Spa and Leisure Facilities

Opposite Windsor Castle stands The Harte and Garter Hotel and below the Hotel sits The Stables Spa – A converted 200 year old stable block. In the past king’s and queen’s horses rested here and now this is a special retreat for sophisticated spa breaks.

You will melt under the fingertips of the highly skilled therapists who perform a vast menu of treatments with technique and panache. The Thermal Suite is designed to cleanse and detox the body and stimulate circulation. For maximum effect it is recommended that you use the facilities in the following order…

It is always good to shower first so head to the Experience Showers, each varying in temperature and scent. Then they suggest the Crystal Steam Room followed by The Finnish Sauna and the Hydro Pool. To close the pores you should then visit the Bucket Shower. Finally enter the Rasul Chamber to apply special mud to your body, face, and hair, where steam then encourages the vitamins and minerals to be absorbed.

Accommodation

After a relaxing day at The Stables Spa you can continue to relax and unwind in the tranquillity of your own room. Each of the 79 guestrooms boasts marble fireplaces and solid dark wood furnishings alongside all the modern amenities such as Satellite flat screen TVs and complimentary wireless internet. From some rooms you can even watch the changing of the guards! If you desire to lie back in a luxurious roll top bath or four poster bed, you can upgrade to a Premiere Room.

The Tower Brasserie and Tea Room open for breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week. Here the skilled Executive Chef creates traditional British dishes using local seasonal produce. Take your time to examine the comprehensive wine list; there is much on offer in there. Afternoon Tea is sheer British delight at The Tower, with sandwiches, home baked scones served with clotted cream and jam as well as daily delicacies to feast upon.

Local Knowledge

Windsor Castle is opposite the hotel, a walk in Windsor Great Park, Savill Gardens or Kew is always glorious or you could hire a boat on the River Thames. Legoland Windsor, Hampton Court and Ascot Racecourse are just a short drive away. For golfers there’s Sunningdale and Wentworth and for rugby fans there’s Twickenham.
