Review: Kingsgate Woodhouse Day Spa | Chic This Week

My favorite spa in Cincinnati is HANDS DOWN?Woodhouse Day Spa in Montgomery. I love its location (lots of cute shops and restaurants nearby), its products (many are organic), and that it?s not a salon and spa. It?s solely a spa, so you?re not straining to relax to the sound of hairdryers and smell of hairspray. You can truly relax.

So, of course, I was super excited when I read about the new Kingsgate Mariott Woodhouse location?in Cincy Chic a few months ago. This location is really convenient for me because?I?m always running from meeting to meeting downtown. So, I made an appointment for a facial and manicure to look fresh and fabulous for the New Kids on the Block concert on Tuesday (which was an AWESOME concert, by the way!).

The?Kingsgate Mariott, which is basically on the UC campus,?was easy to find. Woodhouse took over the previous spa?s space, so once you get into the Mariott look for ?spa? signage (not ?Woodhouse? like I did? blonde moment! haha!), and it?s located on the 3rd floor. Once you step inside, it?s like a mini version of the Montgomery Woodhouse location. It smells the same, has the same cozy white robes, and same great spa experience.

They do have a limited menu there, but have all the basic nail, massage, esthetic services. I usually get shellac if I get my nails done, and they don?t offer that at this location, so I got a regular french mani. She did one of the best French manis I?ve ever had (they?re so easy to screw up!) so I was really happy with it.

What I REALLY loved though was my facial. They used an organic cherry scrub that smelled like sweet, summery heaven. It was also pretty much a whole upper body massage too ? she worked my shoulders, arms, hands and neck ? which is where I hold all my tension anyway. After the facial, I felt super relaxed and my skin was glowing!

So, I definitely recommend checking it out, especially if you work downtown or are near the UC campus. It?s a great way to get the all the fabulous Woodhouse basics at a more convenient location!

The new Woodhouse Day Spa is located inside the Kingsgate Mariott?at?151 Goodman Drive Cincinnati, Ohio 45219. You do need to pay for parking at this location (I paid $10 for three hours), so keep that in mind. But I?d pay any amount of money?to avoid wasting time, gas and my sanity fighting traffic on I-71, so it?s definitely worth it!
