Hotels near Number Sixteen Afternoon Tea

Served in The Orangery or private garden, afternoon tea at Number Sixteen is a sophisticated affair. Housed within a grand Victorian townhouse in leafy South Kensington, the hotel still retains the feel of a private residence so guests can pretend they're taking tea in their very own home. Tuck into finger sandwiches filled with honey roasted ham and mustard, cream cheese and cucumber, truffled egg and watercress, smoked salmon, and Dorset crab. Both fruit and plain scones are on offer, served with clotted cream and preserves, while sweet treats include strawberry cupcakes, Battenberg cake, a chocolate brownie and raspberry cheesecake. The afternoon tea experience is £22 per person but guests also have the option to purchase one of the speciality teas and infusions or upgrade to a boozy afternoon tea from £29.
