Latest Review

This was my first time spa experience so I remained open-minded and wanted to see if my experience would be worthwhile. I read the reviews but seeing is believing and everyone has individual expectations. I was on a 40th birthday treat and I can say that the spa experience delivered on all counts. I left there forgetting I was in cold rainy England and felt I should have emerged from the tranquility of the venue to stroll on a sun laden beach! The venue is close to Shepherds Bush tube/overground station. It's about 5 mins walk and you have Westfield Shopping Centre so nearby to get a bit to eat or to shop till you drop.
The spa staff were welcoming and accommodating. The therapists allowed me to do a 1 hr pedicure with my friend as opposed to having 2 consecutive appointments. Even though I made a week's advanced request for it, they were unable to confirm it would go ahead until I actually arrived there.
I had a great time: from the time we arrived. You are supplied with a gown and slippers and you have an ample supply of towels.While we sipped a glass of champagne and were given a bar of white chocolate, we were in heaven having the foot treatment. You can chose your nail colour from a wide range of Opi colours and the chocolate foot treatment smells and feels good enough to eat. We leisurely used the spa facilities. After the treatment you are taken to the rest room which is divine that you can nod easily not wanting to do anything else as you are so chilled out. You have a supply of water and fruit in this room and can listen to chill-out music using their headphones. If you want a good read, take your own book and/supply of magazines. You need to ask a staff member to give you access to this room if you choose to leave it and want to re-enter.
One tip is to go armed with your body scrubs and hair shampoo and conditioner if you use particular products. They have a good hairdryer and GHD tongs to use. I presume that they have more than one of each when it gets busy there.
The snow room (the only one in London) is great to use in between use of the sauna, hydrotherapy pool, steam room and sanarium. Apparently the snow gets rid of cellulite so we were vigorously rubbing it on our thighs like mad!!
You can come and go as you please when you have the use of the spa faciilities for the day. I went on a Wednesday and it was practically empty but the time I got around using the spa facilities. It is unisex so take some decent swimwear with you. Hotel residents and eternal customers use the facilities.
I have recommended it to all of my girlfriends. I would definitely return again. I am a stickler for cleanliness and the venue did not disappoint in that regard.I can see now for myself why the reviews I previously read all say that they'd want to re-visit this place. I left there relaxed, chilled-out and wanting more. I have a great night's sleep that night too.
