Hilton Wembley – ‘Virtual Executive Lounge’

[Swiss Jim]

Taking my daughter to watch the Lionesses at Wembley. Booked into Hilton Wembley. Main attraction it’s very close proximity to the stadium. Another benefit is it has an Executive Lounge (though no idea if it’s any good).

Anyway, just received a text saying that on the night we’re staying they will be operating a ‘Virtual Executive Lounge’. Presumably because the Executive Lounge / possibly floor is being given up to one of the teams (even the Lionesses themselves…).

Could be a plus. However, I suspect the ‘virtual’ experience is nothing like the lounge. I’m assuming this is pretty standard practice when events are on (though not a hint on the website). Does anyone have any experience?

I also assume I’m not the only one on this forum impacted by this…

I suspect its nothing different to what hotels do if lounge close at weekends or are being refurbished. You’ll get a couple of drinks vouchers at check-in and a few plates ot tapas will be sat on a table in the bar for a couple of hours ….
