Making Memories For Two

After taking in all the sights on offer throughout the picturesque grounds, we arrived to the warmest of welcomes at the grand reception of the impressive Hintlesham Hall. From there we were taken to the Spa to meet our therapists, Sophie and Isabella, who greeted us with a glass of Champagne. We were then led to the spa's stylish relaxation lounge to enjoy some further complimentary refreshments whilst completing the necessary health & safety documents.

After getting changed into the provided robes and slippers we received a full consultation from the therapists. Their attention to detail was second to none, ensuring we would receive a treatment best tailored to our needs. We opted to take our treatments together in the couple's treatment room, however you are welcome to opt for individual treatment rooms too. I opted for the 30-minute back, neck & shoulder massage, which lasted beyond the stated time and was by far the best massage I've received. From there we were able to enjoy some further relaxation in the private jacuzzi along with a cup of tea.

We finished off our day with a lovely traditional afternoon tea inside the elegant main building. This was not included within the experience but is highly recommended as it provides an additional opportunity to take in the beautiful architecture whilst enjoying a delicious array of cakes, scones and sandwiches.

Overall the quality of the venue and service was outstanding throughout. We really enjoyed this experience and would thoroughly recommend to anyone seeking a day of pampering and relaxation.

Upgrade to an Afternoon Tea and explore the beautiful grounds in the weather allows.

We were delighted to be given the opportunity to indulge in a day of relaxation in the centre of London. My partner and I decided to go for the Liverpool Street location which is a 5 minute walk away from the Liverpool Street train station. Upon arriving at the Montcalm Royal London House we were both very impressed by the beautiful buildings and 1st class service we received from the staff. We were directed to the spa (situated within the hotel on the bottom floor) and were greeted by a friendly staff member who quickly found our booking and offered us towels and slippers. Robes are also available to hire at £3 each. We were shown around the spa and took some time to check out the gym and pool before heading to the changing rooms where we got ready for our treatments. The changing rooms were lovely and clean with lockers provided for any valuables and large showers that included shampoos and moisturisers. We then headed to the treatment area and helped ourselves to some refreshing fruit infused water whilst we filled out the health and safety documents. Our therapists greeted us and took us into a double treatment room so we were able to relax together whilst receiving a 30-minute upper body massage. This was incredibly relaxing and set us up perfectly for 2 hours of chilling in the spa. We decided to start with the steam room and then spend time in the pool before heading to the jacuzzi. Throughout our session there was opportunities to grab refreshments such as water and fruit, and also lie on pool side beds and read magazines. We were lucky on the day we went as there were only a handful of others sharing the facilities! Once we were finished, we got dressed and headed out into London feeling extremely relaxed and rejuvenated, ready for an afternoon of site seeing in the Capital. All in all, a very relaxing day and I would highly recommend to anyone in need of some time away to fully pamper yourself!

Fully make use of the steam room and sauna facilities and follow the guidelines to really get the most out of the relaxation.

Upon arrival to the hotel, you will see the easy spotted signs leading you to the esprit spa. Once you have entered the spa the receptionist will give you towels and robes to change into. Now you will have some free time to relax and endure the 19m pool, steam room, sauna and a rather modern gym for you and your pal! You will have the choice of treatments being (back neck and shoulder massage, facial or nails) once you have chosen, your therapist will take you through and deliver your chosen treatment in one of their 3 beautifully decorated treatment rooms. In terms of relaxation I have never felt so relaxed after a spa day, the facilities were large and very clean which is of upmost importance to myself and the treatment was adapted to my needs and catered to me very well. Already booked an overnight stay to come back on the 7th of June, it was that good!
