Gentry Spa Hull

Good fun to be had.

A hidden island of obscurity tucked away in a quiet, anonymous area of Hull. I needed somewhere to escape the world for a few hours, a secluded and private space to chill and relax: where time is suspended, the pressures and norms of the outside world are held at the door, a place where I could gently disappear in a friendly, safe and non judgemental environment: this all male spar was just the ticket. As it was my first visit there, the staff were really welcoming and were able to provide initial reassurance that I was indeed at the correct venue with the right clientele, outline the facilities and norms of the spa, give me a locker key, footwear and a towel and explained all the facilities available: I had everything I needed to head in. I put my technology away, took an incredibly long and refreshing shower and went to explore. The facilities offered excellent value for the entry fee and were more than sufficient for my needs: showers WC, 2 hot tubs, steam room, sauna. There was a really good traditional pub bar section with a range of alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages available. I also noticed an outside area, presumably for smoking and/or cool downs, but I didn't explore it. Upstairs there's a changing room with lockers, with some activity rooms on the same floor, a TV room with comfortable leather sofas, lockable rest cabins, exercise walls with designated waist high circular release points, and a handy strap hammock with extra leg support is also available if required. On the floor above, additional rooms including a large matted area for floor routines, another lounge area, both rooms with large screens playing suitably atmospheric background imagery to set the right ambience, along with social rooms and activity rooms, there are also spaces for solo or private workouts. There's space for all the usual types of group activities, in addition to private rooms for private workouts, so if you and a buddy need to get down, get focussed and really nail that tough routine, there's plenty of quiet corners to slip in to. These quieter areas include rest spaces where you can lie down, dim the lights, put your legs up and take a load off your feet, or drain your sack of worries in a warm, welcoming space. I got a really good vibe from the staff, the locals were also very friendly and I was able to help a few of them finish their workouts, they seemed keen to help me with mine, so my visit ended up being good fun as well as incredibly beneficial exercise. I engaged in notable and enjoyable exchanges of with some of the guys there, giving me a chance to relax and take it easy in good company, along with some unexpectedly diverting and refreshingly welcome banter at the bar: conversations that were a genuine and memorable delight. Overall it was a great visit, incredibly relaxing and just what I needed. Something for the mind and body and I came away recharged, replenished and refilled. I'd be happily return for a few hours here again. Thanks guys, just what the doctor ordered.
