Nestled inside the elegant Premier Hotel, this is the tranquil escape locals swear by for genuine calm, expert care, and memorable spa moments.

In a city full of options, views, and experiences, what makes Orchid stand out as the best spa East London has to offer? From tried‑and‑tested pampering treatments to calm, welcoming spaces and glowing word‑of‑mouth reviews, we’re peeling back the curtain on why this gem keeps winning hearts (and easing tension).
Peace Without Pretence: Because Stillness Should Feel Easy
The first thing our regulars mention is how the space feels. Not the décor or the aromas. There’s a sense of ease and quiet that greets you the moment you step through the doors. Calm doesn’t have to be fancy and flashy, it just needs to be genuine. And that’s precisely the atmosphere we try to cultivate.
Located on the serene beachfront at Premier Hotel East London, Orchid spa blends professional expertise with a down-to-earth warmth locals adore. It’s the kind of space East Londoners return to again and again, not just to be pampered, but to unwind fully. With five rooms with the best ocean views in the house, it’s not just an escape for a bit of pampering – it's an experience of calmness.

Treatments Locals Can’t Stop Talking About
Sure, the ambiance of a spa matters, but a true spa experience is defined by the kind of treatment and care you get. Orchid's menu includes a selection of luxurious pampering treatments that have consistently earned praise, keeping us top of mind for recommending the best spa in East London.

Deep Calm for On-the-Go Minds
When stress is at an all-time high, and your to-do list feels longer than your holiday list was, this is the reset button you need. Not as a cry for help, but as a supportive measure to help you relax.
The So Serene package, for example, gives you two hours of a beautifully balanced treatment designed to ease all the built-up muscle tension and invite deep relaxation. It’s one of the most talked-about choices for those wanting a little more than just a “nice” massage.
Restoration for Tired Bodies
Post-work week tension and long days on your feet got you down? This is where locals go for an indulgent Journey to Restoration. A thoughtfully sequenced two-and-a-half-hour spa journey to ease tight muscles and restore energy from head to toe, this experience is regularly bookmarked in calendars as a mid-month reset. Now you know why.
Some Extra Time to Let Go
Sometimes an hour just isn’t enough, even the regulars know this.
For those days when you really need to let the world drift away, two and a half hours of Orchid Tranquillity is the experience that combines several techniques to soothe your skin and muscles (and senses) deeply, leaving you lighter in more ways than one. The combination of facial treatment, a body wrap, and signature massage is all it takes to breathe in peace and exhale all the tension.
Get The Spa Experience for All Ages
One of the locals’ favourite things about Orchid, and what makes it stand out as the best spa in East London by choice, is its inclusivity. It’s not just for solo escapes or couples dates and group experiences, it’s for families and special moments too.
The Kiddies Spa selection is especially popular for birthdays, school holiday treats, or simply rewarding little ones after a big milestone. It brings a sense of fun and care to younger spa enthusiasts in a way parents genuinely appreciate. The kids’ spa deals are there for fun bonding time and an experience that will stay with them forever.
Simple Ways Locals Maximise Their Spa Visits
Being the best is one thing, but feeling it every time you walk in, is another. Locals and regulars have shared a few clever ways they make the most of their spa days:
Book Midweek for Quieter Escapes
While weekend escapes are great, a mid-week booking lands so much softer. It means the space is more peaceful with less noise and fewer people about, so you get more personalized time with the therapist.
Pair Your Spa Time with Local Life
Many of our regulars make a morning of it with a quick calming treatment, followed by a stroll along the beachfront or a leisurely lunch at the Premier Hotel restaurant. Leisure doesn’t have to be manufactured and unattainable. We make it accessible.
Share the Experience
From anniversaries to friendship celebrations, spa time is far more memorable when it’s shared. That’s where our couples spa packages steal the show. They’re designed for shared calm and mutual renewal. Bring the crew, besties, partner, and even your mom for a moment of calm.
It’s Not Just Hype
There’s a reason why we are on everyone’s minds. It’s never just about some pampering treatments and lavender oils. It’s always been about making you feel restored, alive, and calm.
If you’ve been wondering why so many locals call Orchid Day Spa the best spa East London has to offer, now’s the perfect time to discover it for yourself. Explore the full range of treatments and book your own moment of calm today.
