A SINDLESHAM day spa is to enhance its facilities by creating a hotel on site, allowing its guests to stay for longer.
Nirvana Spa on Mole Lane has announced it intends to start work on the new building in the spring.
When completed it says there will be 72 suites.
In a post on its website, the company wrote: “We are often told that after a relaxing day exploring our spa facilities and unwinding on a lounger you don’t want to leave.
“We are thrilled to announce that this spring our dreams of a Nirvana Spa hotel will start to unfold and the ultimate blissful escape to Nirvana Spa will soon become a reality.
“Our hotel will boast 72 spacious suites, each elegantly styled to induce calm with an extra-large, comfy bed to sink into after your day in the spa along with a peaceful lounge space.”
There will be a spa garden with a 33.3m outdoor pool and patio, while inside the hotel there will be a gym, and state-of-the-art equipment is promised to members.
Nirvana’s blog post added: “We aim to break soil on this incredible development early in the Spring of 2023 and we anticipate a 24-month build time.”
Planning permission for the hotel was granted in August 2020 by Wokingham Borough Council for a 70-bed two-storey hotel, with outdoor swimming pool, car parking and soft landscaping. Works have to commence within three years.
A rooftop garden will be created, but can only open between 11am and 9pm, with the lights to be turned off when closed to protect neighbours
Conditions include the demolition of the former Pulse8 gym and works restricted to 8am to 6pm weekdays and 8am to 1pm on Saturdays. Work on Sundays and bank holidays is forbidden.
