The best couples spa London fit depends on setup: Meridian Spa in Greenwich offers a private couples room plus sauna, the Bentley Hotel suits anniversary retreats, and treatment-only salons suit shorter, cheaper visits. None of these is ranked.
Our guide to the best spas in london covers the wider city, and the guide to spas in north london helps if you would rather stay north of the river. This page compares only what is specific to couples: who shares a room, what comes with the booking and which terms can catch you out.
Choosing a couples spa setup
These options are not ranked, because the facts differ by setup rather than by quality. They run from fuller package days to treatment-only bookings, and four criteria separate them.
- Room arrangement. A couple can be treated in a private couples room, side by side in one shared room, or each in a separate room. If you want to chat or simply be together, avoid separate rooms.
- Inclusions. Some listings are a massage and nothing else. Others add a facial, sauna time, food or a drink.
- Heat and water facilities. A sauna or hot room turns a treatment into a half-day outing. A hot tub is a different matter, covered in its own section below.
- Terms. Weekday-only access, excluded dates and cancellation notice can matter more than a small price gap.
Spa-day packages with private space
Meridian Spa, Greenwich
Meridian Spa is a day spa at 38 Creek Road, London, SE8 3FN, and its couples spa day takes place in a private couples treatment room. The package includes a body massage, a facial of your choice, a sauna and other treatments of your choice. Packages start from £200 for a two-hour session.
This is the strongest fit for couples who want to stay together throughout and want a spa-day feel rather than a single massage. The £200 is a starting price, so the final cost depends on the treatments you choose.
The Bentley Hotel couples retreats
The Bentley Hotel’s luxury couples packages can be booked for one or two persons, so the same retreat works for a couple or a solo guest. Four packages are listed:
- Choccy Delight: a 75-minute treatment plus 60 minutes of gym and sauna, at £115 per person or £220 per couple. It is the lowest-priced Bentley package listed and the only one that pairs a treatment with gym and sauna time.
- Autumn Warming Retreat: two hours, at £229 individually or £449 for a couple. It is a seasonal package, so confirm it is still offered for your date.
- Couples Royal Retreat: three hours 30 minutes, at £260 per person or £480 per couple.
- God/Goddess Retreat: four hours, at £325 per person or £595 per couple. It is the longest and most expensive.
The price steps follow the time on offer, so choose by how much of the day you want to give to it. A quick lunchtime treatment suits the shorter packages. A whole afternoon suits the longer retreats.
Anniversary packages and what they include
For a spa for anniversary London plans, the useful question is what happens around the treatment. At the Bentley, the God/Goddess Retreat ends with a fresh fruit platter and a glass of prosecco, which makes it the closest match to a celebratory package. The Couples Royal Retreat instead includes time in a private relaxation area with a choice of fruity teas, chocolate cakes and pastries.
Choose the prosecco package if the toast matters. Choose the Royal Retreat if you would rather have a private space to talk and eat once the treatments finish. Both are described on the Bentley’s packages page.
A self-contained private spa suite with its own bath is not part of the listings compared here. The closest private options are Meridian’s private couples treatment room and the Bentley’s private relaxation area.
Treatment-only couples massage
If you want the massage without a full spa day, several London spas list couples massage on its own. Prices and room arrangements vary more than the headline “couples massage” suggests.
Volta’s Spa
Volta’s Spa couples massage is sold as a voucher through Wonderdays. It gives each person a 45-minute freestyle deep tissue massage, priced at £99 for two people. Each person is in a separate treatment room, so this suits couples who care more about the massage and price than sharing the room. It is not the right choice if you want to lie beside your partner.
Rush&Ry in Greenwich and Deptford
Rush&Ry offers both arrangements on Treatwell. The Greenwich listing is a couples spa massage for two, side by side in the same room. The Deptford listing is a couples massage for two in separate rooms. Both run from 60 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes and start from £104 for two. The same price for both layouts means you can choose the room arrangement without paying a premium.
Other treatment-only listings
- The Spa Culture, Turnpike Lane: couples massage in the same rooms, from 30 minutes to 1 hour, listed from £38.50. It is the lowest starting price in these listings.
- Secret Oasis Spa, Fulham: couples massage from 30 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, listed from £77.
- Metta Spa, St Johns Wood: a last-minute couples massage from 45 minutes to 2 hours, listed from £105. It suits a spontaneous plan.
All three appear on the same Treatwell couples massage page. Each “from” price is a starting point, so check the exact length and price at checkout.
Hot tubs, saunas and heat facilities
None of the couples options covered here lists a hot tub. Anyone searching for a couples spa with hot tub London will find that the packages with heat facilities offer a sauna or Turkish hot rooms instead. If a hot tub is essential to your plans, ask the spa directly before you pay.
- Sauna included: Meridian’s couples spa day includes a sauna, and the Bentley’s Choccy Delight pairs its treatment with gym and sauna time.
- No water facilities: Volta’s Spa, per the Wonderdays listing, has no swimming pool, hydrotherapy pools, saunas or steam rooms, and no hot tub is listed. Treat it as a massage-only visit.
- Heat and water without a couples package: Time Out’s affordable spas roundup describes Porchester Spa as having three Turkish hot rooms, a large swimming pool and a plunge pool. It suits couples who want to spend time in heat and water together rather than book a couples treatment.

Booking and availability
Couples treatments are best arranged ahead. Bentley packages are booked by contacting its Senior Spa Therapist directly on 0207 244 5371 or at [email protected], so ask about your preferred date when you call. The Bentley page gives no fixed lead time.
Volta’s couples massage is available Monday to Thursday only, subject to availability. It excludes 25 and 26 December, Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day, so it is the wrong choice for an anniversary that falls on one of those dates. The voucher is valid for 12 months from the date of issue, according to the Wonderdays terms, which makes it easy to give as a gift.
At Rush&Ry in Deptford, the listing asks for at least 48 hours’ notice to cancel, and late cancellations are charged full price, as set out on Treatwell. Metta Spa’s last-minute couples massage shows that some spas take shorter-notice bookings, but do not count on it for a special date.
Booking for more than two people? A hen party spa day london is set up for groups rather than couples.
