Tea at Reid’s, that’s a global synonym for elegant setting, a splendid view (the ocean in the background is the Atlantic, you are looking West) and an unforgettable afternoon tea.
This is the place where Hollywood stars spend time in privacy, where writers are inspired, where Winston Churchill enjoyed one week of undisturbed painting tremendously, while the Irish Nobel Prize winner Georg Bernhard Shaw wrote: This is one of those unnaturally lovely hells of places where you bathe amid innumerable blossoms in midwinter.”
“Reid’s is one of those hotels like Raffles in Singapore, that people actually visit for itself as opposed to the country around it and, of course, for the sheer snob appeal of the people who have stayed there before.”
Julie Burchill
“Reid’s revisited after so many years. Then almost a honeymoon. This time with our daughter. It still is the perfect place for couples, singles and families. Set in the lush gardens at the top of the rock, nothing can match that view, the location and its tradition.
But it also represents the best food, the most comfortable rooms, the most attentive service.”
