Hatherley Manor hotel in Gloucester, UK, will open a new luxury day spa in early 2018 as part of plans to transform the hotel into a wellness destination.
The new £3m spa will include six luxury treatment rooms, a swimming pool with garden views, a vitality pool, a thermal suite, sensory showers, a sauna, steam-heated loungers, a relaxation room and a fitness club.
The spa will also boast its own private relaxation lounge, a rooftop terrace, an exclusive champagne bar and five luxury spa bedrooms with private balconies.
Once the spa has launched, Hatherley Manor will intensify its focus on wellness in its marketing. As part of the push, the hotel will begin offering spa staycation breaks.
Stephen Trowbridge, the hotel’s general manager, said: 'We’re all really excited about the launch of the spa, seeing the last couple years of planning now physically taking shape is fantastic for us.
“We believe that the addition of the spa will be a great addition to the hotel, our visitors but also the local residents and businesses that we serve.”
The independently owned, 51-bedroom Hatherley Manor is set in 37 acres of maintained grounds. The 17th century manor house is understood to have been originally built for the illegitimate son of Oliver Cromwell.
