Overall ratings
Since there is no separate first class lounge, we were assigned an area in the regular lounge that was marked off with brass poles and cords. You can find better things in this area at other airports. We received a la carte service in the marked-off area. The food was very good. The selection of drinks was also very good, but the drink service was a bit strange. I got my white wine in a nice white wine glass. My friend ordered later and got it in a champagne glass. The gentleman next to us then got it later in a water glass. Sure, it can be drunk like that, but it doesn’t show well-trained staff.
Overcrowded with minimal food selections. And what little is there is of poor quality. This lounge is unrecognizable from what Loungereview described above. If the EVA Lounge in Taipei or the Singapore Lounge in Changi are a 10/10, this is a solid 2/10.
What happened to the vaunted Lufthansa Business Class experience?
Nice lounge in terms of ameneties however it gets overcrowded during evening hours and jstaff has a hard time keeping up with cleaning the space and restocking buffet areas.
A solid lounge all around – perhaps a bit small, but the food and beverages make up for it.
