review

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with my three kids in the Kings Three Bed Suite, which was upgraded to the presidential suite-a nice touch. The rooms were kept meticulously clean, providing a comfortable experience overall. The service was exceptional from check-in to check-out, with staff going above and beyond to assist us. The location was perfect, just a short stroll away from Buckingham Palace. However, it was a bit challenging to get a taxi, as there were no staff available to call one.
