"lack of that truly luxurious feel"
1 reviews R Marston (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | This was the first time using this Terminal 5 lounge after recently becoming a British Airways Executive Club Gold Member. I was travelling on an Economy Hand Baggage only flight with a non status friend and he was allowed to enter as my guest. There isn't a huge difference between the Business and the First Class lounge. You still have the British Airways, NHS style Showers and Toilets. Furnishings that aren't too modern and the lack of that truly luxurious feel. But, There is an upgrade in the drinks variety. More premium brands of drinks. This visit was during Covid and so you had to order food and snacks by scanning a QR code, entering your table number and placing your order. BA lounges have never been truly luxurious, If you have one world status you are better off visiting the likes of Cathay Pacific whose bathrooms are beautifully designed, tiled and contain Aesop products. But if you want an English Breakfast for instance. BA is your best bet.

"lounge has no windows"
1 reviews G Warlan (India)
✅ Trip Verified | I visited this lounge in March when travel reduced because of the virus. This lounge is used by Aer Lingus and other OneWorld Elites which make this lounge crowded, especially in the evening. The snack options in the lounge are decent and something you can work with. This lounge has no windows and very low ceilings which make it gloomy. Club Dining is a nice option and highly recommended, it's less crowded than the rest of the lounge because of restricted access and a good choice of hot food in response to BA's sleeper service.

"lounge was very basic"
18 reviews Mark Ellwood (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | This American Airlines Admirals Club lounge was very basic with limited food and drink options, plenty of different seating areas but it was a real let down and not worth using in my opinion. I expected more but would advise just sitting in main terminal and paying for some food, I am surprised this is an American Airlines Lounge but they must be easily pleased. Would not bother using or even go to the bother of finding the lounge. If you just want a drink and a cracker then you will love it. Total waste of time,

"Food was very hit and miss"
18 reviews Mark Ellwood (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | I used the Terminal 5 North Lounge as I find this lounge less busy. Plenty of seats today so no problems for me. Food was very hit and miss, some strange bread Rolls with Bacon, they were heavily seeded and strange, not to my liking what is wrong with plain? Plenty of hot, cold and soft drinks as well as the usual alcohol. Today's use of lounge was fine a bit busier as the morning went on, toilets needed cleaning.

"quality felt lacking"
10 reviews Neil Jeram (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | The lounge is divided into business and first and has been renovated. Late evening the Club World lounge was quiet. Plentiful seating, decent selection of drinks. I found the F & B is nowhere near the standards of AA with their Flagship lounge or other One World ones I most often use. Maybe it was later in the evening but quality felt lacking. The ambience was very flat. Terminal 7 at JFK is the BA terminal and whilst great for BA and its One World partners to have its own space, its a very tired terminal. Washrooms are still the same cramped space and the showers clearly have not been renovated.

"excellent service all over"

✅ Trip Verified | The Galleries First lounge at Heathrow was beautiful and calm. Place to relax or work a bit between your flights. Excellent service all over. Nothing much more you can ask for even with a first class ticket price.

"Superb service and good space"
9 reviews Mike Andrésen (Sweden)
✅ Trip Verified | The Concorde Lounge is a place to relax and a place to eat. Superb service and good space. You can sit inside the lounge or the area outside above the departure hall if you like some more buzz. Nice dining area and good food. Only downside is there are a little short of bathrooms.

"a definite improvement"
2 reviews David Ellis (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | The Club World and First Galleries Lounge at Johannesburg has been the subject of much needed refurbishment and reflects a new harmonised policy for housing both classes under one roof without as overt a distinction as before. To be honest, the previous First lounge was something of an embarrassment, with too few seats and general feeling of being cramped. The new arrangement eschews a separate First lounge but allocates a separate First dining area. This seems to work reasonably well. The rest of the lounge is by no means spacious but there are adequate seats to accommodation the Club and First passengers on the two evening flights to LHR. The food seems to substantially better than before, with regular refreshes of both hot and cold food. The bar area is spacious as bar areas go and service was good. Overall, the new Galleries Lounge is a definite improvement for Club passengers; First passengers may not agree, of course.

"Overall, a great visit"
47 reviews P Huang (Australia)
✅ Trip Verified | After a subpar visit to the Qantas Lounge next door, my partner and I decided to give the British Airways Lounge a go. It was a completely different experience, a much better one in my opinion. The space had such character with striking decors along with a great layout for dining, work and relaxation. The catering was fantastic with plenty of options for food and beverages with plenty of comfortable seating to enjoy it. Customer service was average, lounge team were present and making sure food was plentiful plus consistently tidying but lack face to face service. Shower facilities were adequate but lacked in numbers. Overall, a great visit as I would definitely pick this lounge over the Qantas and third party offerings.

"Food options were very good"
18 reviews Mark Ellwood (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | Main Galleries Lounge in Terminal 5 at Heathrow was very busy. Food options were very good and plentiful. The main Lounge A-Gates, as usual, were very busy, not helped when some of the U shaped seating areas have massive square tables making it difficult for people to get seated (very bad design) We had a C-Gate departure so left the lounge and went to the quieter Lounge in the B-gate area which I would always recommend people to do.
