All that glitters is not gold. All that sparkles is not silver. But if something shimmers can it make you slimmer? We think it can. Shiny, pretty atmospheres make you smile and when you smile you’re happy and when you’re happy you’re energetic and when you’re energetic you lose weight. Well, maybe not, but at The Roxbury at least you have a place to go to where you can relax, sit in a hot tub or sauna, cool off in a shower made out of soothing river rock, warm yourself back up in front of a dancing fireplace, and then start the process all over again or go back to your room for a snooze.

Let’s get one thing straight off the bat. The Shimmer Spa is NOT a big full-service spa with separate male and female changing areas and hallways full of multiple treatment rooms with attendants serving you fruit smoothies or gooping them all over your skin. The Shimmer Spa IS a place where you can go to relax in an intimate 600 sq ft “mini-spa” made of thousands of shimmering iridescent mosaic tiles. Oh yeah, and it has a hot tub, a dry sauna, a fireplace, a bathroom, and a wonderful shower made of black river rock that massages your feet while you take a shower. It also has a treatment room separated from the main room by a curtain. We offer most of our spa treatments in that room or, if you're staying in one of our kitchenettes or suites, we can occasionally offer some of our treatments in your own room. Usage of the spa facilities is $20 per person per stay (not per day) and the spa is open from 8:00am to 8:00pm. PLEASE NOTE THAT WE STRONGLY SUGGEST BOOKING YOUR SPA TREATMENTS AS FAR IN ADVANCE AS POSSIBLE. TIME SLOTS FILL UP QUICKLY AND WE CANNOT ALWAYS GUARANTEE THAT TREATMENTS WILL BE AVAILABLE IF YOU DO NOT BOOK AT LEAST 48 HOURS PRIOR TO YOUR STAY. THE SHIMMER SPA AND SPA TREATMENTS ARE AVAILABLE TO GUESTS OF THE ROXBURY ONLY, IT IS NOT OPEN TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC. Click here for a list of all of our in-house spa treatments.

 


Wrinkle Tingle Don’t ya love it when the skin on your fingertips and toes get all wrinkly from sitting in a hot tub with jets hitting you in all of the right places? We do. Don’t ya love it when your skin tingles all over from cooling off in a nice shower after being cooked in a hot sauna? Oh we do. We thought you might too. That’s why we built The Shimmer Spa.
