Opt for one of their signature treatments including the Lanesborough Lather, which luxuriously hydrates and buffs the body- pure bliss.

The on-site restaurant is a very plush affair which includes dedicated spa butlers, so you can finally live out that Downton Abbey fantasy. The menu has been developed by the hotel’s Michelin-starred chefs with a focus on healthy, fresh cuisine to complement your day of external pampering. Membership starts from £6,000 and Spa passes are priced at £150 per day. Hyde Park Corner, Belgravia, London SW1X 7TA, www.lanesboroughclubandspa.com
