Downstairs from LA Fitness (keep going past the people who look like they're about to die on the running machines) you'll find G-Spa. A world away from ab crunches and iron-pumping, this South Kensington retreat is a place to let go, unwind and de-stress. With treatment rooms designed for maximum calm, experienced therapists and an extensive range of facials, massages, wraps, scrubs and beautifying treatments, you can luxuriate in pure pampering. It's also the ideal stop-off for the busy girl (or guy - Will Smith goes here!) about town who needs to squeeze in a salt glow scrub in between a breakfast meeting and a looming deadline. Most treatments take less than an hour and even the ones that are longer can be tailored to fit in your lunch hour; so whether it's a Dermalogica deep cleansing facial or a quick nail fix you're after, G-Spa is the ultimate city spa. We can recommend the massages - from relaxing oils to knot-releasing pressure, the range caters for the top-to-toe tense to the practically asleep.
