Beauty Event: K West Hotel Spa with SpaSeekers

Last week, myself and Fran headed over to the K West Hotel Spa in Shepherd's Bush for a bloggers evening of food, treatments and some much needed pampering. As my first time visiting a spa, it was certainly an interesting experience. Here's a little look at our evening...

I'll be honest - I've had never been to a spa before as the whole idea terrified me. I don't like walking round in a swimming costume and I hate being touched by strangers so you can see why, until now, I'd never considered it high on my list of things to try. My friends and family members have always been keen on spas and telling me of various ones they've visited and so when SpaSeekers got in touch and asked me if I would be interested in attending their spa event, I figured maybe this was my chance to finally give it a try - why not, aye? 

For those of you not yet familiar with their service, SpaSeekers* are a website designed to make your spa search as simple as possible; sharing special offers, discounts and searchable packages from across the UK. Located at K West Hotel and Spa (just a few minutes walk from Shepherd's Bush train station), myself and Fran arrived just in time to enjoy the Afternoon Tea menu and a chat with some fellow blogger babes before a cocktail masterclass. 

Having stuffed our faces, it was time to head downstairs to check out the spa. This is the bit where I got nervous. However, once I got in there it was near-on impossible not to feel at ease. As well the staff being the nicest people ever, the spa had a wonderful, calming atmosphere. Once inside, we had free reign of the sauna, ice room (which is literally an awesome room of ice) and my favourite - the amazing jacuzzi. 

You'll have to forgive my nails (or lack of them) but I had them removed especially for this nails workshop. Following a couple of hours in the spa, we sat down with the super talented Sarina who talked us through preparing our nails and various nail art techniques featuring cruelty-free, vegan nail products. The workshop itself was really fun and allowed us to play around with various tools and learn techniques we could try at home. And as if we weren't spoilt enough, we were even given a goodie bag of spa products to enjoy at home. So all in all - my spa phobia has officially been faced and overcome. I genuinely had a lovely evening - the food was amazing and after a long day at work, the jacuzzi was a great way to relax. In a bid to deliver a super honest review, I couldn't actually think of one thing wrong with this place.

That's it for another event review. But tell me, have you ever been to the K West Hotel? How do you feel about spas? As always, I love reading your comments so please do leave me lots of lovely comments below. A huge thanks to SpaSeekers for an awesome event and to the lovely Fran for joining me.

Until next time,
