"With lovely views of San Marino and the hotel’s Horseshoe Garden, afternoon tea at the Langham is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the daintier things in life. On the $79 menu ($40 per child under 12), which is served from Thursday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. (service starts at 11 a.m. on Thursday and Friday), is a plethora of sandwiches (chicken salad, egg salad, cucumber, and more), pastries, and scones served with lemon curd and Devonshire cream." - Cathy Chaplin
"For a place to sip tea and nibble on sandwiches like you’re Christine Baranski in The Gilded Age, The Langham Huntington fits the bill. This historic hotel in Pasadena has been around for over a century and offers a $79 afternoon tea Thursday through Sunday. The menu changes seasonally, but you can expect a fairly typical array of cucumber and salmon sandwiches, a suited man playing the piano, and unobstructed views of the stately back lawn. Available Thursday through Sunday, 10am-3:30pm. " - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren

"Rooms at this Pasadena landmark displaying Pueblo Mission Revival architecture are decorated with rich woods and furnished with chaise lounges; those on the ground floor have French doors opening onto patios. The Terrace serves contemporary California cuisine in a "poolside setting," while small dishes are the norm at The Bar. The 11,000-square-foot spa was renovated in 2010 and has treatments based on traditional Chinese medicine."
