Day Spas versus Resort and Destination spas

It’s the Therapist that Matters!
Resort and destination spas have the luxury of time and space to pamper spa-goers with indulgent and exotic multi-hour treatment experiences, but we see savvy spa consumers seeking proven results when tackling their day-to-day needs.

The Spa and Fitness facilities and the Kempinski Hotel Corvinus – Budapest

The nudist spa at Kempinski Hotel Corvinus - Budapest, Hungary
Now this is the only place that if I really had to find a fault, I would stretch to find one. The hotel has an adequate gym and a mid-size pool but I do not feel that it big enough in proportion to the size of the hotel. The spa offers Thai treatments which I presume would be very stimulating because of its setting. It has a nudist steam and sauna section. The nudist spa is conspicuously labelled as such but nudist or not one cannot resist relaxing in the steam and sauna facilities.

Insecure guests like me can still cover up and enjoy the facilities. I am sure you can picture the scene as I sat in the herbal steam room all ‘cladded’ in full swimwear and was joined by four very fit-looking Swedish men in their full glory - hey – I did say that I couldn’t find any faults with the hotel!

Kempinski Hotel Corvinus – Budapest comes highly recommended.
