The Claremont Spa is a great place to go for some luxurious pampering. I wouldn't come here regularly, mainly because prices are off the charts. However, the Claremont is such a lovely, indulgent treat. I wouldn't regret spending any amount of money here, because the services are sooo worth it.

I had the pleasure of spending the evening at The Claremont and trying a few of their treatments. Every service provider was exceptional and they each seemed to be working at the Claremont 14-18 years. Awesome service! The women's bathing area is wonderful. Only issue is that I would have liked to spent time with the boyfriend in the jacuzzi (Men and Women's areas are separate) and a slight mix-up with one appointment due to confused front desk. All-in-all one of the best Spas I've visited and will return. *The Moor Mud Wrap was amazing.

Going to this hotel/spa is like going back on time. The staff is super friendly and the building is gorgeous. You can use the pre-spa when you get a service of $150 or more (pretty much any service will do). I was tempted to do 4.5 stars, because is kind of pricey, but they do give you a 5 start treatment.

Pampered!

I felt very pampered at my most recent visit. This is the second time that I have been to the Claremont and I received the same courteous friendly greeting that I received on my first visit. My masseuse was very communicative and explained what she was going to do during my treatment. My only comment would be to have a better explanation of the deluge shower. There were no signs, and I had to wait a while before the shower began. I used it right after someone else and am assuming the delay was in conjunction with the tank refilling itself. I was just about to get out of the shower in frustration, before I heard the rolling of the water. It was definitely worth the wait! :)

So far this is one of my top two favorite spas I've ever been too. Beautiful on the outside and beautiful on the inside. Despite being college age at the time, they treated us so kindly and respectfully. We felt like princesses! The massages were fantastic (I had an aromatherapy one) but the steam bath was a little too much. Steam I can handle, but heavily scented steam was a different story. For half the time, I was sticking my head out of the bath. Hahaha. But still, this is one of my favorite spas, and if I ever decide to treat myself again to something as nice as Claremont (and if I could get myself to drive that far), I'd choose this spa.
