York Hall in London's Bethnal Green, site of some of the country's most famous boxing bouts, is set to become home to a new state-of-the-art spa facility. The £1.2 million Spa London, a joint project between the local council and Greenwich Leisure, will enable visitors to benefit from a whole host of treatments and therapies as they relax and unwind at the country's finest public sector spa, which is scheduled to open in the spring.
Spa London will be sited within the historic Victorian baths at York Hall Leisure Centre in Bethnal Green. Visitors will be able to enjoy a full thermal experience including, steam room, sauna and relaxation zone. Four treatment rooms will provide a comprehensive range of beauty treatments from international brands such as Thalgo, Jane Iredale and Jessica, all at affordable prices. Spa manager is Alex Smith, formerly in that role at the Old Course Hotel in St Andrews, Scotland, the 'home of golf'.
York Hall Leisure Centre's recent £4.2 million facelift has already seen a state-of-the-art gymnasium that doubled the size of the previous gym area, a revitalised reception area that enhances the building's original features and a refurbished pool, including new changing rooms.
