Alexander House Hotel & Utopia Spa

Treat yourself to the pampering of a lifetime at Alexander House Hotel and Utopia Spa, a 17th century mansion, once the home of the poet Shelley. Set in 170 acres of gardens and parkland, this romantic getaway has a lavish spa, an inviting brasserie and an award-winning restaurant.

The 17th century building belies the stylish contemporary interiors where rich-coloured fabrics blend with modern, floral motif wallpaper in the rooms and suites. Via a tall gothic marble and granite corridor, you reach the spa, where you will find a subterranean palace of pools, domed ceilings and stone pillars, aptly called Utopia. Choose from over 50 spa treatments. For him, a detox cocoon wrap; for her, a Caci Quantum beauty lift.

In the evening, you have a choice of dining in the more formal Alexander's Restaurant or the modern brasserie, which has its own champagne bar.

Alexander House Hotel and Utopia Spa is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
