I got this for my newlywed friends as a wedding gift they loved it!
They enjoyed the privacy and the view was gorgeous. They felt relaxed and refreshed when they came out.
Beautiful spa, very relaxing experience. They were running 30 minutes late but I was able to use the steam room and sauna so the time flew. After the treatment, the relaxation room is top notch, very chilled.
This was a great find and very good value. I did the spa day with my mum and we both had a lovely relaxing time. The facial was one of the best I've had and was prescribed specifically to my skin type. I really liked the experience showers as they were more enjoyable than a normal harsh cold shower. My only critism would be that they didn't stick to the appointment times I was told and I stayed later than I intended but I didn't mind spending more time in the relaxation room watching the dome as the sun set.
This spa is tucked away, but don't let the location deter you. The experience is fabulous, and you are bound to feel that you are a world away from the hectic pace of London. My friend and I arrived early and received a warm greeting from the friendly staff. We were then given lovely light and soft cotton robes and fluffy towels and shown to the changing rooms which were very clean, spacious, and secure (we kept our valuables in lockers)
Between treatments, we relaxed on heated beds in the relaxation room, where we could see the river and the millennium dome as part of its panoramic view (don't worry, there are blinds so no one can see in!) It was very quiet and there were complimentary glasses of water and a selection of herbal teas. My only complaint was that the selection of newspapers magazines was rather inadequate.
The treatment rooms are spacious yet warm and inviting. I have never been in a treatment room with black walls, but the candles and the soft lighting enhanced the experience and eliminated the sanitized, clinical feel that many spas suffer from.
My friend and I each received a salt rub and a massage. Our therapists were courteous, polite, and highly skilled. They asked us both what we would like from our experience (ie areas to focus on or avoid) and ensured that we were comfortable throughout. We were given ample time to get up from the tables after the treatments, though I think we both would have been happy falling asleep right then and there on the heated massage beds!
Top marks for this place! I will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a special, relaxing day
I went to the east river spa for the first time and absolutely loved every thing about it. Me and my partner went for our anniversary and it was soo worth while. We had great assistance from the receptionist and our therapist. A little change from their side and we were given an extra complimentary 1hour couple massage for a next visit. What more could you ask for. I would recommend east river spa to who ever is looking for a supereb experience. The location and the spa it self is very ideal and in a good location. It was very clean in all the rooms we used. If you are looking to have a good time. Book this place. Iv already booked my next visit. Can't wait...... :)
