Best afternoon tea hands down

Thali did a wonderful job. 10/10 would highly recommend. We’ve had afternoon tea in every part of the world and I have to say this is one of the best experiences, hands down.

Very Good

Very good, not great.

We went for their tea service which is in a beautiful room overlooking a terrace. We were given a complimentary glass of sparkling wine to start. There are numerous teas to choose from and my peach white tea was excellent. The savory bites were all very good. The scone was a plain biscuit-tasting bread which wasn’t very good. The sweet pastries were ok. The pastry part was a little soft as if it had been outside in the humidity a while. The fourth course which was slices of cake was good. In fact my carrot cake was perfect. The staff were nice, but not as sweet and friendly as at our hotel, the Taj.
