Galgorm’s Thermal Spa Village is celebrating another accolade for its globally renowned spa, winning ‘Best UK Spa’ at the AA Hotel Spa Awards.
Newly launched this year, the awards organised by AA Hotel & Hospitality Services recognise and celebrate the standards of hotel spa facilities across the UK.
Following a careful selection process, the AA inspectors identified that Galgorm’s Thermal Spa Village was best in the UK due to its exceptional and exemplary spa standards and outstanding wellness experiences.
The award adds to the growing collection of accolades for the Resort, which has been widely commended for its sustained commitment to excellence and has attracted international recognition from across the wider hospitality and luxury spa industry.
