At a glance
One of five lounges in Terminal 5, ranking 3rd among them. An airline lounge with enough quiet for a read or a nap, a bar worth the visit, and coffee made by a person rather than a button — though seats are scarce at peak and the food won't make a meal. It seats around 100, runs a full bar, and has two shower suites to freshen up in. Hours are 5:30 AM – 11:30 PM daily. It opened in 2025. Somewhere to sit down and charge a phone, not to linger. Recorded access options include Air France Lounge, Crown Lounge, and Priority Pass and 1 more program. Entry conditions and availability apply.
