I've waited a few years to get reservations for The Jefferson Hotel Christmas Afternoon tea. The experience was average at best. The food was awful. The scone was a dried up mini scone that came with jam but no clotted cream. What high tea has a mini scone and no clotted cream? The sandwiches were plain with a poor selection that was bland at best. Years ago at one of their teas, they served giant chocolate covered strawberries. This time just a small average strawberry. The peppermint cookies were dry. Not a single Christmas decoration on the table. I would tell anyone that for over $80 with tax and gratuity, just buy a tea in their gift shop and sit on a couch downstairs to enjoy the hotels beautiful decorations. I give the tea 1-2 stars. The staff and the setting is wonderful. Very disappointing as I'm disabled and will be alone for Christmas, so I decided to splurge on the tea. Wouldn't do it again.

Wonderful stay at this beautiful hotel with old world charm. Excellent service from the moment we arrived. Our room was very large and well-appointed as was the bathroom. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel.

One of the nicest hotels I have stayed in. Perfect mix of old world charm (beautiful marble and carpets) with updated features. Rooms very spacious. Bathroom mirror even has a TV built in to watch news while getting ready. Bathroom marble is absolutely gorgeous. Restaurant Lemaire is incredible. Parking was easy. Can't wait to stay here again.

Traveling for my business - Pulling up to the Jefferson, I realized I was in a special place. The hotel is stunning, the staff goes out of their way to make you feel welcome, and my suite was outstanding. From the valet, to the check in experience, to the restaurants - it was all 5 star service. An absolute must-stay if you're in Richmond.
