I visited the Athenaeum Hotel for their afternoon pink tea for a friend's hen party recently and we had a great time! The pink theme makes it slightly different to all the other London hotel afternoon teas as you get the usual tea and cakes plus pink sweets like jelly beans, candy canes and marshmallows and a glass of pink champagne which makes it extra girly-if that's your thing of course!

The sandwiches, scones and cakes are so plentiful that you'll never want more than you can have and the staff are friendly and chatty.

The perfect place to take your Mum for an afternoon treat.

We have just returned from three days at the Chesterfield Mayfair, our second stay so far this year. It really is an excellent hotel in a great location with very pleasant, helpful staff.
We had a package deal which included tickets to the Tutankhamun exhibition with an unbelievable picnic lunch to take with us, lunch on the first day and afternoon tea on the third.

The service in the restaurant is impeccible, as is the food - don't miss lunch in Butlers.

The room was well presented and comfortable with all the small touches one would hope to find in a top London hotel.

We will be returning later in the year.

Claridge's oozes old school luxury and is a fun place to have go for tea or meet up with people.

I met there yesterday and feel compelled to share the extra-ordinary sight of their hot chocolate. Here we go:

A Claridge's hot chocolate:
- 1 jug of thick, luxurious & hot chocolate
- 1 jug of warm milk
- A skewer of lightly flame-toasted marshmallows (bit of a bonus - dip away...)
- A few delicated looking biscuits thrown in for good measure

I am not a hot-chocolate fiend but I cannot imagine a more pucca or tasty hot chocolate in London or on the ski-slopes for that matter.
