Greenwich has seven spas and wellness centres worth knowing, offering massages, facials, sauna and steam room access, couples’ treatments and complete spa day packages. Options range from Meridian Spa on Creek Road and boutique clinics around Greenwich Market to the hotel spa at the InterContinental on Greenwich Peninsula, with two Ayurvedic centres and a Thai steam-and-sauna house in between.

The best spas and wellness centres in Greenwich
1. Meridian Spa: best for an all-round spa day in Greenwich
Who it is best for: anyone who wants a full spa day rather than a single appointment, and couples who want to book together.
Spa facilities: Meridian Spa sits inside Meridian Fitness Health Club at 38 Creek Road and has eight treatment rooms, a sauna and steam room, and the health club’s gym floor alongside. A lift connects the gym level to the spa, steam room and sauna. It has on-site parking, which is rare in central Greenwich.
Treatments: the menu is built on the British ELEMIS skincare line and covers massage (Swedish, deep tissue, hot stone, sports, pregnancy, lymphatic drainage), ELEMIS Touch and BIOTEC facials, scrubs and wraps, hands and feet, waxing and laser hair removal. Full-body massages start at £50 for 30 or 60 minutes, and the Garden of England Rose Restore massage and micro-wrap is £70 for an hour.
Spa-day experience: spa day packages run from £100 to £230. The Meridian Express Spa Day (£100) pairs a 30-minute ELEMIS Touch facial with a 30-minute massage; Total Relaxation (£200) extends both to 60 minutes; the Mum To Be Spa Day (£160) combines a 60-minute pregnancy massage with a 30-minute Superfood Pro-Radiance facial; the Beautiful Bride Spa Day (£225) adds a rose hand treatment to a facial and massage; and the Men’s Gateway Spa Day (£230) stacks a BIOTEC Super-Charger facial, a deep tissue massage and an ELEMIS salt scrub. Packages include access to the gym, sauna, steam room and two fitness studios, so the day runs sauna and steam first, treatments, then rest. Arrive 15 minutes before your booking.
Couples options: The Couples Spa Day is £200 for two hours and includes a 30-minute ELEMIS facial and a 30-minute massage for each person. Couples Deep Tissue and Couples Swedish massages are £140 for two hours. All are booked as one appointment for two people rather than two separate slots.
Location and accessibility: a few minutes on foot from Cutty Sark DLR and Greenwich station, opposite the Valero petrol station on Creek Road. Spa hours are 12pm to 8.30pm on weekdays and 10am to 6.30pm at weekends; the health club opens from 6am on weekdays. Booking is available online or by calling 020 8469 1961, and the spa holds a 4.7-star rating across more than 3,700 reviews.
What makes it different: it is the only venue in Greenwich town centre where a spa day includes sauna, steam and a gym under the same roof, and the only one with its own car park. The trade-off is that there is no pool.
2. The Spa at InterContinental London, The O2: best luxury spa
Who it is best for: a hotel-standard spa day, a birthday treat, or combining a spa visit with a show at The O2.
Facilities: spread over two floors of the five-star hotel at 1 Waterview Drive, the spa has a 17-metre swimming pool, a relaxation pool with water cannons and air-jet loungers, a sauna, a steam room, an ice fountain, a relaxation lounge and eight treatment rooms including couples’ suites. The hotel gym runs on TechnoGym equipment.
Treatments: ESPA products throughout, with facials, massages and body scrubs. The signature Meridian Time Ritual runs 105 minutes and combines body brushing with a marine mask wrap.
Location: on Greenwich Peninsula, a short walk from North Greenwich station and The O2, about ten minutes from the pier. This is the one Greenwich spa where you can swim during the day, and prices reflect the five-star setting.
3. Ayush Ayurvedic Health Spa and Beauty Centre: best for Ayurvedic wellness
Who it is best for: people who want a consultation-led wellness visit rather than a Western spa day.
Facilities and treatments: based at 48 Newton Lodge, Oval Square, in Greenwich Millennium Village, the centre has four treatment rooms, two shower rooms, a yoga studio and a health café. Treatments include Abhyanga (warm herbal oil massage), Shirodhara (warm oil poured across the forehead) and Pizhichil (oil bath massage), alongside conventional beauty services such as facials, manicures and waxing. Wellness packages combine several therapies and come with lifestyle and dietary advice.
Location: on the Peninsula near the Ecology Park, closer to North Greenwich station than to the town centre. Booking is online rather than by phone.
4. Aura Organics Spa: best for beauty and facial treatments
Who it is best for: organic facials, waxing and massage in the middle of Greenwich Market.
Facilities and treatments: Aura Organics is a skincare brand founded in 2015 that makes its own products in Hackney and uses them in the spa at 10 Turnpin Lane. The menu covers facials, Swedish and back, neck, and shoulder massage, Indian head massage, and hot-wax hair removal, and the day-spa side includes a private hot tub, steam room, and sauna. The team is all female.
Location: inside Greenwich Market, a two-minute walk from Cutty Sark DLR. If you are searching for a facial near Greenwich Market or a massage after a morning at the market, this is the closest option.
5. Serenity Body and Soul: best for massage and relaxation
Who it is best for: treatment-led visits where the massage is the point, including sports, pregnancy and clinical bodywork.
Facilities and treatments: a holistic therapy centre at 3 Wren House, 334a Creek Road, founded by a physiotherapy-trained massage therapist. The menu runs from Swedish, deep tissue, Thai and hot stone massage to sports massage, myofascial release, pregnancy massage, lymphatic drainage with infrared, and advanced facials and peels. Treatments are adapted to the client on the day, and a weekend and bank-holiday premium applies (£10 on Saturdays, £20 on Sundays and bank holidays).
Location: on Creek Road between Cutty Sark DLR and Greenwich station, a short walk from Meridian.
6. Ruean Siam Steam Sauna & Massage: best for Thai massage and steam and sauna
Who it is best for: traditional Thai massage followed by time in a steam room and sauna, at hours no other Greenwich venue keeps.
Facilities and treatments: at 193 Trafalgar Road in East Greenwich, Ruean Siam combines steam and sauna facilities with traditional Thai massage, oil massage, deep tissue, Swedish massage and reflexology. Thai massage here uses the Nuad Thai method of stretching, point pressure and energy-line work. It is open 11am to 11pm seven days a week, so it is the late-evening option in Greenwich.
Location: on the 129 and 188 bus routes between Greenwich town centre and the Peninsula, about ten minutes on foot from Maze Hill station.
7. Free Flow Ayurveda: best for holistic massage and Ayurveda
Who it is best for: a one-to-one Ayurvedic massage and health consultation rather than a facilities-led spa day.
Facilities and treatments: founded by holistic massage therapist and Ayurvedic health consultant Aneta Beasley, who spent more than ten years in London spas before opening the clinic at the Greenwich West Community and Arts Centre, 141 Greenwich High Road. Treatments include Abhyanga relax massage (£75 for 60 minutes), Udvartana detox herbal scrub massage (£80), Hridaya Basti heart treatment (£80), Pada foot massage (from £45), head and face massage, and a holistic facial (£85). Packages such as Detox & Tone combine a herbal scrub with abdominal massage.
Location: on Greenwich High Road near Greenwich station. Open Monday to Saturday, with online booking through the clinic’s own site.
How to choose the right spa in Greenwich
Decide between a treatment and a full spa day
A treatment booking is a single appointment: a massage or a facial, usually 30 to 90 minutes, and you leave afterwards. A spa day adds facility access before and after the treatment, so the sauna, steam room, pool or relaxation area become part of the visit. Of the seven venues here, only Meridian Spa, the InterContinental and Aura Organics offer that second format; the other four are treatment clinics.
Check which facilities are included
Facilities differ more than treatment menus do. The InterContinental is the only Greenwich spa with a pool. Meridian Spa, the InterContinental, Aura Organics and Ruean Siam have a steam room and sauna. Only Meridian has a gym you can use on the same visit. Serenity, Free Flow and Ayush are treatment rooms without heat or water facilities, and their prices reflect that.
Compare treatment choices
For massage, every venue on this list qualifies. For facials, Meridian Spa (ELEMIS), the InterContinental (ESPA), Aura Organics (its own organic range), Serenity, and Free Flow all offer them. For couples treatments, Meridian and the InterContinental have dedicated couples formats. For pregnancy massage, Meridian, Serenity and Free Flow all list it. For holistic and Ayurvedic therapy, Ayush and Free Flow are the specialists.
Look at location and transport
Greenwich town centre and Creek Road (Meridian, Serenity, Aura Organics) are served by Cutty Sark DLR and Greenwich station. Greenwich Peninsula (InterContinental, Ayush) is closer to North Greenwich on the Jubilee line. Ruean Siam on Trafalgar Road sits between the two, nearest Maze Hill. Only Meridian has on-site parking.
What does a spa day in Greenwich usually include?
A Greenwich spa day combines a massage or facial with access to facilities such as a sauna, steam room, swimming pool, gym or relaxation area. What is included varies considerably between venues, so check the package rather than assuming.
At Meridian Spa, a spa package pairs a facial with a massage and includes access to the gym, sauna, steam room, and two fitness studios, with robes and towels provided. Longer packages, such as Total Relaxation and the Men’s Gateway, add treatment time and a scrub. At the InterContinental, a spa day includes the pool, vitality pool, sauna, steam room and relaxation lounge with refreshments around the booked treatments. At Aura Organics, the day-spa format centres on the private hot tub, steam and sauna. Couples packages at Meridian and the InterContinental put both people in the same room for the treatment.
Gym access is only part of the picture at Meridian; nowhere else in Greenwich bundles training with a spa day.
Spa day or individual treatment: which should you book?
| Format | Typical length | What you get | Best venues in Greenwich | Book this if |
| Full spa day | 2 to 5 hours | Treatment plus sauna, steam, pool or gym, robes, rest time | Meridian Spa, InterContinental | You want to switch off for half a day |
| Massage only | 30 to 90 minutes | One treatment, no facilities | Serenity, Free Flow, Ruean Siam, Meridian, Aura | You have a specific ache or an hour to spare |
| Facial or beauty treatment | 30 to 60 minutes | Skin-focused treatment | Meridian, Aura Organics, Serenity, Free Flow | Skin is the priority |
| Couples package | 2 hours | Shared treatment room, often with facility access | Meridian (£200 spa day, £140 couples massage), InterContinental | An anniversary, birthday or first spa visit together |

Where can you find spas in Greenwich?

Around Greenwich town centre and Creek Road, between Cutty Sark and Greenwich station, you will find Meridian Spa, Serenity Body and Soul and, inside Greenwich Market, Aura Organics. On Greenwich Peninsula, by The O2 and North Greenwich station, are the InterContinental spa and the Ayush Ayurvedic centre in Greenwich Millennium Village.

If you want one excellent treatment and nothing else, Serenity, Free Flow, Ayush, Aura Organics and Ruean Siam each do something the others do not.
