Rare is the spa that has its own Scientific Advisory Board. But then rare is the spa that is as concerned with neuroscience and nutrition as it is with essential oils and four hands massage. Created with the not insubstantial aim of ‘setting a new paradigm in longevity and human optimisation’, Surrenne, in Old Barrack Yard, Knightsbridge, is an unapologetic game-changer, ushering in a new era of wellness by combining technology with modern ritual. Spread over four floors, and involving renowned architects such as Rémi Tessier and the late Richard Rogers, Surrenne was years in the making. The transformational wellbeing club, in the heart of Knightsbridge, brings together some of the brightest scientific minds in the space, with the advisory board including New York cosmetic specialist Dr Lara Devgan, Lifespan author Dr David Sinclair and Dr Mark Mikhail of 3 Peaks Health. They offer members and hotel guests the latest in evidence-based methodologies and neuroscience-backed diagnostics. In short, you will see results.

A portmanteau of serenity and energy, Surrenne is all about personalised treatment and elevating what you consider ‘well’. Like the proverbial boiled frog, most of us are unaware of the toll that the modern world takes on our health. That’s something that Inge Theron, Creative Director of Spa and Wellness, feels is ready to change. ‘The spa industry has blown up in this post-Covid era,’ she explains. As founder of global phenomenon FaceGym and a former Financial Times ‘Spa Junkie’ columnist, Theron would know. ‘I’ve never seen such a radical global shift in the approach to wellbeing. With the incredible advancements in lifespan, we can all set our sights on 100 now. “Living longer, better” is the mission and destinations such as Surrenne are the platform. ‘What is great about Surrenne is we meet our customer where they are. Not everyone may have lofty ambitions. If you just want to look great in your bikini this summer, we got you. Want to climb Everest? We can help you too. Science-backed and evidence-based protocols help our members achieve their goals. Educating around small behavioural changes can make a huge difference, and creating a sumptuous space where doing good feels great, is the key.’
Those lucky enough to visit Surrenne will have a head start when it comes to living longer, better. Everymember is given a medical consultation that includes blood analysis, glucose monitoring and baseline testing, to ensure their fitness journey is based on the ultimate personally tailored programme. That programme could include fine-tuned fitness in the elegant studio, a daily snow shower (a gentler approach to cryotherapy), a purifying white onyx wet spa experience or a few moments in a hyperbaric chamber to increase oxygen delivery to the body, boost energy and fight infection. There is also serious luxury. You’ll find Dyson Airwraps in the changing rooms, an ‘I need it all’ massage on the treatment menu (a blissful blend of deep tissue, Thai massage, Ayurveda, Shiatsu and trigger points) and your training kit laundered after each visit. Attention to detail stretches even to the tap water, which can be altered to the pH levels required. Designed by architect Rémi Tessier, each floor is dedicated to one activity.
The ‘water, heat and steam’ floor has a 22-metre lap pool with an inbuilt sound system, surrounded by cabanas with ‘press for service’ buttons, a state-of-the-art sauna and steam room (with four aroma infusions to savour), London’s only snow shower and a small café where you can choose bespoke smoothies or champagne (this is still Maybourne, after all). On another floor is fitness and personal training, with equipment so aesthetically pleasing – Pelotons, Woodway treadmills and customised Technogym equipment – you’ll actually want to work out. There are yoga and Pilates facilities with a high-definition screening wall, if you want your sound bath or downward dog instruction to come from a Himalayan mountainside. And there are high-tech recovery tools. including a body composition scanner that walks gymgoers through their metrics and provides post-workout macronutrient feedback, and a Hyperice machine that massages tired muscles.
A third floor houses the ‘spa and longevity’ section. There you’ll find a signature crafted wet room and experiences that include scalp therapy, an OxyGeneo machine (which uses oxygen to revitalise exhausted faces) and Ashiatsu massage, in which therapists dangle from bars to tend clients with their feet. Finally, a whole floor is dedicated to Tracy Anderson Method classes. With cedarwood and traditional rattan, onyx vanity tops, Baccarat fittings and terrazzo flooring, designer Tessier has ensured that the fitness guru’s first UK studio is minimalist, relaxing and serene – an underground oasis in the middle of the city. Daylight filters into the space from the roof, creating a connection with the outside world while retaining the privacy you expect.
