The Grosvenor Spa is at the heart of it all and there are 5 luxury treatment rooms, relaxation area, steam room, herb sauna, ice fountain, foot spa, themed shower, salt grotto, a make up and manicure station and a fitness centre for residents.

lobbyThe lobby is spacious and elegant with marble flooring. You get a real sense of elegance and class the moment you walk into the hotel.
exteriorThe hotel was originally opened in 1865 and is now a Grade 2 listed building of historic and architectural interest. The exterior is an immensely distinctive black and white timbered facade. This very much belies the modern elegance of the hotel interior.
