The Harrogate spa, a new luxury destination spa, is set to open at DoubleTree by Hilton Majestic Hotel in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, towards the end of this year (2019).

Expected to open in November 2019, the spa forms a major part of the hotel's £15m renovation and is designed to celebrate Harrogate's rich 200-year history of spa treatments - drinking or bathing in the mineral waters of Harrogate was prescribed by doctors in the 19th century.

It will offer a wide range of restorative treatments alongside an expansive treatment menu of results-driven rituals from brand partners ESPA, Thalgo, Carita and Jessica Nails. Treatments will range from stress relieving and anti-ageing and will include holistic and mindful massages as well as nail services.

Facilities will include six treatment rooms, including two double treatment rooms, a 12.5 m (41.1 ft) indoor pool, as well as a number of therapeutic thermal experiences including a spa pool, Himalayan salt sauna, steam room, Rasul, experience shower, and ice fountain. A relaxation lounge, Zen and Courtyard Spa Garden, spa cafe and terrace and fully-equipped gym and studio complete the spa's offering.

Lynn Roach, spa director of The Harrogate Spa, said: "We are very excited to be launching The Harrogate Spa which will be the jewel in the crown of The Majestic Hotel. We have worked carefully to incorporate the rich heritage of our spa town location combining this with the latest in beauty and wellbeing and a world-class service from our spa team. We are very much looking forward to welcoming the first guests to our beautiful new spa later this year."

Matthew Hole, GM at The Majestic Hotel, added: "The development of The Harrogate Spa is an important part of our overall redevelopment at The Majestic as we take the hotel back to its Victorian heyday. We are extremely proud to be adding to the wellbeing benefits of our spa town location and positioning The Harrogate Spa as a leading destination spa, attracting visitors from far and wide."
