My friend took me here for a spa day as a treat for my birthday. The package included a 20 minute massage and afternoon tea - plus access to all the spa facilities.
The massage was quite nice, not very deep, but she did concentrate on my neck and shoulders as I asked, and I left feeling relaxed. We then went on to try all the other "facilities".
There was a small sauna in the ladies' locker room that was good, but a bit busy, and the only other thing we could find was a hot tub outside on a balcony, overlooking the race track. We braved the frankly horrid weather and got into the hot tub. We could not get it started - neither could the staff when we finally tracked them down. So basically we were sitting in a warm bath, in the rain, in full view of a stag party racing around the Mercades driving track. It just didn't quite work for me.
The afternoon tea was perfectly nice - it just felt a little odd being the only ones there for it and as we were tucked out of sight round the corner, I had to track someone down to ask for more hot water for the tea.
I enjoyed it and I might come back to the hotel for a meal or drinks if the opportunity arose, but i probably wouldn't bother with their spa facilities again. read more
