About

Dreaming of a top-to-toe wellbeing boost? You’ll find it at Bannatyne Hastings, a sumptuous Sussex country retreat deep in the historic heart of 1066 country. Enveloped by 38 acres of lush gardens and whimsical woodlands, this Georgian masterpiece was built back in 1764. Today, every corner tells a story - and every feature is tailormade to spoil you.

Check in, then chill out. Each of the hotel’s 38 en-suite rooms is a cocoon of contemporary comfort, with many offering picturesque views of the formal gardens. Indulge your taste buds at Maxine's Restaurant, where culinary masterpieces and hand-crafted cocktails make the perfect way to round off a busy day of being pampered.

But the biggest draw for those seeking the ultimate in blissful breaks has to be the adjoining Health Club and Spa. Just a one-minute walk from the hotel, this world of wellness offers a serene swimming pool, sauna and steam room, along with outdoor hot tubs for those who like their R and R with a bit of vitamin D. Five tranquil treatment rooms are home to an encyclopaedia of Elemis rituals and beauty treats designed to rejuvenate your body and soul.

The perfect antidote to life’s stresses and strains, this sublime suite of spa and wellness facilities are all you need to help you recline, unwind and drift into zen.

Post-massage, a relaxation room with heated stone loungers beckons. Take a break and relax with a book or magazine, or just enjoy some quiet time. And with spray tan booths too, you’ll leave looking and feeling like you’ve just had two weeks in the Med.

Your feel-good journey doesn’t end here, though. Flit between the sleek indoor pool, hot tub, sauna and steam room in the Health Club, or head outside to relax in an outdoor jacuzzi. Then all that’s left to do is to enjoy a light lunch with a glass of bubbly from the luxurious spa Cafe Bar.

The Bannatyne leisure centre facility has a lot of amenities as well just a pool and inside jacuzzi - there is also 2 further outdoor Jacuzzis and a ice baths, a sauna and steam room. It was great to use them all but the only downside is, it’s very busy with gym members and hotel guests so sometimes you have to wait to use some things. The spa side has a lovely ambience and takes you away from the hustle and bustle outside. Our package included the Swedish massage which was great. The lunch included really exceeded our expectations and you get to dine in the lovely hotel restaurant and enjoy the grounds if it’s good weather - we really enjoyed this. The staff at the restaurant were super attentive and excellent. They cater very carefully to dietary restrictions and gluten-free was easy for us to have here. All in all it’s a great place to enjoy - but maybe not the best place to go if you are looking for luxury and/or a more private experience.

A friend and are managed to get a Christmas Eve free of children (I know!) and we chose to have a spa day. Bannatynes Hastings was wonderful. All Staff were amazingly professional, helpful and friendly, and made us feel very welcome, despite the fact that it was Christmas Eve and they probably just wanted to be getting ready for Christmas! We had breakfast in the bar, which was very reasonably priced. Our massages were fantastic. We didn’t want to leave the relaxation room (could have gone to sleep as soon as I lay down). Thank you for a relaxing day. Can’t wait to visit again!
