Yesterday I had my first ever massage and spa treatment which I had here at The Spa at No.1 York. Being that I’ve never had one before I wasn’t too sure what to expect, but I can confidently say that I’m a total convert now, and that is in no small part to my experience here. It was frankly incredible, and I can’t wait to come back here again. Unfortunately I don’t live close but the next time I’m in York, it will be the first thing I do.
I went for the ‘Relax Regime for him’ treatment as it seemed like a good one to start with, and from the moment you enter the spa, everything feels special. From the waiting and treatment rooms, to the smells, and the sounds and the lighting. I then met Holly who was brilliant throughout. She took me through the whole process and we went over what I was looking for and the issues I was having with my neck. The following hour was, for lack of a better word, amazing! It started with a massage and Holly worked out a number issues I had with my back, shoulders and neck; I was amazed at how freely my neck moved afterwards. Still feels great now. After that, there was a facial, which again I’ve never had before, but through every step, I just felt a stress or tightness go. I don’t think I’ve ever been so relaxed. By the time it was over I felt incredible. Holly then walked me through the aftercare, and told me a bit more about the products that were used and also provided a sample of one of them in case I’d like to get some, which I probably will, and she also gave me a link to the music that was on during the session.
I can’t recommend The Spa at No.1 York enough. Granted, being that I’m new to this, it was always going to be quite an experience, but even I could see that everything from Holly’s skill and expertise, to the whole atmosphere of the place makes this a premium and truly special experience, and if I ever go to another place for a massage, they’re going to have a hard time meeting my expectations given that my experience here has set the bar very high.
Many thanks once again Holly, and to everyone at the spa. I really can’t wait to...

Today, I had a spa adventure at Spa No.1. I had the luck to be massaged by Sophie.
Before starting the massage Sophie made sure to understand what was my need of the moment and choose the oils / treatments accordingly. We started with a back massage - super relaxing! And focusing on my points of tension. Sophie honestly worked her magic on my tense neck, releasing stress I carried over from an intense work week in London. Then we moved to the facial that included a scalp massage. At that time I felt my mind unburdening itself, a rare moment of pure mental freedom. It was as if my thoughts decided to take a backseat ✨ The facial was done with the fragrant rose products and was an absolute dream. At the end, we had a post-treatment chat. She introduced me to the world of "Pinks Boutique" with such enthusiasm, sharing their story and philosophy. I was delighted! And I'm definitely diving into their organic products for my skincare routine!
This spa isn't just a place, it's an experience! I recommend 200%! Thank you, Sophie, and thank you, "Pinks Boutique," for making...
Read moreIve only ever had 2 spa treatment in my life, 1 here and 1 elsewhere. The difference in experience from the first (which was great) to the most recent which was here at No.1 was unrecognisable! From the moment you walk in, to be greeted by the wonderfully warm, welcoming and caring Lisa to the actual treatment with Suzie where she put me in a state of total relaxation with her Regimen for Men (roughly £95 for an hour).. I was floating in total bliss while she worked on my back removing my tension and soothing me! Then I had a facial which just sent me off, i couldn’t not recommend this spa enough if you are looking for massage/treatment. I have already booked my next treatment which is there special treatment of the month -...
