Comfort Zone has partnered with South Kensington Club (SKC) in London, a newly-opened luxury health club measuring 25,000sq ft (2,323sq m).

Complete with a gym, fitness studio, bathhouse, hammam, banya, saltwater Watsu pool, relaxation areas, tea library, restaurant and bars, the property is owned by hospitality and property entrepreneur Luca Del Bono – an advisor to operators including Baglioni Hotels, W Hotels, Hilton International and Corinthia Hotels.

The spa at the property has two 180sq ft (17sq m) treatment rooms and two additional 400sq ft (37sq m) therapy suites, a sauna, pool and terrace. There is also a beauty parlour for hair styling, tanning services, bridal and event beauty grooming and male treatments.

The design of the club was undertaken internally by del Bono, given his expertise in the property market. He co-founded lifestyle group Quintessentially in 2000 and launched several brand campaigns in the luxury sector for clients including Ermenegildo Segna and Harrods. Luca del Bono also set up Del Bono & Partners, a London property acquisition company, and a hospitality division – DB Hospitality. DB Hospitality developed the SKC concept and also operates properties in London including Mari Vanna restaurant in Knightsbridge and a hotel club at 50 St James’ Street.

Dr Davide Bollati, founder of Comfort Zone, commented: “SKC and Comfort Zone share a passion for the convergence of science and experience as key elements of a memorable, high performing spa offering.”

Seeking to promote a healthy and sustainable lifestyle, Comfort Zone has developed a unique menu of facials, body treatments and rituals – featuring the brand’s renowned Skin Regimen Longevity Programme.

Other brands at the property include those by celebrity barber Carmelo Guastella and tanning expert Amanda Harrington.
