I booked a weekend high tea for family lunch but my expectation was quite low after reading some mediocre reviews on Tripadvisor. The main complaint from Tripadvisor was the unprofessional and incompetent service that didn’t match star rating of the hotel. Much to my relief, it turned out to be a delightful lunch whereby all four of us enjoyed ourselves and left satisfied. As soon as we were ushered to our table by the window overlooking Market Street and State Theatre, they served water and took our drink orders straightaway. There was no delay or difficulty getting staff attention as some people described on Tripadvisor. Throughout the lunch our water glasses were often topped up an...

For some reason I felt the need to purchase the most expensive burger on the menu. I've never paid almost $30 for a burger in my life, but it's a hotel bar and prices are deliberately inflated to exploit international tourists in order for our country to maintain a sustainable prosperous economy - so it was time to make my contribution and support the service industry that carries all of us! The MOOD & INTERIOR of the place is quite futuristic with European influences - it is Swiss after all, even my burger had Swiss cheese! The booths are quite high so you've got total privacy which are ideal for corporate lunch meetings, dates, secret affairs and any intimate rendesvouz.THE AUSTRA... Book a table now

I believe that this high-tea menu was only for the Christmas Christmas time. But it's worth it when it's further !! I can not imagine anything wrong or negative from my experience. Service was attentive and polite, and the food was great with possibilities in a buffet like meat cake, Pavlowas and an extensive assortment of T2 tea T2 tea. If it was not so expensive, I would often go back!
My husband and I stayed at Swissotel for our anniversary and naturally we had to try the cafe downstairs. Great customer service and were quick to serve. The cafe had modern interiors. Our friends and I also enjoyed a high tea buffet and we just loved the food and unlimited drinks. I most especially loved all the chocolate desserts they served. I will definitely come back to this place.

I believe this high tea menu was only for the holiday xmas season. But it's worth going if it's on!! I can't think of anything wrong or negative from my experience .. service was attentive and polite, and the food was great with options in a buffet such as meat pies, pavlovas, and an extensive range of made-to-order T2 tea. If it weren't so expensive I'd go back frequently!
