Reviews for Belmond Mount Nelson
Mount Nelson High Tea
Wonderful selection of nibbles and a almost overwhelming selection of teas, but our host, Thuli, had great suggestion on what to pair. A lovely celebration of classic high tea.

High Tea Celebration of life
What a beautiful way to celebrate the life of my mom-in-law who sadly passed away 3wks ago, and we were booked today to share a High Tea experience for her 80th. The tea sommelier, Craig, was so informative and helpful. Cheslyn, our wonderful service ambassador, was very attentive and is a great asset for the hotel. The food...... Savoury sandwiches - egg mayo, cucumber, chicken mayo; mushroom tartlets, salmon on cucumber, cold pea soup, smoked pate on Cape seed loaf. Sweet tarts, cakes, petit fiors and dessert mouthfuls.....too much, but so scrumptious. The tea options.... Over 50 to choose, just too many. Brewed and seeped at your table, from regular Ceylon tea right up to 200yr old Chinese black tea..... Nothing to fault at all. Amazing.

Afternoon tea at its best
We once again had a wonderful relaxing time at the High Tea Restaurant at the Mount Nelson. Our experience once again, made even more memorable with the very attentive staff. Special thanks to Cheslyn. A wonderful lady and a great asset to this Establishment.
