Lufthansa Senator Lounge
LHR · Terminal 2A
The quiet one in T2: workstations that work, phone-call rooms, and a Star Alliance Gold tier that filters volume.
The Senator Lounge is LH's premium tier at LHR T2A. The space is split between a main lounge floor and a dedicated work zone with proper desks, monitors at some stations, and small phone-call rooms (rare at LHR lounges). Kitchen serves German classics — schnitzel, käsespätzle, hot pretzels — plus a substantial cold spread. Bar pours German wines, beers (Beck's, Krombacher), premium spirits. Showers in a separate corridor. Wi-Fi is fast and reliable. Crowd is Star Alliance Gold across all carriers plus LH First/Senator. Quieter than United Club despite similar access.
