text: The tea lounge at the Mandarin Oriental has it is high and low points but for me the low out weigh the high especially considering the price nFirst of all it is not really a lounge in that it is just a little area off of the registration desks in the hotel lobby The relaxing atmosphere that one would expect from a lounge quickly gives way to rolling luggage and loud parties of touristsn While there is a beautiful view of the strip there are only tables that afford you that view The majority of the tables are very low and very uncomfortable to sit at with no space for your legs When we left both my grandmother and I had aches and pains from being squished into the low uncomfortable chairs She may be an older lady but I am only nI made a reservation weeks in advance and I was still seated at a table with no view inches from a couple of loud women on their laptops who were waiting to check inn On a positive note the food while small is very delicious and filling The scones are fantastic to say the least and the Devonshire cream is perfection The tea was lovely and beautifully presented however we still are not sure if you only get one serving or refills because the server came and took our pot away never to return She was very friendly when we did see her so that is a plus nOverall for the prices Starting at per person I would have to say that the whole experience is not worth it
