Champneys Pedicure Not Worth It!!!
Pros:

I booked the pedicure service at Champneys Springs thinking this has to be something really impressive for £65… Err… no! Take a look at the photos - cuticle work is pretty awful, the nail polish is bubbly and uneven and I receive much better treatment at beauty salons for half the price. Pretty gutted, I’ll have to have this re-done somewhere else asap.

Perfect 3 night stay
Pros:

Stayed for 3 nights for my 40th birthday and could fault anything. Lovely staff who went above and beyond to make the stay special and we were looked after by Catrina and the team. Rooms are clean and comfy with coffee restocked daily.

Great overall but Food was a real highlight
Pros:

Have visited Springs for 7+ years and while there are some parts of the building that could do with some sprucing up - the programme of renovations over the past 2 years (gym, fitness studuo etc) have really upped the appearance.
The food has always been good but this trip was another level. Excellent options (both for meat eaters and vegetarian) but the quality and flavours in the dishes were exceptional. (Dinner and lunch)
Reception and restaurant staff are professional, warm and welcoming - particularly Catrina in the restaurant.

Will definitely be back (again)

Enjoyable Stay - Rooms need TLC
Pros:

Great locations and facilities.

Both treatments were amazing.

Staff were really helpful throughout and a shoutout to Catrina in the restaurant to making our stay extra special.
Food was great over the 3 days.

The only thing that lets the stay down are the rooms - they are tired and dated for the price you pay which is disappointing. (Superior Double )

A perfect bank holiday stay.
Pros:

We have just returned from a 3 night bank holiday weekend at Champneys Springs. The whole stay was just beautiful from check in to departure. Carol The General Manager creates a perfect team ethos, with friendliness and care at the core. Our treatments were beautiful ( my facial with Lana was heaven!) The chefs special menu was such a surprise treat- so a big shout out to Charles. The aqua classes were great & such fun! Huge thanks to all the team.

Great experience 👏
Pros:

I had a really pleasant stay at Champneys Springs and would highly recommend visiting to others.

I was served by Massimo & Catrina at dinner and their service was exceptional. Friendly, polite, funny and accommodating throughout. They have a separate 3 course vegan menu which had 4 options for each course, and Massimo & Catrina went above and beyond to point out other 'accidently vegan' foods on their menus such as their ice cream. They are both a credit to the company.

I would definitely return and for those with dietary requirements, staying here would be a no brainer.

We had a lovely chilled time, my expectations were higher than what I found
Pros:

Facilities and space

Cons:

Dated, extractor fan running all night, double glazed units blown in bedroom and main pool area , room next to lift and stairwell, constant reference to third party booking - second class vibe

Great value for money, absolutely worth it considering and would stay again
Pros:

The room was big, clear and comfy. A tad dated as many of the reviews say but not in a bad way at all. The bathroom suffers from mould but i better extractor fan would fix that. The bed was comfy, large tv and free wifi. The room came with a kettle and two sets of glasses. People who leave bad reviews either paid a lot more than me or are just salty

Cons:

Not much really. considering the cost (we stayed as an overnight B&B guest) you get a lot for your money. Similar price to a travelodge but with a healthy breakfast and a spa for the same cost. The spa is very popular with locals as a fitness centre so it's busy. And it's not really a spa, more of a community sports centre vibe.

Worth a visit - value for money
Pros:

Beautiful lounging areas to relax and chat, sipping drinks in the sunshine. Some areas a little tired looking - poor woodwork in bedroom and pool area could do with a little TLC but nothing major. Shout out to catrina and massimo for their excellent service and conversation - so welcoming and happy to chat

Lovely stay
Pros:

Lovely stay. Room and surroundings beautiful. Swimming pool and related facilities worn and in need of refresh, missing tiles, block drains, broken showers. Evening meal was delicious and service from Massimo and Catrina exceptional, they were welcoming, very friendly and knowledgeable. Also enjoyed the option for board games after dinner.
