Spa hotels in the UK

For some people, rest, relaxation and a good dose of pampering are what a few days in a hotel are all about, and we reckon that the UK's spa hotels and venues for healthy, beauty and wellness are a match for anywhere in the world. In many cases, you don't even have to leave your hotel room – which is perfect for special romantic occasions or just some unadulterated self-indulgence. Most luxury spa hotels in the UK have facilities ranging from hydrotherapy pools and indoor pools to steam rooms and saunas; most provide massages of all kinds, from Thai to Swedish, as well as a wide range of beauty treatments; and they also almost always have a great restaurant too, serving high-end yet healthy food. You can usually rest assured that you'll sleep in an ultra comfy bed, wake up to a first-class breakfast and leave feeling a million dollars. Take a look at our collection of luxury spa hotels and treat yourself or a loved one to a well-deserved spa break.

FAQs: Spa Hotels

What does spa mean in hotels?

At the very least a Spa will mean your hotel provides access to treatments like massages, facials and other beauty therapies. Usually there will also be a sauna and steam room, a plunge pool or proper swimming pool, as well as other benefits like fitness classes, a gym and specialist therapies like reiki, hydrotherapy and floatation pods. Some spas have a café or restaurant serving healthy food and drink, and a lounge where you can chill out in your bathrobe for as long as you like, and they almost always have a shop where you can buy the products that they use in the spa.

What are the characteristics of a spa hotel?

Hotels with spas are usually medium-to-large hotels that emphasize the pampering part of the hotel experience –º not just in the spa but across the hotel’s othe facilities They don’t tend to be business hotels, nor are they boutique hotels (although some boutique hotels do offer modest spa facilities), but they may be ‘resort hotels’, with a host of other facilities, often targeted at families. Rooms will tend to have bathrobes as standard, and there will often be a swimming pool as well. Among our favourite spa hotels are Ockenden Manor in Sussex, which has a spectacular modern spa with everything you need, including a swimming pool that is part indoor, part outdoor. Careys Manor Hotel in the New Forest, also has a great spa, with a Thai restaurant attached, while Whatley Manor in Wiltshire has won awards for its best eco-conscious spa and pool.

What spa and leisure facilities can I expect?

You can often expect some sort of pool, a sauna and steam room or hammam, a café or restaurant focused healthy eating, and a lounge where you can chill out in your bathrobe, and they always have a shop where you can buy spa and beauty products. There will always be treatment rooms – either single, or double which you can enjoy with your partner – where you can get a massage and all sorts of beauty treatments and sometimes a gym where you can spin classes, pilates and other fitness classes, as well as reiki and other alternative therapies. The Swan at Lavenham has a small, discreet spa, while the spa at The Brimstone in the Lake District is the perfect end to a day in the Great Outdoors - as are the brand-new spa facilities at the Devonshire Hotel in North Yorkshire.
