AFTERNOON TEA was very nice but was tainted by the music being played, which was a random playlist of 80s music. Ironically, I am a big fan of 80s music but it was very off-putting while enjoying tea. The volume was loud and our party of four all agreed it did not make sense for the afternoon tea service, or quite frankly, the restaurant in this hotel. Otherwise, the selection of tea was good and our server was attentive. The tea menu was detailed in describing the flavor and origin of each tea. In addition, a box containing small capsules of tea leaves was provided so that you could smell the aroma of each selection before you decided which one to enjoy. We opted for the champagne enhancement, which was a nice start with the savory sandwiches. We agreed that some of the sandwiches were too large given this was a tea service. Ideally, you should be able to eat each item in one bite. This was not possible for a few of the selections. That said, everything we ate was delicious and that was more important. Overall, we enjoyed our time together and would recommend it. It was a nice way to spend a couple of hours when the weather was cold and dreary outside
