the manicure was mini. but the therapist was great. and the facilities was wonderful. i would go back. lunch and manicure were good value. great way to spend an afternoon. even without a voucher its good value and a good venue to know.
This was absolutely lovely. I had a nice manicure, then had lunch in the restaurant of this 5 star boutique hotel near Hyde Park. The spa is tiny but all shiny and new and the restaurant is real fine dining. They do a set lunch 2 courses for £15 which includes coffee and homemade truffles so I will definitely be returning. A real treat for a tired mummy.
What a wonderful way to have a quick treat! Welcoming staff, comfortable, sumptious surroundings and attentive treatment. This was followed by a delicious lunch in the Athenaeum restaurant. The ambience was perfect. I would definitely revisit and have already recommended the spa and restaurant to my stressed friends who work in the West End. Well done to the staff for providing such a rewarding experience for us.
I bought an offer for a mini manicure with lunch, then upgraded it to Elemis deep tissue massage with 20% discount. I intended to use it all in one visit. Unfortunately, I was somehow only booked for a massage, as a girl "forgot" to book me for lunch. So I had to book another visit. The massage was very good if you like real pressure. Mani was really a light version while seating on a sofa in the hall. Lunch was good. When buying this offer you really do not save much, but it is a good introduction to this place. Though I did not see much to do there.
My experience was absolutely amazing. From the time I entered the hotel I knew I was in for a treat, the decor was so stunning and the staff were very friendly. The afternoon tea was out of this world, I thought I would not be able to move once I had finished and that was before the deserts arrived. The choice was brilliant and oh so delicious. After afternoon tea I had a manicure, the treatment area was so relaxing and comfortable. I was offered a drink and there were fresh fruit and nuts available, although I couldn't physically eat anything else. The manicure was lovely and the therapist made it even more worthwhile. She was friendly, warm and just made me feel so comfortable. After the manicure I was left to relax, and was not rushed out of the area. I had a fantastic time and will definitely be visiting this hotel again.
