5 Bristol Spas to Book for Your Next Wellness Day
Looking for the best spa days in Bristol? Whether you’re planning a girls’ day, a birthday treat or just need a proper switch-off, there are some brilliant spa options in and around the city.
From city-centre treatments to full spa days with pools, saunas and steam rooms, these are five Bristol spas to have on your radar.
1. Aztec Hotel and Spa
If you want the full spa-day experience, Aztec Hotel and Spa is a strong place to start.
Just outside central Bristol, it’s a great option for a relaxed girls’ day or a proper switch-off without travelling too far. Expect classic spa facilities, treatments and plenty of opportunity to spend a few hours doing very little.
2. Harbour Hotel Bristol
Want to combine a spa day with cocktails, dinner or a wander around the city? Harbour Hotel Bristol puts you right in the heart of Bristol.
The underground HarSPA makes this one feel particularly atmospheric, with thermal and pool facilities alongside treatments. We love it for turning a few hours of relaxation into a full Bristol day out — spa first, food and drinks afterwards.
3. Foxhills Spa at Old Down Estate
For something that feels more removed from city life, head to Foxhills Spa at Old Down Estate.
Set within the countryside outside Bristol, this is one for when you want things to feel a little slower. Think spa time, green surroundings and a proper opportunity to catch up with your best friend, mum or someone you haven’t seen enough of lately.
4. PURE Spa & Beauty Bristol
Sometimes you don’t need a full day beside the pool — you just need a really good treatment and a couple of hours dedicated entirely to yourself.
PURE Spa & Beauty Bristol on Park Street is more treatment-led than a traditional hotel spa, making it a good choice for massages, facials and beauty treatments right in the city centre.
Book yourself in solo or meet a friend for treatments before heading out for lunch afterwards. Consider it the low-effort version of a wellness day.

5. Bannatyne Health Club & Spa Bristol
If your idea of a spa day involves plenty of time moving between the pool, sauna and steam room, Bannatyne Health Club & Spa Bristol is an easy Bristol option.
Alongside its leisure facilities, you can add treatments to make the day feel a little more indulgent. It’s a good choice for a relaxed catch-up with a friend when your main requirements are very simple: robes, treatments and as few responsibilities as possible.
✨A little further out, but worth the trip✨
The Royal Crescent Hotel & Spa, Bath
If you’re happy to venture beyond Bristol, The Royal Crescent Hotel & Spa in Bath is one to save for when you want something extra special.
Set within Bath’s iconic Royal Crescent, it has all the ingredients for a properly indulgent spa day — beautiful surroundings, plenty of relaxation and the added bonus of being able to make a whole day of it in Bath.
This is the one we’d save for birthdays, celebrations, special girls’ days or simply when you want to upgrade your usual Sunday plans.
It’s a little further out, but absolutely worth the trip.
Ready for a spa day, Bristol Girl?
Spa days are always a favourite across the City Girl community, and we can see why. They give you a reason to actually put some time aside for yourself — whether that means a full day by the pool, a countryside escape or simply booking the massage you’ve been talking about for months.
And you definitely don’t need to wait for a birthday to justify one.
