The Perception at W London

I am here for the breakfast and I am quite content with I what I had. W London is a modern hotel. Likewise, their restaurant also leaves an edgy image to diners. I love the way how individual ingredients are combined together. Although they don't really have much selections for dessert, you do have a wide range of high-quality juicy/smoothies you can choose from. Ginger shot is super spicy, I am convinced that they are designed to wake up and scared of your immune system.

This bar was a real disappointment and let down by the atmospherics and service. We had not been attended to for around 10 minutes and had to go up to the bar to order. This is fine, but not at $20+ a cocktail. Waiting staff were unapologetic and one of them was sneezing all over the bar. When they did bring the cocktails over they partially spilled the contents, didn’t acknowledge it, and moved on. Service charge was still added to our bill. The bar was not busy so they were not rushed. Additionally, security staff were positioned at the bathroom entrance. Unusual and uncomfortable. Only redeeming feature of the bar was the bar tenders. They were knowledgable, friendly, and made great cocktails. If the table service hadn’t been non-existent, I would not have seen this. For that price point, London has so much more to offer.

Great space for a large group. We had a semi private booth which was plenty of space to accommodate eight people. It has a nice fire in the middle which kept us very warm. The drinks are a little on the pricey side but the cocktails were delicious.

A booked the afternoon tease as a birthday treat for my mum. We didn’t start the afternoon off we’ll due to a few service related issues but the bar staff (Diana in particular) then went out of their way to ensure we have the best experience. The food was delicious and a result immersive experience. A very different afternoon tea to what you would typically expect. The sweets treats in particular are delicious. Onto the show - the girls are fabulous. So much energy, well rehearsed and so much phone. I would highly recommend booking onto the next drag afternoon tea. The whole experience was unique and fun

Most reviews here talk about the great drinks and evening ambience that The Perception has at the W London, however this place also serves up some amazing breakfast food, especially if you're staying at the W hotel. As a Marriott Bonvoy Titanium elite I was offered breakfast here which was beyond my expectations. A+
