Okay, here is my sharing about “tea at the lowell hotel”, hope you guys enjoy it!
So I heard about this fancy afternoon tea thing at The Lowell Hotel, and you know I had to check it out. It’s called the “Lily of the Valley Tea,” and they’ve teamed up with Dior Maison, so you know it’s gonna be extra.
First off, I made a reservation because this place is popular. Then came the day, I got dressed up, put on some decent clothes, nothing too crazy, but I wanted to look presentable. Arrived at the hotel, the place is all classy and swanky, the staff greeted me with a smile, the kind of place where you feel like you should be whispering.
They seated me, and the table was already set up all pretty with fine china and stuff. Then, they brought out the tea menu, and it was a whole book. I just picked a random one that sounded good, what do I know about fancy tea? Then the real fun began – the food.
They brought out this three-tiered tray, and I felt like I was in a movie. Started with the savories, tiny little sandwiches, five of them, each one different and tasty. I was worried I’d still be hungry, but guess what? They offer refills on the sandwiches! So I totally asked for more, no shame. Then I moved on to the scones, two warm scones with cream and jam. They were so fluffy and delicious, I could have eaten a dozen. After that, I was pretty stuffed, but I still had room for some sweets, a few bite-sized cakes and pastries. Each one was like a little work of art, almost too pretty to eat. Almost.
The whole time, the waiters were super attentive, refilling my teacup, asking if I needed anything. They really make you feel like royalty. I spent a good two hours there, just enjoying the food, the atmosphere, and the people-watching. Everyone else there was dressed up too, having a good time.

Finally, I paid the bill. Yeah, it was pricey at $125, but honestly, it was worth it for the experience. It’s not something I’d do every day, but for a special occasion or just to treat yourself, it’s definitely a cool thing to try.
So, if you’re ever in New York and you want to feel fancy for a few hours, go check out the afternoon tea at The Lowell Hotel. Just remember to wear something nice, and be prepared to eat a lot of tiny, delicious food.
