Afternoon champagne tea with friends one celebrating a birthday. We had a lovely time in such a beautiful setting, the food was excellent, and plenty of it. Champagne was delicious and such a lovely variety of teas to choose from. Best of all was the attentive, friendly and knowledgeable staff, all made us feel so welcome. A real treat for a special occasion

Took my parents for afternoon tea to celebrate my Mothers 80th Birthday. We had an excellent experience. Champagne on the upper terrace overlooking the lovely views. Afternoon tea with exceptional service followed by a Gin & Tonic in the lounge bar. A wonderful memory for my Mother. Would definitely recommend a visit.

In particular the head waiter ben is such an asset to the business and one of the reasons we return along with Jack from the concierge team who is brilliant both go the extra mile to make your stay very special

Cliveden was the height of excellence. From the moment the valet took charge of my car to the moment of departure when the porter gave us a complimentary half bottle of high quality champagne. The staff were always supremely attentive and the spa facilities were a haven of calm serenity. The afternoon tea was delicious and the breakfast buffet was beyond belief in variety and artistic presentation, as was the cooked breakfast. The whole experience was most enjoyable, relaxing and an example of bygone luxury and hospitality.

I had a spa evening and floating sound healing session. It was amazing. From the moment I arrived i felt welcomed. The staff were friendly. The changing rooms were spotless and there were lots of clean towels available. Each locker had a robe, flip flops and a towel. There were private changing areas in the changing room too. The indoor pool area also had an infra red sauna and steam room and jacuzzi. There was also lots of water to drink. The relaxation area was lovely too. The outdoor pool area had lots of sun loungers available. After my spa session I joined the group for the floating sound healing. It was absolutely amazing and something that's been on my bucket list for ages. I have never felt so relaxed. I highly recommend visiting. Next time I will have afternoon tea too.

We have been to Cliveden on many occasions now, even for my husband's 50th birthday celebration. It is a perfect place for romance or just chilling out. I recommend it to all of my friends. Perfect food, wonderful staff and superb rooms. We just love it!!
