HEAVEN #62: Ritz Carlton Executive Lounge Afternoon Tea

in #tokyo8 years ago

Ritz Carlton Executive Lounge Afternoon Tea

My grandfather once told me that rich people always get richer, because they get so many things for free. In case of the Executive Lounge of the Ritz this is absolutely true. So you might be wondering why I did pay the upgrade to the Exec Floor in the 53rd floor. It was 200 USD per night extra... If you have access to the Lounge you won't have to go out for breakfast, lunch and dinner... and you get unlimited free drinks (alcohol too) etc.

OK, so In my humble opinion the 200 USD extra per day were such a great investment... Everything here was beautiful... The whole lounge, the view out of the 53rd floor. The afternoon tea really blew me away. I paid a lot money in London for an afternoon tea and it was not even close to the quality and selection of the Ritz Carlton. And everything you see in the Lounge is all you can eat and drink ;). So many hotels offer Executive Floors with Lounges. Usually you get free access if you hold Status. Not the Ritz, so I went ahead and paid for the access. Best decision ever !!!

@knozak2015
Yes, you told me yesterday in a comment, that today would exceed your post of yesterday. You were right. Luxury at its finest. And your photo taking skills is priceless. And all of us here get to see it for free. What can I say. Just "wow".
Stars for you. You have earned them.
Thank you

That right there is the true definition of 'Executive'. Everything in the lounge oozed high end luxury in every way. That was money well spent sir! Nice one.

indeed ;) it did cost a lot for the 4days. but worth it ;)

As long as your experience was enjoyed, than it was well worth the costs. Have a great weekend man!
