Back at One Spa

I was back at the One Spa in Edinburgh’s Sheraton Hotel today. I do love a spa! This time I was there with Marjory and we had a good afternoon of chat and swimming and trying out all of the spa rooms. Our favourite was the dry salt spa room, where the walls really do taste of salt (don’t ask me how I know that!) and also there is a salt spray that goes off every few minutes. Of course I also loved the outside jacuzzi pool. If it was a couple of storeys higher there would probably be a better view of the skyline of Edinburgh rather than just the neighbouring buildings but there’s not much can be done about that and it’s very pleasant. Another highlight was the “experience showers” which we found to be absolutely hilarious - you could choose from several experiences but my favourite was the “tropical storm” which included the sound of birds shrieking and even little flashes of pretend lightning as I was sprayed with warm water from all angles. Our lunchtime bento boxes of healthy food were surprisingly filling but we still managed a few more lengths in the pool before heading back to Glasgow.
