My Lounge in Heathrow Terminal 3 is now open – take a look

No1 Lounges has officially opened its new My Lounge at Heathrow Terminal 3.

The old Club Aspire lounge has been fully refurbished and rebranded ‘to deliver a bold new My Lounge experience, laid-back, sociable, and full of character’.

What it actually does is properly differentiate the three lounges that No1 operates in Terminal 3, with Clubrooms as the most premium, No1 Lounge as the mainstream offering and My Lounge as the more casual, family friendly option.

No1 has publicly said that it intends to phase out the Club Aspire brand, which implies that we can expect a change to the Heathrow Terminal 5 site at some point.

The Club Aspire lounge at Gatwick South will be more of a challenge because there is already a My Lounge, No1 Lounge and Clubrooms in the terminal. I suspect the easiest option will be to knock-through to the existing My Lounge behind it – these two lounges were originally one space, used by Virgin Holidays, if you go back a decade.

The My Lounge Heathrow Terminal 3 website is here.

What can you find in My Lounge Heathrow Terminal 3?

The new My Lounge covers 3,200 sq ft and offers 112 seats with an open-plan layout.

There wasn’t a press preview (the team has been focussing on Jersey, which opens today) and the photographs here have been supplied by No1.

To quote:

Designed as a flexible, informal space for modern travellers, it offers a laid-back alternative to the traditional airport lounge, where guests can unwind, play, or simply switch off before they fly.

The lounge features a self-service grazing menu with hot and cold snacks, sweet treats and a pancake machine, alongside bistro-style dining and a fully tended bar serving beer, wine and spirits. Guests can also help themselves to soft drinks, juices, teas and coffees throughout the day. 

Entertainment and social zones include a games area with arcade table and PlayStation, and a cosy ‘den’, perfect for catching up on TV, films or live sport. Additional amenities include fast and free Wi-Fi, plentiful charging points, accessible toilets, baby-changing facilities, and live flight information screens to keep guests informed.

Casual seating throughout is designed with groups, families and solo travellers in mind, creating an atmosphere that is easy-going, energetic and refreshingly different, with playful design touches and an inclusive feel.

The opening of My Lounge completes a trio of refreshed spaces under the No1 Lounges portfolio at Heathrow T3. Each brand offers a distinct experience, from the indulgence of Clubrooms to the refined familiarity of No1 Lounge, and now the relaxed spirit of My Lounge – giving travellers greater freedom to choose the space that best matches their personality and reason for travel.
