Named ‘Best UK Luxury Hotel Spa’ at
the World Spa Awards, K Spa at K West
Hotel is also home to London’s first
Snow Paradise. Chilled to -15ºC, this
cabin is reminiscent of a snowdrift and
designed to complement the spa’s hotcold therapy, alternating between steam
and ice environments. If you are not one
for the chills, you are guaranteed some
warm relaxation in the Scandinavian
Sauna and Steam room followed by a dip
in the Hydrotherapy pool. Feel good with
a Baobab Ritual, offering all the benefits
of the feel-good fruit – a nourishing,
protective, smoothing and hydrating
experience, using a scrub, essential oil
and gel all made with Baobab extract
to give a full body exfoliation, massage
and energising leg therapy. The ritual is
completed with a fresh Baobab smoothie.
A donation of UK£2 is made from
each Baobab treatment to the Aduna
Foundation, which supports African smallscale producers of Baobab fruit.
