Malaysia – March 2016: YTL Hotels is proud to announce that The Gainsborough Bath Spa was winner of the 'Bathing Beauty' award at Monday night's Tatler Spa Awards 2016, that are held in conjunction with the launch of the prestigious annual Tatler Spa Guide, in which the accolades are compiled from first-hand experiences of the Tatler team and contributors, celebrating the very best spa experiences and innovations from around the world. The Gainsborough Bath Spa is delighted to be a part of such an exclusive collection.

The award congratulates the Gainsborough Bath Spa's incredible spa experience that takes guests on a ritualised and immersive self-guided tour in a modern day Roman Bath circuit. This is the only hotel in the UK to offer its guests' exclusive access to Bath's famed natural thermal waters complemented by a selection of spa treatments and aquatic therapies in its beautiful Spa Village. This accolade continues to position The Gainsborough Bath Spa as an exceptional luxury spa hotel globally, as well as locally, since its official opening in September 2015.

The hotel is the newest addition to the YTL Hotels portfolio of luxury properties. The 99-room hotel is ideally located along Beau Street, minutes away from the city's historical attractions, shopping and restaurant districts, and directly opposite the Thermae Bath Spa. This historic property is located just a five-minute walk from the Bath Spa train station, and a 90-minute train journey from London.

The only member of The Leading Hotels of the World in South West England, this holistic landmark is one of YTL Hotels' most significant openings to date, and is set to be a future iconic property in the UK and internationally. Today, The Gainsborough Bath Spa stands as YTL Hotels' first Classic Hotel in Europe.
