A weekend of bliss for us only snag was some of the relax rooms were a bit wgiffy

I think perhaps I've become a bit of a 'London Snob' because I assumed Titanic would be nice, but surely the ones in London would be better? Wrong! Titanic Spa is truly excellent, and certainly not a poor northern imitation. I booked an overnight stay for Mrs D and myself for her Christmas present, originally pencilled in for Valentine's Day (that's right, two presents in one. Smooth right?) but due to some pregnancy related issues, we needed to move the booking to her birthday weekend in October. The bookings team were great at accommodating the change, and did so at no extra cost. When we arrived, we changed into our fluffy brown dressing gowns (I think there is only one size, so I looked a bit ridiculous, as if I was wearing a child's gown, but I was determined to be chilled) and checked out the facilities. Our apartment was really tastefully converted into a split-level 1 bed, with a double height ceiling in the lounge and a mezzanine bedroom. Who doesn't want a balcony inside their apartment? I think if you looked to rent this place in central London, it would cost upwards of £1200 per month! The spa itself has all of the facilities you might expect, and some you maybe wouldn't. Different types of steam rooms, with varying aromas, plunge pools, the ice bucket, multiple saunas, a 15m swimming pool with a swim-in jacuzzi, an OUTDOOR hot tub (which I didn't use, I mean come on, it's October) and even a mudding chamber (charged extra) so you can feel like Louis Litt from Suits. The unexpected highlight for me though was the food. I had a tasty prawn linguine at lunch time, but the belly pork and black pudding I had for dinner was sublime! We each had 3 treatments. We started with a 1 hour full body massage in the VIP room together which was nice, I opted for a deep tissue massage to get the baby-related knots out and it felt quite nice, but I enjoyed the facial much more which surprised me. It was so relaxing! We both then booked our 3rd treatments, Mrs D had a hand moisturising treatment, I opted for another back and shoulder massage, just to get the last few knots out! After an uninterrupted 9 hour sleep, (something we haven't had for 12 weeks) we checked out and made our way to Huddersfield train station (£6 in a taxi) feeling well and truly refreshed! When I thought of luxury and relaxation, Huddersfield wasn't at the forefront of my mind before, but it is now! read more

Titanic Spa - The only thing unrelaxing, was trying to fit my 6ft6 self into the show in our apartment! #TooTall - Skin Care Near Me - Huddersfield, XWY

Titanic Spa is a relatively new leisure centre, located about an hour from Manchester, just outside Huddersfield. It occupies about half of an old converted mill, the other half of which is split between apartments and a site still awaiting development. The surrounding area is nice enough for a country walk, though not beautiful. Once inside the spa though, you certainly wont be leaving until you have to. An overnight stay at the Spa begins with a cup of coffee in the reception once you've changed into the luxury dressing gown that you wont be taking off all day. You then receive a quick tour of the Spa before you're left to relax in its tranquillity. The main Spa area features several varieties of Sauna and Steam Rooms, including a mixture of the two, as well as an aromatherapy room and an ice room. There's also a row of Jacuzzi footbaths with luxury shampoos and bubble bath to try. Finally, there's an ice pool and a bucket of ice water attached to the ceiling that you can drop over your head (its well nice!). Apart from the main spa, there's also the swimming pool room, which contains yet another sauna and steam room (these ones much hotter). Though they don't actually have a Jacuzzi, a part of the pool is filled with bubbles that you can operate with a button on the side. My favourite part of the spa experience has to be the relaxation room. It's a large space full of beanbags and comfortable chairs, sofas and beds for all your lounging needs. Its heated and has a video of a fire playing on a flat screen and an ice-cold water machine. The rooms themselves are amazing. They have two floors, with the bedroom at the top overlooking the lounge and kitchen. You could easily stay for a long time as the kitchen has all the required facilities including an oven, a dishwasher and a washing machine. There's a beautiful glass topped breakfast table, perfect for a champagne breakfast and croissants, cereals, jams and juice are provided. The overnight stay includes lunch and dinner as well, and whilst neither was particularly special, there were no complaints. The bar/restaurant area also stocks some nice beers and reasonably priced sparkling wines and champagnes. Everyone disappears after dinner but you can take a bottle back to your room. All this was around £135 for two of us because we got a buy one get one free from lastminute.com. However, when we got there we realized there are often deals available direct from the spa, so its quiet reasonable at all times. I thoroughly recommend a visit. read more

See all

My Dad, under my supervision,bought my mum and 'a friend' a spa day. Naturally I took the opportunity to try this out. The spa is in an old mill, with many apartments. I didnt stay but well worth it if you get a good offer. The spa itself was very nice, lots of different steam & sauna rooms. Access to a large swimming pool & relaxation room. The food was good and the setting very relaxing. All round good buy if you can take advantage of one of their deals. I did feel that it could get a bit overcrowded. As they run so many promotions there are peak times during the day when you feel there are alot of people milling around. They have a wide variety of treatments, some are quite pricy but quality and expertise is high. If you want to treat yourself or a friend/family member definately worth checking out. read more

Had a fantastic day at the Titanic Spa in Feb 2010! Myself and my friend had a lovely relaxing day on the Heat experience and we also had an additional treatment with the mud. The spa is set in an old mill building, packages can include overnight stays and the accommodation looks lovely. The staff are polite, helpful and friendly. The Spa and areas we were in were clean and tidy and there was a plentiful supply of clean fresh and warm towels. The package we booked also included a buffet lunch which had a vegitarian option, potatoes, rice and different salads and a good selection of drinks, hot cold and alcohol if you fancy. The salt water pool was very nice and although the gym was small it was adequate. It was only available from 11am for non members of the gym. The food was tasty and fresh. We treated ourselves to afternoon tea too later on and the scones were still warm and fluffy! Yum! All the different heat experiences were good and we both thought it was the best spa day experience we have had so far. There are sometimes offers on through travel zoo or lastminute.com which can be excellent value. Would definately recommend to a friend and visit again :) read more

This place is really not bad at all. The facilities are good and whilst it was busy you really didn't struggle with getting the use out of anything you wanted to. The girls at the reception desk seem to be very well practised at managing a busy influx of people. You don't actually book the time for your treatment until you arrive which on thinking is a very good idea as it also allows you to add to your treatments should you wish. We stayed overnight here in one of the apartments and had our lunch and evening meal included in the offer that we booked as well as a massage and the mud chamber. Food - truly excellent. Especially the evening meal and they were good at accommodating if there was something you didn't like on your plate. Service - good at the reception, restaurant and spa. Not excellent but good. Facilities - 4/5 and there seemed to be plenty to go around. The swimming pool was large and a lovely temperature. It was also open from 7am which Is great if you like a morning swim. The heat experience area is large and has lots of different experiences to try. Plenty of changing facilities. Towels everywhere. Robes acceptable everywhere which is fab. Showers have shampoo and conditioner and hair dryers are provided. Spa treatments - good. I would say 4/5 again. The therapist I had was ok but she didn't seem as confident and competent as other therapists I've had before. My friend said exactly the same when she came out of her treatment. Apartment - the apartments are lovely. Well proportioned and split over a mezzanine with the bedroom up top. While I was impressed with it and the balcony outside overlooking the river my friend and I hardly slept a wink! It was ROASTING! Like you felt you were sleeping in a desert. They provide a fan which does hee haw to be honest so it put a dampener on the whole experience. Would I come back here? Yes definitely. I would also recommend you try it to. read more

Not the best spa ever. They have a good range of treatments, but the quality of therapists is very mixed. I went with a friend & we booked together so we could spend the day together, but they were running behind, so our treatments didn't coincide properly, & rather than explaining this they just let us wait & wonder where each other were! They had a really nice relaxation room with beanbags etc, though wasn't the easiest to relax when wondering whether your friend has been kidnapped by aliens! If you're looking for a spa in the area I'd recommend Easthorpe Hall over Titanic any day. read more

Cant fault it. So very reasonable and very kind and helpful staff. I cant wait for my next visit ! The apartments are fantastic, the food is excellant ! read more

Titanic is built inside an old mill building. Four of us visited here as part of a birthday treat, and enjoyed every minute of it!! Most of the staff seem very competent and knowledgeable, but laid back/approachable...different from other health spas. i was also impressed to learn that Titanic has it's own bore hole water supply, solar panels and a chlorine-free pool. we loved the hot-cold-hot treatments, very invigorating!! As another reviewer said, it's not the very best spa i've visited but for a pampering treat not too far from home it's worth it. KAT. read more

Had a wonderful overnight stay with facial and use of heat experience, meals etc. Couldn't fault it so surprised about other negative reviews. Heat experience was wonderful and very clean. Staff nice mostly. Only downside was slightly snotty person on reception but sorted by another staff member. All in all a wonderful experience and highly recommended. Loved it. read more

I went to Titanic Spa on a half price offer and in this context it would be more like 2 stars but I would never pay full price. Even at half price I am not likely to go back. Compared to the hushed, peaceful luxury of other spas I've been to Titanic Spa had the atmosphere of the council leisure centre. In the Heat Experience, people were chatting at normal volume and shrieking in the cold water pools etc. The chill out room, which should have been a relaxing area, is too near the reception and restaurant area and people were still chatting. The staff talked at normal volume when introducing people to the room, which sets the tone that it's OK to talk. It just felt like a fancy leisure centre and didn't have the atmosphere of a spa. The quality of staff was mixed but they were generally friendly. It was the atmosphere and lack of quietude that was really disappointing and why I will not be going back. Shame. read more

I was a member of this club for a year or so. the gym is great, small but of high quality,you are given a data key for your locker and to keep yur excersize informaion on to be used in each machine. each peice of gym equipment is top of the range and programmed to suit your needs, the memory key can be used on each machine and sets it automatically to your pre planned regime. the trainers are knowlageble and friendly. the faciliteis are clean and high standard. I am a hoistic therapist so perhaps am a bit bias, but personally having had treatments here I must say they are over priced, but ok if your just visiting on a one off spa day for a treat. the restaurant is a total dissapointment, and once again massively overpriced for what you get. nice swimming pool if only a bit small, but most dissapointing is the jazuzzi which is the same warmish temperature as the pool, as is just a sectioned off part of the same swimming pool. All in al, i found i got much better facilities and value for money at a different health club so I cancelled my membership. read more

This is a great place to treat your loved one! From a short taster evening to a whole day, there is something for everyone. Relaxing facials, pedicures and massages, invigorating iced water treatments, mud baths, saunas, a hydrozone pool and a techno gym. Not cheap, but worth it for a spot of pampering, and they often have offers - on the taster evenings you can get your money back in goods if you buy the lotions and potions they used for your treatment. And after your treatments you can relax in the restaurant and enjoy something from the healthy but tasty menu. Last time I was there you could have an Indian head massage in the foyer. read more

On first approaching titanic spa, it may look slightly disappointing as it is an old converted mill and not to everyone's tastes. But as soon as we went inside, we were greeted and seated and the staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. Its modern and spacious inside, with separate rooms to cater for all your needs. You are given a robe and slippers to make you feel at home and have a schedule, planned out for you, to relax and re-energise your mind body and spirit. Treatments are very good, and definitely value for money. The spa rooms are fantastic, you feel like you're in another country. There's also a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, garden and a relaxing room with cushions/candles/sofas/loungers. Lunch and evening meal was absolutely amazing, it's worth going just for the food. You can also stay in the luxary apartments if you want to make your experience extra special. Perfect for a birthday or girly gathering. read more

Dirty (even at 9am the toilets were disgusting), over booked, which they actually admitted, so not enough lockers, wet towels left all over the place, hair on the floors and all around the pool (which was not very warm)! Were made to wear the robe for the tour, even though we would have preferred to stay in our casual clothes, which includes walking right through the middle of the restaurant - hygienic? ... I don't think so! Miserable and unhelpful staff! Only one changing cubicle. We had gone for the day but left at 2pm! Approached the desk to settle our account to be told we had nothing outstanding. 3 days later we got a rude and snotty call informing us that we had 'just walked out without paying'! On explaining the situation they accepted it was their error and perhaps a 'new member of staff was on the desk that day'!! Desserts are not included with the meal and the food is very average and you only get a side plate which is too small. The head massage however, was excellent. Having visited other spas in the UK this is no-where near the standard I would have expected. Very disappointed. read more
