Description

The experience centres on a curated selection of Palais des Thés paired with artisanal tea sandwiches, pastries, and desserts. Guests sit in a comfortable, beautifully decorated space designed for unhurried conversation. Service is a highlight, with visitors praising the attentive, long-serving staff who keep the experience from feeling rushed. While the atmosphere is widely appreciated, some diners note that the food quality does not always justify the premium price tag, pointing to strong local competition for high tea and breakfast.
