| Visited BGHS yesterday (Sat) for the first time with some lovely friends. I had heard good things about the place, so was looking forward to going and I certainly wasn't disappointed.
I can honestly say this has to be one of the best spas I've ever been to. The facilities are absolutely top class and the place is kept spotlessly clean. So many different things to do and areas to be in over four levels. The wet facilities were fantastic and the general seating/relaxations areas, including the rest rooms upstairs, were excellent. Unfortunately I couldn't use the sundeck area due to the rain, but I could imagine that being very nice on a sunny day. I also had a massage there and can definitely recommend. Think I might book an hour next time (and there will definitely be a next time).
About the only aspects I could mention that could possibly be improved, from my point of view, are:
1) The tone of one of the staff members. Nothing bad, but perhaps needs to remember she's not the headmistress of a school. Note that overall I found the staff to be very friendly and welcoming.
2) Single guys are not allowed to stay later than 5.30pm on both weekend days. Given the place only opens at midday and the weekend is typically the most convenient time to visit (unless local, perhaps), it does seems a little bit unfair to me that this applies to BOTH weekend days. I totally understand the desire and need for a period of couples only and usually with most venues that is a Saturday evening, but to have that twice means I'll have to think about how often I visit, given I will only be able to stay for 5.5 hours maximum.
Apart from that. Brilliant and so nice to see everyone (including single guys) so well behaved.
