The Glassworks - Cambridge

The Glassworks is such a cozy and relaxing place! Everything was perfect and all the staff were super welcoming and helpful, both on phone call when booking the treatment, and when I was welcomed in reception. Sam and her magic hands did wonders to my body. I feel so grateful and will surely be back for another massage! Spa and gym are clean and offer all the features you’d need. Highly recommended.

We went for a one-off treatment and hour in the spa while staying in Cambridge. That was more than enough time as it's a small venue and we wouldn't have wanted to be there if it was busy. However, given that it wasn't, we had did have a lovely experience. Great, relaxing view from the jacuzzi that allows for some people watching and an attentive, relaxing treatment. Definitely worse ways to spend a couple of hours!

Came for a spa weekend with my partner and it did not disappoint. Spa wise the facilities are basic and we were not a fan of people walking past the spa and being able to look in to the jacuzzi area but the treatments more than made up for this. We had Katie P and Nikki as our therapists and we could not fault the treatments at all, we both agreed it was the best treatments we’ve ever had and both therapists were so accommodating, friendly and experienced. We will definitely be making the 1 hour trip back to stay in the hotel again and to have these treatments again!

A really disappointing experience. I love a manicure and thought I’d try the Glassworks for a change, I left after 10 minutes and won’t be returning.

The therapist was lovely and professional, however the set up was poor. I was sat on a wooden chair, leaning over a low massage table, which I was unable to get my legs under- soon had aching shoulders and an uncomfortable behind.

I was refunded £40 of the £55 paid - so effectively paid £15 for minimal nail shaping and a tiny bit of cuticle work - no soaking or exfoliation or any of the other bits listed as part of the experience. Will not be returning or recommending. Quite the opposite. I really expected more from an established Cambridge Spa attached to a nice hotel.

Had a really good pedicure experience today at 16:45 with Sam. It was my first ever pedicure experience and she made it feel much less awkward than I thought it would be, and even complimented my feet, which I thought would be awful given my lack of care for them. It was great to chat to someone who is clearly enjoying their work. I'm very happy with my finished nails and will be coming again!

I had a great day here, 5/5. I went to use a voucher for a pre-graduation treat.

I began with a group workout class with Emily who was absolutely fantastic. I loved the class and the vibe was very community orientated, encouraging and friendly which I loved.

I then spent some time in the spa facilities. While the spa area is not huge, as the other reviews acknowledge, I found it lovely for a 30minute session across Jacuzzi, steam room and sauna.

I then showered and got ready, and headed to the restaurant next door for afternoon tea. The view was fab but I must admit the afternoon tea was yummy but very rich! Not something I would eat everyday :') but a nice treat nonetheless. As I was alone, I opted to have headphones on and do some reading, which worked well for me and was highly enjoyable.

I then returned to the spa next door to have my treatment: a back, shoulder, arm, and hand massage. The masseuse was lovely. She then offered to do my lower legs to which I really needed!

I then had an elemis facial. Having not had a facial before, I did not know what to expect, but it was so relaxing and the therapist gave me great after advice.

Overall this was a great experience and treat. I found the staff very lovely and the changing room was good too. The whole experience was not overly fussy which I appreciated - it was chilled out.

Would definitely return!

Really enjoyed a spa day here with my partner - the facial and massage were brilliant, and the couples room was lovely and cosy. The spa area itself could do with some tlc, as it felt a little dated.

Had a fantastic and wonderful experience being a member here this summer while I attended classes. I was able to wake up and walk to the gym almost every morning and work out or enjoy the sauna before class. It made a huge difference in my ability to learn and deal with stress. Friendly staff and a great facility. Loved the tea at the front. Even got my hair cut and dyed here, which was very helpful and a great experience. Will join up again when I’m next in Cambridge for an extended time!
