Six Senses to open London hotel and spa in 2023

Hotel group Six Senses will open its first UK branch in 2023, which will feature a luxury spa.

The property, which will be in the former Whiteleys department store in Bayswater, London, will comprise 110 guest rooms and suites, as well as a spa focused on holistic wellness, rejuvenation and beauty treatments.

The interior design will be “reminiscent of an old-fashioned London underground station”, and the spa facilities will include a 20m indoor swimming pool, Alchemy Bar, relaxation room with vaulted ceilings and 3,500m space dedicated to fitness.

Six Senses said the client journey will be designed to “mirror the different energies of city life, from the sensory stimulation and movement of the street, to the stillness and calm of a quiet café or park”. Six Senses London members will also have access to an exclusive social and wellness club.

This is the first UK property for the renowned spa hotel group, which is based in Thailand. However, Six Senses does have three other European properties, in France, Portugal and Turkey.
