I booked a weekend high tea for family lunch but my expectation was quite low after reading some mediocre reviews on Tripadvisor. The main complaint from Tripadvisor was the unprofessional and incompetent service that didn’t match star rating of the hotel. Much to my relief, it turned out to be a delightful lunch whereby all four of us enjoyed ourselves and left satisfied.
As soon as we were ushered to our table by the window overlooking Market Street and State Theatre, they served water and took our drink orders straightaway. There was no delay or difficulty getting staff attention as some people described on Tripadvisor. Throughout the lunch our water glasses were often topped up an...
For some reason I felt the need to purchase the most expensive burger on the menu. I've never paid almost $30 for a burger in my life, but it's a hotel bar and prices are deliberately inflated to exploit international tourists in order for our country to maintain a sustainable prosperous economy - so it was time to make my contribution and support the service industry that carries all of us! The MOOD & INTERIOR of the place is quite futuristic with European influences - it is Swiss after all, even my burger had Swiss cheese! The booths are quite high so you've got total privacy which are ideal for corporate lunch meetings, dates, secret affairs and any intimate rendesvouz.THE AUSTRA...
Enjoyed a four course dinner with a bottle of wine and the views from our table by the window was gorgeous.
Entreé: Hiramasa king fish sashimi with ribbons of pickled beetroot, dollops of horse radish, sea succulents, finger lime caviar and puffed rice • Fresh and light palate cleanser with a touch of crunch to balance the silky sashimi and beetroot.
Second: Cream infused Pumpkin Soup topped with pumpkin seeds and grilled sour dough bread • Crème de la Crème of Pumpkin Soups| I'm usually not the biggest fan of pumpkin soup but my oh my JPB has revolutionalised my palate.
Main: 12hr Slow Cooked Beef Cheek with Marrow Bone • succulently soft beef that separates at the touch of a fork and...
My partner and I stayed at the Swissotel over the weekend of November 11th to 13th 2016 and had Executive Lounge access. On the first day we were disappointed at the quality of the food in the Executive Lounge that we decided to have breakfast on the Sunday in JPB. This was a great decision.
The range of food covered everything that you would like. If you wanted an omlette they would make it fresh for you with whatever you wanted in it.
If you are looking for a full breakfast then do yourself a favour and book a table at JPB.

Seriously below average food. I have no idea who the chef is but twice in a row now I have had an absolutely shocking dinner meal! They have no idea on how to cook a steak! .... I asked for medium rare and it ranged from well done to rare across the steak. Side dishes and main presentation are sub par as well.
With the intense competition in the cbd you should save your money and look around.
My husband and I stayed at Swissotel for our anniversary and naturally we had to try the cafe downstairs. Great customer service and were quick to serve. The cafe had modern interiors. Our friends and I also enjoyed a high tea buffet and we just loved the food and unlimited drinks. I most especially loved all the chocolate desserts they served. I will definitely come back to this place.
I believe this high tea menu was only for the holiday xmas season. But it's worth going if it's on!! I can't think of anything wrong or negative from my experience .. service was attentive and polite, and the food was great with options in a buffet such as meat pies, pavlovas, and an extensive range of made-to-order T2 tea. If it weren't so expensive I'd go back frequently!
Lovely service, elite and luxurious dining area, thoughtful menu and creative desserts, love this place so much. Great breakfast buffet selection with real honey from real bees! ????????????????????????????????????????
Polite and well manner waiter and waitresses, full of joy, full belly, full of happiness. Swissotel ????????

Been here for high tea twice and both times they had run out of scones! Who has a high tea without scones? Not a huge variety on offer here. There are better options in the city for a similar price point.
The ambience is nice though.
Nice place and atmosphere, good quality food. Very close to the Myer shopping centre and state theatre, the staff were very helpful with a warm smile ????????????
