SET THE SCENE
From the moment you arrive, you will be treated like a princess. After being whisked through the sumptuous lobby to reception, you’ll be escorted to your beautifully appointed and classically decorated suite where the fun can begin. On arrival you’ll find a huge pink hatbox full of treats for you and your friends to enjoy, including a hamper of sweet and savoury goodies, a Dyptique candle and a bag of Bliss Spa treatments. But that’s not all. A quick call to the hotel spa will confirm the therapists for your in-room mini-manicure are on their way, which leaves you just enough time to order one of the hotel’s infamous fruity beverages. Fluffy robes on and drink in hand, it’s now time to choose your classic Chick Flick for the evening – think Dirty Dancing, Bridget Jones’ Diary, Footloose and Shirley Valentine – the list is endless. But wait. Don’t forget to place your order for nibbles, tasty morsels and sweeties from the delicious Girl’s Night In room-service menu. Perhaps you fancy tiger prawn lollipops, Indonesian chicken satay and a huge Girl’s Night In Knickerbocker glory? Oh, and that’s before you ring room service to demand your tub of Skinny Cow ice cream.
WAX LYRICAL
If the in-room delights and entertainment get a little too much, why not pop up to the hotel’s rooftop spa. On a sunny day the whole roof slides off the pool area allowing you to soak up some well-deserved rays and enjoy spectacular views over Hyde Park while you sip on a complimentary beverage or two. Even on a rainy day the extensive range of spa treatments are sure to bring a smile to your face.
RANGE OF TREATMENTS
The hotel offers a range of special packages similar to Girl’s Night In. A popular favourite at the moment is the Sex and The City Weekend, which offers girls about town the ultimate glamorous night in (or out). Treatments at the hotel spa range from delicious offerings such as the Coconut Scrub and Javanese Lulur to a comprehensive range of Doctor’s Dermalogic Formula (DDF) treatments ranging from microdermabrasion to wrinkle-relaxing and lightening.
WORTH A RETURN?
Most definitely. Apart from the fact that you’ll leave feeling utterly relaxed and pampered, you’ll have a memory to cherish of an utterly unforgettable night in with some of your best friends. I mean, come on, how many of you can hold your hands up and say you wouldn’t enjoy a night of candles, sweets, ice-cream, manicures, chick flicks, drinks and chocolate with a group of your best girlfriends?
