The boutique hotel, the Varsity Hotel & Spa in Cambridge, are launching their newly developed gymnasium and spa concept for 2014. The hotel is the ultimate in relaxed luxury and style; the riverside location, rooftop terrace, outstanding restaurant, full-service spa and modern décor combine to make this hotel amongst the most luxurious in Cambridge.Unlike many independent hotels that provide only a small gym offering, The Glassworks Spa at The Varsity is a destination wellness centre, equipped with a wealth of health care professionals to get guests up to speed on their healthy living goals with personal trainers, sports massage therapists, nutritionists, and even hairdressers and nail technicians for a 360 makeover!
Housed in a beautiful Eighteenth Century glass warehouse, the Conran-designed gym has been carefully designed to recreate a buzzing New York style space, with the latest equipment for an optimum work-out, with personalisation and social features. The kit incorporates touch screens to transport users to picturesque locations, enabling them to take a romantic cycle ride from Paris to Reims, or to make like Bradley Wiggins with a route through the beautiful Provence-Alpes-Cote d’Azur region with its challenging inclines.
2014 also sees the relaunch of the Spa area, with its signature Jacuzzi area that overlooks the river Cam: surely one of the most peaceful spots in all of Cambridge. Heated relaxation benches allow guests to wind down in a luxury mosaic tiled space, before heading into the sauna and steam area, lit to feel that guests are relaxing under twinkling stars.
