For children (and adults alike), The Dorchester is the mother of all hotels. Tea at The Dorchester is a rite of passage and a birthday party in the Oliver Messell suite is still one of the most fantastical backdrops in the world for a landmark celebration. The Dorch – as it is affectionately known – has always been at the heart of grand London, where the great and the good have always congregated, measuring out the milestones of their lives, be that affairs, wars, weddings, anniversaries. So it is no surprise that The Dorchester has dreamed up a festive menu of delights that is classically chic and cool, no new quirks or annoying fads, just old school elegance.
