T5 Concorde Room: Easy to find for Transiting Passenger?
Connecting at T5 with a few hours in between flights. Arriving from US in F.
Is the Concorde Room easy to find for arriving transiting passengers?

Yes. I don't know what connection route you plan to take when you arrive at T5 - I am guessing you will go through the FCC and go to north security rather than try and go landside. In any case if you pass through north security stay on that floor, turn right, head all the way to the end and past south security and you will find the door to the CCR there with a BA agent on the little pedestal next to it.

Not as easy it could be. If going via Flight Connections, the last stage before getting fully airside is security, often called North Security by the inmates here. After completing security turn right, towards a big Harrods sign. Walk past the shops and you'll come to another security area (South Security), keep walking and you'll see a fairly discreet door right at the end, and a staff member by a pulpit outside. It is signposted at this point, but you won't see that from a distance. This is the best entrance for you and doesn't involve any stairs, it's all on the same level.

Don't even bother looking for the Concorde room door. Just do the right turn after you clear security and walk to the very far end of the terminal. When you can't go any further, the white wall in front of you is the CCR.
