About

Planning an indulgent spa escape? What better location than Cheltenham. Although most famous for being home to one of the biggest fixtures in British horse racing, the Regency town is an elegant destination in its own right, and one that oozes cultured charm.

A destination this iconic deserves a hotel that’s just as special, and the DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham ticks all the boxes. Tucked away in the picturesque Gloucestershire countryside, this traditional Georgian manor is less than two miles from the town centre and three miles from Cheltenham racecourse. Yet its uplifting features make it feel world’s away from the hustle and bustle - think elegant architecture, breathtaking grounds and even its own ornamental lake.

Step inside the grand lobby with its high ceilings and marble pillars to feel an instant sense of history alongside the tranquility. Built in 1833, the former home to several notable families became a hotel in the 1920s and was lovingly restored and refurbished in 2017. 

But the DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham’s centuries’ old heritage is only part of its charm. Home to a fresh and modern health club, luxurious leisure facilities will see you unwinding in the toasty waters of the hot tub, working out in the state-of-the-art gym, then cooling off with some laps of the indoor swimming pool. Then just feel yourself drift away with an Elemis ritual in one of the spa’s three treatment rooms. 

A fabulous location means that the shops, restaurants and Regency architecture of Cheltenham are close at hand. Go for a flutter at the racecourse, hike in the picturesque scenery and stop at a cosy country pub or two. Further afield, Gloucester and its historic castle are a short drive from the hotel.

Days of spa-ing and sightseeing are sublime, but overnight stays are even more exquisite. You can unwind in style in one of DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham’s 150 sumptuous rooms, before heading down to dinner at the elegant Lakeside Restaurant. Time for a night-cap? The Lilley Brook Bar & Lounge is so cosy you’ll want to settle in for the night.

The Spa & Wellness at DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham

Such an exquisite hotel deserves a spa that’s just as luxurious, and this idyllic oasis doesn’t disappoint. Nested in its own separate area within the hotel’s King’s Health Club, it encourages you to stop, take a breath and indulge in a little me-time.

After you’ve had your fill of the indoor swimming pool, bubbling Jacuzzi and thermal suite, it's time to pad in your robe to one of three tranquil treatment rooms so your restorative ritual can commence. 

Lay back and smell the scented candles while skilled therapists and masseuses pamper you with Elemis facials, massages and scrubs. Then all that’s left is to pull up a poolside lounger to drift even deeper into bliss.

The Gym & Fitness at DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham

Earphones in, gym shoes on, because the DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham has a 36-station gym to keep you on track with your fitness goals. Called Kings Health Club, it's crammed with state-of-the-art equipment, plus all the latest gadgets and gizmos to keep you entertained while you sweat. 

This fresh, modern environment has a free weight zone, Peloton bike, resistance kit, cardio machines and cable machines. And, if you fancy a workout with friends, there’s an alphabet of weekly classes to power through, from aqua fit to yoga.

For exercise in the great outdoors you’ll find fantastic walks on the hotel’s doorstep. Go for a hike up nearby Leckhampton Hill for the best views of Cheltenham and the surrounding countryside. Part of the Cotswold Way, it's famous for its wild flowers - you may even spot some varieties of orchids while you ramble. 

Restaurants & Food at DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham

Is there anything nicer than getting glammed up for a cocktail (or two!) and an elegant evening meal after a day spent spoiling yourself? We don’t think so. Luckily the DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham is home to some extravagant spaces that let you do just that.

Lakeside Restaurant

Arguably one of Cheltenham's best restaurants, this is your setting for delicious cooked and continental breakfasts and glittering dinners. Soak up the views of the ornamental Lilley Brook Lake with its waterfall and gazebo from the huge bay window and enjoy impeccable service as you dine on a menu filled with seasonal produce and flavours. 

Lilley Brook Bar & Lounge

Say cheers to the Lilley Brook Bar & Lounge, an elegant yet comfy space stocked with all your favourite tipples. Savour a bar menu full of snacks and light bites while you sink into a squashy chair, or head outside for a summer aperitif on the terrace.

The treatments were lovely, staff very friendly. There was nowhere in the spa to just chill and relax. The main area’s of the hotel were very cold, our room was very good. In the bar I ordered a cup of tea but was told they had no cups so I couldn’t have one and at breakfast on Sunday they ran out of breakfast bowls.

Booking the spa experience was super easy and hassle free along with booking treatment times, easy. My mum and I had a fabulous special day for her 80th birthday treat. The light lunch was so much more than we thought, an afternoon tea filled with fresh sumptuous finger sandwiches and a mouth watering selection of cakes and cream scones. The spa itself was spotless and the treatment ladies Gabby and Becky were very caring towards my mum and I asking when necessary if pressure was ok etc, and gave great neck shoulder and back massages. We will definitely return.

Came for a belated valentine's day out, lovely experience! The hot tub was hot and the swimming pool was a perfect size and temperature. View was quite nice of the trees and hills as well. Didn't try the sauna but hubby enjoyed it. The changing rooms could do with a face lift and better sectioning so that wet feet don't end up mixing with muddy shoes, but it seemed cleanish. Probably recommend flip flops. Massage was relaxing and the staff were very polite, professional and all smiles. The afternoon tea was so-so but can't complain as it was part of the package and a welcome treat afterwards! Definitely would come again :)
