Good Spa Guide - The Best Spas in Britain

Product Information

The spa at Hope Street Hotel has been acknowledged for its impressive facilities including a 15-metre long indoor swimming pool, outdoor courtyard vitality pool and jacuzzi, thermal journey experience, Rasul, hammam and seven treatment rooms. The baths are open exclusively to hotel guests for a couple of hours each morning and evening; outside of these times you need to book a spa treatment to use them, even if you're staying at the hotel, which initially seems a little mean but averts overcrowding. May have some underlining and highlighting of text and some writing in the margins, but there are no missing pages or anything else that would compromise the readability or legibility of the text. Nestled in the picturesque Staffordshire countryside, Hoar Cross Hall is an idyllic spa resort destination, perfect for soothing spa days, restful escapes, and celebrating life’s moments with loved ones.

These Regional Awards help us to celebrate the best spas in the country, from Scotland to Devon to London. Winners of the 10 categories were decided using the GSG’s audit of its Bubble Rating system and the opinions of its experienced Spa Spies who anonymously reviewed each location. The spa is one of the largest around, with two swimming pools, stylish relaxation areas, inviting thermal facilities, a spa restaurant, a hair salon and 41 treatment rooms where Elemis and Voya face and body treatments are performed by highly-skilled therapists.There’s also a rotating series of spa partnerships throughout the course of the year; for 2023, it’s CBD brand OTO, who have designed a special treatment for women going through the menopause.

A reassuringly thorough massage might use hot herb and oat-filled poultices to relieve tension, warm oil poured over the head to soothe the mind, or heated ceramic pods to get deep into knotted muscles.

Jan 2024 Arch Amenities Group (AAG)* has announced the opening of its first Privai Spa + Fitness Center in a hotel – the 411-room Kimpton Epic Hotel in Miami, Florida. We provide a beautiful setting with a relaxing spa and invigorating leisure facilities to create the perfect escape. I am thrilled to announce that the Guerlain Spa at Raffles London at The OWO has won the top accolade for Best New Spa at the Good Spa Guide™ Awards. The herbal sauna and aroma steam room use herbs, spices, and natural essences to rejuvenate your body and open your pores. The swimming pool is very slick, lined in gigantic amethyst crystals and with music playing underwater.

We were delighted to receive a record-breaking 412,526 consumer votes in this year's awards, confirming just how important our much-loved spas are for our health and wellbeing. Forget about old-fashioned charm or anything shabby chic: Coworth Park is a different beast entirely, with staff who wear headsets to communicate with each other and a veneer as polished as the fleet of Range Rovers in the drive (there are a lot of heels, lipstick and suits in the dining room). The winners of the 14th annual Good Spa Guide Awards have been announced at the Spa Life UK conference, held in the Cotswolds. It highlights the fact that we have a wider choice than many other spas, along with wonderful facilities and cutting edge treatments. Our Destination Spa will allow you to reset and refresh within a first-class natural surrounding teamed with our state-of-the-art facilities and bespoke treatments that will bring your body and mind back to its original source of wellness and balance.

Britain has no shortage of brilliant, big-hitting country-house hotels – and alongside deeply cosseting bedrooms, restaurants helmed by star chefs, and some of the UK’s prettiest countryside right on the doorstep, many are home to serious, results-driven spas too. Jan 2024 Spanish wellness brand, SHA Wellness Clinic, will open its first international outpost in Mexico today (26 January), in the first phase of its global expansion plans. This is deeply well thought-out, brilliantly light-touch wellness – with a generous smattering of understated countryside glamour to match.

We have had many questions asking us what the difference is between a four and five bubble rating… So, in this blog post we provide you with everything you need to know before you embark on your relaxation journey. A glorious selection of face and body treatments, carried out by highly trained spa therapists, utilise products by Elemis and VOYA and are the perfect compliment to trip to the Hall. Even the changing rooms are a treat to use, but don't leave your hairbrush behind – regardless of whether it's a Mason Pearson beauty or a seen-better-days Tangle Teezer, it will be taken by security guards, moved to the main hotel, and boxed up like precious jewellery for collection. Floor-to-ceiling windows overlook an impeccably landscaped garden and 24 acres of countryside in the charming village of Melbourne. This gorgeous converted farm near Barnstaple was created by reliably good vinyasa-flow yoga teacher Mercedes Ngoh Sieff and her husband Simon, your charming surfer host.The rainfall setting was particularly pleasant and varied from tropical storms to cold winter mists. General Manager of Hope Street Hotel Fiona Creed shares her and her team’s gratitude towards those who voted for them. It's fair to say that simply floating and larking about in the pools will annihilate stress, but the mineral-rich water is also a remedy in itself: good for dry skin, good for joint pain, good for muscle tension, arthritis and rheumatism. These are said to purify the air and provide health benefits such as boosting mood, enhancing sleep and improving breathing conditions.
