The Spa at Graduate Athens

Came in town for a girl’s weekend and booked massages with Bridget. She was so awesome and accommodating and went out of her way to make sure our experience in Athens was the best it could be– well beyond just our spa time. Had a lovely massage and stay in the hotel. Would highly recommend!

We did an afternoon of massages as part of a bachelorette weekend at the Spa at Graduate Athens. It was an incredible time. Bridget, the spa director, was the best — responsive and accommodating in planning beforehand and generous and fun on the day of. Laid-​back and relaxing — it was the perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon in Athens and to get us geared up for a fun girls’ night ahead!

Awesome atmosphere, helpful staff, and of course an amazing massage– I would live here if they’d let me!

Katie gave me and my boyfriend the best massages EVER! Great pressure; got all of my knots out. I will definitely be back to see her when I’m in town.

While I was not expecting anything remotely negative from the Spa at Foundry Park Inn, I was also not expecting to be blown away. And yet, I was! I went with two girlfriends on a girl’s weekend. One friend and I both got the Herbal Tea Wrap, which consists of dry brushing, a 50-​minute massage, and ends with a wrap in hot towels infused with herbal tea.
The dry brushing was a new experience. I liked it and have read good things about what dry brushing does for the skin. You are actually brushed as the masseuse starts on each part of the body, rather than an all-​over brushing done at once. The massage was one of — if not the best — massage of my life. The pressure was perfection and Jennine got the knots OUT of my neck and upper back, which is no small feat. I actually had full range of motion in my neck afterward (this is a rarity), and she was able to gently manipulate my spine a couple of times (i.e. pop it, which I love, though I don’t think it was on purpose).
I had never had a wrap before and didn’t know what to expect. Basically, the masseuse wraps you in hot towels and you are essentially in a cocoon of warmth while the antioxidants soak into your skin. Ahhhh… wish I was there now. The tea is not sticky at all, and I was surprised by that. As a matter of fact, I didn’t take another shower before going out that night.
The Spa at Foundry Park Inn is a hidden jewel in Athens. The next time I achieve a goal of some sort, my reward for myself out of everything that I can choose will be a day trip to Athens with a stop in at this tranquil, unpretentious Spa. It’s THAT good!

I had the BEST Swedish massage there!

I had a wonderful experience with the rejuvenate package. Jessica Bentley is a wonderful specialist in nails and facials, and my nails look gorgeous, I felt relaxed, and the products worked great. I feel I got my money’s worth, and I hope to go back again soon!
