The Best Lounges at Heathrow – Ranked from Champagne to Chaos
Let’s be honest – Heathrow is one of those airports that can go from smooth sailing to “why is there a 45-minute queue for Pret?” in the blink of an eye. But there’s a silver lining: get yourself into a decent lounge and suddenly things feel much calmer (and tastier).
I’ve been in and out of Heathrow more times than I care to count, and I've visited most of the Priority Pass-accessible lounges – some great, some just... there. Here’s how I rank them, based on my real visits

China Southern Airlines Business Class Review
Check-in began in a lounge-like setting with serious private jet vibes — very quiet, premium, and smooth on the surface. There was even a private security lane, which added a luxurious touch.
