Spa & Leisure
Surrounded by acres of scenic grounds, the spa at The Westerwood Spa & Golf Resort underwent a £500,000 renovation in 2016 that made it one of the best spas in central Scotland. Seductive, tranquil and contemporary, the spa and the leisure facilities are in the same building but remain separate in style and atmosphere. There’s a pool, sauna, steam room, whirlpool, relaxation room, experience shower and gym in the fitness area, while the spa now includes a dedicated consultation space, a rasul mud therapy suite, a huge relaxation chamber with up to 30 loungers, and a pop-up restaurant for the exclusive use of spa guests.
In addition, there are now eight treatment rooms including two double suites and all pre-existing public areas have also been renovated. Therapists offer a collection of treatments and therapies.
Hotel & Accommodation
A short distance from Glasgow, The Westerwood Hotel and Golf Resort has 148 rooms, surrounded by an 18-hole golf course, which dominates the view from all the public areas of the hotel and most of the bedrooms as well.
Snacks are served in the bar and lounge area, and the main restaurant is a friendly environment serving characteristically Scottish food. Like everything at the hotel, it is very modern and staff are extremely accommodating.

Despite checking more than once, on arrival, about our booked (booked since Oct/Nov) Spa times, they were overbooked and didn't have enough robes. The hotel are offering so many great 'day spa' deals that it feels like they're not equipped to cope and the facilities become less chill and more frantic and noisy. I think we'll be forced to choose a different venue next January which is such a shame. There were assumptions that as a group of friends we would take double spa rooms, which we didn't want and communication about being 'overbooked' was abrupt despite as stated, checking and double checking. It could have been handled far better.
There were a couple of things that let this trip down which unfortunately neither the hotel nor the spa team seemed too bothered about. I got a phone call at 2:20 the day we arrived to say that we couldn’t use the spa facilities due to a water problem, there weren’t any robes either due to the water issue. Also the spa had changed from ESPA to Elemis which we hadn’t been advised about. Disappointed
My friend and I attended a spa day using a voucher from spabreaks.com.
When we arrived the staff booked us in a talked us through the day. They also checked if our afternoon tea was at a suitable time. This had been pre-booked and they happily moved it to an earlier time so we could eat and relax a bit before our treatments. Afternoon tea was lovely - sandwiches, a scone each and some cakes, with a mocktail alongside our tea. We both had the face and back ritual treatment which lasted 60 minutes and was bliss. We enjoyed the relaxation room and stayed there for some time after our treatment and again after our swim. It was a fantastic day.
My sister and I visited the spa at the Westerwood Hotel, Cumbernauld. The sign advised not to leave valuables in the locker, which is strange, as you would imagine that a PIN lock would be secure. We were advised by regular users that the lockers fail on a regular basis and the assistant has to come to open them. It is wise not to leave valuables in them, as my sister had been trying the wrong locker and had it opened, only to find that it belonged to someone else. The glasses in the spa were gritty on the outside - they didn't feel clean. The spa treatments were very good.
Myself and my sister came for a spa day as it was the first anniversary of losing our mum. We could not have chosen a better place to spend the day.
The treatments were excellent and totally relaxed us. the afternoon tea was nice but no way could we finish it, the choices were great though.
The swimming area and steam room area was excellent
All staff were courteous and aimed to please, you never feel rushed by anyone. We love the relaxation room particularly. We highly commend the staff for their handling of the fire alarm going off right at the start of our massage treatment. We were all evacuated professionally and assured that we wouldn't miss a minute of our treatment time which we didn't. But that must have meant staff staying late that day. I hope the hotel rewards them for their thoughtful response to customers in this crisis.
Masseuse and massage was fantastic!!! This is were it ends, spa relaxation room was tired, dated, noisy and untidy so not very relaxing, pool was needing fixed broken tiles missing filters and looked dirty, sauna and steam room were okay, changing rooms and shower area were dirty, untidy and people were walking about poolside and in the showers with outdoor shoes on, so after a wonderful relaxing massage I was stressed out with the rest of my stay
The spa and treatment was lovely but unfortunately there was some miscommunication between staff and I didn't get the treatment I actually booked. There were a lot of people in getting a Groupon deal and I had different voucher but staff assumed I had the same deal even though I presented my voucher on arrival.
My daughter and I spent Mother’s Day at the Westerwood and we weren’t disappointed. The treatments were amazing and the staff lovely, as for our afternoon tea, wow, it was amazing. The only negative was the poolside area, it’s in need of some bleach and a good scrubbing brush but that was definitely the only drawback. Had a lovely day and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
Myself and my two friends had treatments booked in at the same time, and the therapists were efficient and professional. The spa waiting area calms you perfectly from the second you walk in and the 55 minute treatment was incredibly relaxing. Two of us had the aromatherapy back and neck massage with facial and scalp massage, and the other had the “Fit for Business” massage - both were fabulous. The pool and spa area with the jacuzzi, sauna and steam room was great. My favourite part of the spa was the heated loungers - I almost had to be dragged away from them! Didn’t eat in the spa, but have done in the past and it was fantastic. Can’t wait for another visit.

Stayed for 2 nights on a spa break in October as the pandemic was on the rise. The hotel had done everything they could to ensure a "safe" stay within the hotel, and i was more than happy with the efforts that Hilton have went to, to make you feel safe and secure in its surroundings.
The hotel was quiet, but the staff were friendly and informative.
It was nice to see that the majority of staff inc: Bedroom, waiting and bar staff were all home grown and local to Scotland.
Because it was quiet, we got a free upgrade to a King Room, which was a good size, with separated hallway and ensuite toilet. No complaints about the standard of the room.
I was disappointed in the décor of the dining and Bar area of the hotel. It felt very dull and out of date and had a slightly 70's retro feel to it that I did not enjoy.
The food was pleasant and enjoyable. However 1 issue that I had with the menu was the difference in price between most main mains £14.50, and a 8oz Sirloin steak £25.00. I am aware that steak may be a premium product, but not £10.50 more than the cost of other meals as Im sure the base cost is only approx. £2.00 more than the other meals. I think £19.99 would've been a more reasonable and acceptable price.
In summary though, I wouldn't rush to go back. I think there are far superior Hilton's as well as other spa hotels that feel more exclusive than the Westerwood Hotel. And although the stay was pleasant, it didn't feel special in any way whatsoever. 3 star all round.
We always get great value at the Westerwood, DoubleTree by Hilton. However, there is a disconnect between reception and the Spa reception (see below). Our rooms were comfortable and the food at dinner was great, albeit, the restaurant was quite chilly. Unfortunately there was a fire alarm whilst we were there however, despite this being inconvenient and being stood soaked in the wind and rain winter weather, the staff dealt with it quickly and communicated with us clearly.
We went for a spa break and the treatment was lovely. However, the room we had was very dated and I telephoned the reception desk several times and I'm still waiting for the phone to be answered !!! The breakfast was very average. I had to ask for fruit for the cereal. I accept there was a coach party in prior to us but the serving area was sloppy. I asked for 1 poached egg but was told I could only have 2!! Why? The answer, that's the way they come!!! It was a waste of good food.
Ground level room no voil on window so had to keep curtains closed at all times as Dog walkers and walkers passing by all the time, no A.C. so room was very hot we were unable to sleep, room was clean but furniture was very dated covered in scratches and marks, shower door did not close so leaked and was dirty, corridors to rooms more than half the lights were out, very difficult to see, bar and restaurant, windows and glass tables were dirty, chairs were badly stained and seen better days, breakfast- plates and cutlery were dirty had to return cups 3 times, breakfast was terrible ordered poached eggs on toast they were rock soild, staff really not interested, fire exits blocked by chairs and tables and uneven paving stones causing trip hazards and to get to the spa you have to walk through the middle of a restaurant full off golfers in your robe or swimsuit as your robes are not avaliable till you get down to the spa (not in your room or given to you at the front desk) over all it was not the relaxing weekend that we had anticipated very very disappointed.
Another great stay at this lovely hotel. We went as a party of 10 . Had 4 rooms booked was able to check into 2 rooms 3hrs before checking time which was a great bonus as we were able to keep all our luggage in the rooms before we headed to the spa. Received cookies on our arrival which was a lovely gesture.
Myself and two friends stayed at the Westerwood for a relaxing spa overnight. The stay at the hotel was perfect from beginning to end! From the hot cookie on arrival, to the staff and the beautiful reception area. The hotel was buzzing; there were dozens of people there for the yachting conference, parties of golfers, a 50th, an 80th and a wedding to name a few. But the service didn’t falter! It was a perfect stay. The food was excellent, and being vegan, the chef made me a delicious vegan pea and broccoli risotto. The following morning at breakfast, the manager remembered me and kindly came over to offer me a vegan breakfast. Will 100% be back again!
Staff were all very nice and helpful.
Spa area is a bit dated.
Food service was a bit poor,roll with soup could have been warmed up as it seemed stale, no side plate or knife to butter it.
Main meal put down in front of us staff didn’t ask us if we would like sauce etc when I asked for brown sauce I was given 2 sachets of sauce would have been nicer in a dish or even a bottle.
