I am a massage therapist and generally against large spas for bodywork . When 3 of my friends came into town and wanted a spa day I was reluctant but ended up pleasantly suprised ! My massage was one of the best I've ever had, not the usual weak, slathering of lotion most spa/hotel therapist deliver.I loved the complimentary hot towel foot wash at the end - no greasy feet! The 2 hour facial was amazing! It's much more than just your ordinary facial- foot bath,massage,lyphatic therapy in 2 hours of total relaxation.Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable but down to earth, not all about pushing products constantly.Also, we enjoyed the private room they have for small groups (a great place to chat and sip complimentary tea or wine) and the steam room.They also have a gym and yoga studio that we could have used ,but we got side tracked by the wine! The beautiful historic building added the final touch of decadence. This place is worthy, special occasion or not.
