After much research we opted for Afternoon Tea at the Dorchester. An older review on Trip advisor was very helpful, and we hoped all would be still the same. Indeed, I can confirm all the other reviewer said. The price for the full afternoon tea (excluding champagne) is now £33.50, plus 12% service charge, but for a truly unforgettable afternoon... more

I stayed at the Dorchester for one night only for the purpose of a special occasion. This is a world class hotel located in an exclusive part of central London. The small amount of reserved parking spaces in front of the hotel are only ever full with Ferraris, Aston Martins, and Bentleys etc. On arrival, the lady at reception was... more

We booked afternoon tea at the Dorchester as an anniversary present to ourselves and from the moment the doorman opened the doors and we walked in to this amazing hotel it was like Alice falling down the rabbit hole! We arrived early and were told that our table would be ready in a few minutes and so we went to... more

This was my first stay at The Dorchester - travelling with my sister who was 50 on the day of our arrival. Check-in was great, with friendly reception staff and we were taken up to our room and shown all the amenities. Our room was fantastic, great decor, very spacious - we had a deluxe twin room. The only downside... more

I've never stayed at a more fabulous hotel. The staff were beyond helpful - both at the fore and behind the scenes - and after a hectic day of touring returning to the Dorchester was like coming back to an oasis. Travelling solo can you can sometimes feel like an anomaly - but at this hotel you will be treated... more

Once in a while it is lovely to spend a little extra and stay somewhere special. My daughter and I came to London for business for a couple of days and decided to see why my husband spoke so fondly of The Dorchester. Now, we know. Discretion, luxury, style, and every possible amenity. The Alain Ducasse restaurant was truly outstanding... more

My husband and I chose The Dorchester for our wedding on May 2nd and had an amazing time. From visiting the hotel to plan our day up until we checked out the staff were superb. We were married in the Pavillion and Penthouse room on the 8th floor overlooking the city and had an amazing day. We had a suite... more

The Dorchester is the top of London elegance. Many celebs are spotted in the lobby or staying here. We chose this hotel because of it's fine reputation. We stayed in a Dorchester Suite which had two bedrooms and magnificent views of Hyde Park. The Rolls Royce picked us up from the airport and took us promptly to the hotel, the... more

We stayed at The Dorchester in the easter half term for 2 nights. It was our second visit to the Hotel and just as good. The only draw back to staying here , is that it completely spoils you from staying anywhere else. We have as a family stayed in some beautiful hotels all over the world, but The Dorchester... more
