The Executive Lounge is on the ground floor and has nice offerings all day long. The breakfast offered cereals, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, fresh salmon with capers and onions, multiple bread and roll options, fruit juices, and fresh fruit.
After breakfast, they put out about 5 large glass jars filled with nori (?) balls, edamame, peanuts, pretzel mix, etc. Also a large jar with cookies.
In the evening, they offer the healthy celery and carrot sticks, etc. Sandwiches on regular sliced bread. For hot options, they had lamb and mashed potatoes, another night was salmon and rice, another night chicken with rice or potatoes (I don't recall which). I believe they had another option, but I've forgotten. Soft drinks, juices, coffees, teas, and waters all day long. Wine and beer is offered, but maybe only in the evening, not sure about the times.
Later, several yummy dessert options, along with the cookies.
It is one of the most thorough food offerings I have enjoyed in a Club Room. Sometimes, the options are all fried and fatty where you really don't want any of it, but this was all very tasty and abundant.
A large TV and newspapers are available. Someone arrived just as the breakfast time was ending and I overheard the server tell the guest they could order breakfast in the restaurant for free. I wasn't paying close attention, so I would make further inquiry.
I can confirm the above and also that the server told us we could choose to have breakfast in the restaurant. I gave them our Club Room number and they welcomed us in the restaurant (our original room rate was SFB though). Breakfast as reported, but the restaurant has a much wider selection of food options.
The hot items in the evening are only available from 17:30 to 19:30 with the dessert options 19:30-21:30 with wine/beer for the duration. We missed the hot on both days, as we were back late, but the menu showed chicken/potatoes had been on offer.
It has been a few years since I stayed at the LHR Marriott, but it certainly hasn't changed and all of the staff I encountered were lovely.
Having been put up by my company at the Sheraton Skyline previously, the Club Lounge there I found to be more private with a better seating area (and obviously better view because of the planes
), whereas I found the Marriott lounge atmosphere a little strange being next to the atrium with non-lounge guests constantly walking past to the lifts and therefore noisier.
