Day spa in Winchester

“Jack was fantastic. I have curly red hair which has always been difficult to work with. Plus, I'm fairly lazy with my hair routine and I needed something different that I could work with long-term. He took the time to listen to what I wanted, gave his thoughts and suggested a variety of options for me to choose from. Thoroughly recommend. Fairly priced, lovely atmosphere, good coffee (very important) and great attention to detail. Plus, despite being a busy Saturday, I never felt rushed out of there. Thanks again.”

“I stay in a lot of hotels across the UK, and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Winchester. That said, breakfast service could be improved. While the sign asks guests to wait to be seated, I found myself waiting around 10 minutes, even as the host walked past. It felt like the host’s attention was elsewhere rather than prioritising guests (I didn’t catch his name, but this was during my stay this week). Overall, a lovely stay, but a smoother breakfast experience would make it even better.”

“After reading some of the reviews I was hesitant to continue with my reservation, After deciding to make up my own mind we arrived for our 1 night spa experience. The location is nice with a well presented building and lots of parking. Our experience started well. We had a massage booked in for 10am and arrived in plenty of time. Reception guided us to the spa reception and we were welcomed with smiles and helpful staff. Things got a little shaky when we were laying down for our massage waiting when we were informed our "therapist" has been involved in a car accident and if we wouldn't mind to rearrange our treatment for later in the day, while disappointed due to us having arrived early specifically for that allocated time slot we were given a new time slot of 5 pm ,this allowed us to enjoy the facilities through the whole day while our room became available (3pm check in ) The spa despite reviews to the contrary was well kept, clean and all facilities were open. While it's not a brand new spa (others clearly want new whever they go) it was sufficient for our needs..I would suggest to the team at the hotel to get more loungers around the pool. ( A jacuzzi would be very welcomed by your guests) We were miss informed about lunch time facilities ( we were told only afternoon tea available, but that was just for the Winchester restaurant on site and not the gallery bar, staff could have informed us that the other bar served light lunches as we ended up in the local garden centre for lunch which was very nice btw. (Hotel lost out on our business for lunch) The afternoon check in was efficient and our room was lovely,Clean and stylish. Bathroom nice and clean with an elegant decor. Unfortunately the bed wasn't to my preference but everybody is different. We got our massage at the new time and was exactly what we needed. The "therapist's" did a great job and exceeded our expectations , well done ( not many can actually deliver a firm massage and get the knots out of my back). The food was lovely (evening meal and breakfast), The staff were friendly and attentive. So thank you to Botley park for a pleasant stay and well needed break.”

“A great pool to swim in. A good length and width for some strokes. Exceptionally clean water with slight amounts of dirt in the corners (it is very normal to see this). The changing rooms and bathrooms were very clean with intuitive lockers and a swimwear drying machine. There were lots of reclining chairs to lounge in (a good distance away from the splash zone). There were lots spa was very clean. An amazing place to go!”

“I have been seeing Ruth for well over a year now. Her knowledge and experience shine through and she always gives expert advice on all the different options available. As I am no ‘spring chicken’ she totally understands that I need to look the absolute best for my age but without anybody noticing! The advice on my skin care regime has been fabulous as I suffer with roseacre. Ruth is an exceptionally kind and caring person. I would never go anywhere else and can highly recommended Ruth and the Simply Skin Clinic.”

“Went in for a gel removal and Sophie had a bit of time to reapply and do some gorgeous nail art for me. I wanted something that could go through Xmas into New Year and she didn't disappoint!”

“I have been coming to ASH regularly for a few years now. The ladies are delightful and the treatments always excellent and good value. I can’t recommend highly enough!”

“Giuseppe has been cutting my hair for years and I was more than happy to be a model for his wife Veronika, whom he is training. She cut my hair beautifully, under Giuseppe’s instruction, and I’m delighted with the results.”

“Excellent massage by the wonderful Abbey. A warm welcome on arrival and a great full body massage, tailored to requirements. Would highly recommend to anyone attending the gym or otherwise, who need some time to recoup. 5 stars”

“I’m so pleased with my new nails(Cateye effect) It’s always a pleasure coming to Hollywood woods to discover new options Linda and her team are so friendly and accommodating.”

“I’ve visited for a few treatments now and I’m so happy with the results! The clinic staff are lovely too!”
