Bob said about SPA in Edinburgh I’m a fan of Pure as a brand and enjoy visiting their Lothian Road
branch. I’ve visited the Ocean Terminal Spa twice now as I received
vouchers as a gift. Both times I was the only customer in the spa and
had the entire sitting area to myself while staff members occasionally
floated in and completed mysterious tasks behind closed doors (setting
up hot stones, tidying up after the previous client, etc.). When you
arrive you’re asked to change into a robe and slippers and make your
way into the seating area. Each spa treatment begins with a 'foot
ritual’ in which the feet are exfoliated and then lotion is applied. On
my first visit I had the cooling hot stone therapy. This was a
disappointment as, although the massage was pleasant enough, half of
the time was taken up with a facial (this was not clear from the
brochure), which I didn’t enjoy. On my second visit I had the hot stone
massage, which was excellent.
The staff I have found quite
variable - the vast majority are friendly but some have a slightly
snooty air and almost appear to view clients as an inconvenience
(especially if you get in their way), however do not let this put you
off as the spa is a pleasant place for a treatment (although I’m not
sure how pleasant it would be for a whole day without the company of a
friend!).JShiels said about SPA in Edinburgh
Edinburgh's SPA saloonsI was given a voucher last year for Pure Spa and thoroughly enjoyed it
- I had a hot stone massage and was treated to a lovely foot scrub,
massage before my main treatment. Afterwards I was shown to a lovely
quiet area where I could enjoy a drink (supplied by them) and a read of
magazines or just a relax.
However I received a voucher this year
and did not enjoy it as much - they seem to have cut down on things and
I did not feel quite as pampered. This may have been a one off (or a
bad day in the salon) and certainly would not discourage me from going
back but it was a little disappointing.
They do sell lovely items in the salon, a lot of which I have not seen in shops before.Sheehlb also used SPA in Edinburgh
Where SPA in Edinburgh
There are 2 Pure Spas - one at OT and one on Lothian road.
The
pure spa has a nice set up - you choose a basic treatment and then you
can add extras - so a basic manicure is about £15 and you can pay extra
for french polish or a hand treatment. Same with facials and massages.
It’s a place to pop in for quick treatment rather than a long leisurely pamper.
Prices are quite reasonable I think and you can normally get an appointment at quite short notice.
I don’t like the waxing treatment that they use here.

Which SPA?
Edinburgh
Hair Removal
This is a great day spa. With ample parking, free, at Ocean Terminal
and professional staff it makes a spa visit very smooth and easy. This
isn’t somewhere to spend hours relaxing, it is more for the quick visit
when you know that you are in good hands. Whether its massage, facials,
manicure, pedicure or waxing, the treatments offered are well priced
and delivered with quality.
