After checking out from the hotel, we had a quick bite and drinks at The Samovar Lounge. The venue is charming and peaceful. Their menu is small and we enjoyed whatever we ordered. The service was spot on.

I first time I tried the samovar lounge afternoon tea was back in 2016 and since that time I haven’t been back until now and I wasn’t sure if it would still be good. I was not disappointed and I would still rate this place 5 stars for afternoon tea. Back in 2016 I had the Arabic afternoon tea and I was impressed with the delicious Arabic twist. This time we got one classic and one Arabic. Preparing the Arabic one takes 45 mins but it was ok because we got the classic one first. We absolutely loved all the sandwiches and the scone and cream was great. The breads were fresh and everything was so yummy. With the Arabic afternoon tea there are many things which come with it so in addition to the delicious sandwiches including hummus beetroot and mutabbal sandwiches and shawarma it also comes with Arabic bread and 3 type of dips all so good (hummus and mutabbal and some other dip) as well as pancakes with honey butter and the scones and cream and other desserts I loved the baklava it was light and good quality. I would highly recommend afternoon tea at the samovar lounge and the price is very reasonable too for the good quality food at 160 per afternoon tea and each afternoon tea comes with a hot drink that can be refilled once. Also the atmosphere is amazing always very relaxed and quiet.

We tried the Samovar afternoon tea, I would say that I preferred afternoon tea at One & Only the Palm as the presentation and the choices were better .I ordered the cheesecake, it had sesame which is unusual in a cheesecake. The staff were friendly.

Good place , hospitable staff and nice ambience.

Sophisticated place the service excellent the place very relaxing.

Not bad, nothing special.Nothing special, will go
