A beautiful hotel which catered amazingly to my friend's dietary requirements. The only criticism was my pot of tea was cold but quickly rectified.

We had a 15 min delay to get seated (event started really late at 245 pm). Most of the crockery was wet. They took like 40 min to take our tea orders. Not impressed. Under staffed

We arrived on time at 2.30pm to be queued for 20 minutes. Items on the menu had been replaced with others. We were leaving for the airport to return home and felt that our visit could have been more relaxing and less rushed if we hadn't been standing on the staircase waiting to be shown to our table. A very disappointing experience for my daughter and myself.

We had a high tea. The tea didn’t come with the food, the table was dirty, they only had three staff on managing the whole area, tables not cleared and the food ok. The ambiance could have been beautiful but they just ran their staff into the ground. Will not return or recommend

This was a rather disappointing experience, unfortunately. The furniture was discoloured, dirty, and scribbled on with pen; the tea was served lukewarm at best, almost cool; the food served was stale and soggy in equal measure; and the staff didn't understand processes for payment and lacked professionalism. Very sorry to say this, but on that experience I absolutely could not recommend the Wedgwood high tea in Aria bar.

Unfortunately the wait time to be seated was lengthy & disorganised, the wait time for tea (we have come especially for high tea) was too long, sandwiches were soggy, overall I did not enjoy the experience compared to other high tea establishments.

Tea was cold. Menu was incorrect or some things weren’t served. There was no tea sommelier as advertised. No information given about how good was served or what to do. Very slow service for tea, had to ask every time we wanted some, including the first time.

It seemed it was the waitresses first day. We were seated quickly. Sparkling wine was served and unfortunately a glass was spilt all over one of my guests. As the young waitress was very nervous, we mopped up and made light of what had happened. However, her service just deteriorated from there. We had to ask for dry napkins as they were a sodden mess. She brought out one and then went back for others. We had to ask for a clean cup as it was full of spilt wine, then we asked for a teaspoon which wasn’t forthcoming so we shared. We waited a long time for the food to be replenished and our tea orders weren’t taken until an hour after we arrived. My previous experiences have been wonderful but this time I was bitterly disappointed and embarrassed. Even if the waitress had given us a smile that would have been a positive. However, I don’t think her heart was in it. The rest of the staff were lovely and the setting beautiful so I will try again in the future and hope this was a one off.

Our second visit to Aria for High Tea - much busier than the first time but no drop in the level of service or quality of the food. Savoury courses delicious and unlimited sweet items on offer. Savouries were replenished but another scone or two would have been welcome - a personal favourite ! Overall great but at $84 / head - no alcohol - make sure you arrive on an empty stomach !
