Spa In The City

Over rated.
It really didnt live up to its hype.
We queued for an hour to recieve a ”goody” bag which included an energy drink and a small sample of perfume. The tent only ad a certain amount of avaliabily for each treatment, and it appeared to be quite unorganised. I opted for a manicure, however when I got to the Harvey Nics tent a very polite girl advised me that I would then need to to harvey Nics for the manicure and would cost me £10 — so that was a complete let down. We proceeded to go to Harvey Nic to then be told they had no avaliabilty, whilst i was being told this someone just got an appointmen! The businesses there were not trying to promote any of their services, expect id say Lush and element.
I had great expectations of this treatment day, however it was rather drab and I dont think ill go back to it again.

The staff are friendly and make you feel as ease. The premises are beautifully decorated and very relaxing. I could easily have fallen asleep in their waiting room (the black and red bed-​roomeque space with candles and music).
I was there to get waxed and while it was painful (not their fault!) the girl was quick and did a good job. It wasn’t cheap (£45 for full leg, bikini line and underarm) but that’s not too pricey for somewhere in Edinburgh city centre either.
