Are you in need of an escape from the ordinary? Are you craving a taste of luxury and tranquillity right here in Ipoh? Well, you’re in luck! Experience The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat – where luxury and relaxation await, even without booking a room for the night.
Surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of Ipoh, The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat invites us to a peaceful escape from the hectic pace of everyday life. This secluded sanctuary offers a moment of tranquillity for those seeking solace and rejuvenation.
But what exactly does The Banjaran have to offer locals?
For starters, indulge in a decadent Champagne Breakfast at the esteemed POMELO Restaurant. Led by the talented Chef Boon, this culinary experience is a feast for the senses, featuring a delectable spread of farm-to-table delights. From aromatic Nasi Lemak to indulgent Steak & Eggs, each dish is crafted with care and precision, promising a morning of gastronomic delight.
Diners can also enjoy Creamy Spinach, Eggs Florentine, Curry Noodle Soup, Turkish Coban Salad, Milk Lava Toast, Waffles, and more. With unlimited refills of real French Champagne (none of the sparkling -wine-Prosecco wannabes), freshly squeezed fruit juices, and a variety of coffee and tea options, you’re sure to start your day on a high note.
But the luxury doesn’t stop there. The Banjaran also offers a Day Pass option, allowing you to immerse yourself in the resort’s therapeutic amenities. From soothing geothermal hot springs to a tranquil Meditation Cave, guests can indulge in a day of relaxation and rejuvenation. It’s the perfect opportunity to unwind, recharge, and escape from the stresses of everyday life.
The Day Pass costs RM350 and grants access to the resort’s facilities, including the Geothermal Hot Springs Dipping Pools, Thermal Steam Cave, Ice Bath, Meditation Cave, Crystal Cave, Garra Rufa Doctor Fish Pool, Fitness Centre, and Freeform Swimming Pool. Buggy services throughout the resort are also available for guests’ convenience.
For centuries, local people have understood the therapeutic benefits of these mineral-rich waters, which flow through the mountains and are purified by the prehistoric limestone rocks. Bathing in these geothermal pools can help to revitalise the skin, improve circulation, reduce stress, and even ease pain in the body.
“We are thrilled to offer these packages for Malaysians to experience,” says General Manager, Mr. Marc Groh. “In addition to the Champagne Breakfast and Day Pass, The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat also offers various wellness therapies and activities for guests to indulge in, from Ayurvedic massages to yoga sessions, ensuring a truly holistic experience.”
In keeping with the exclusivity and ideals of this bespoke sanctuary, The Banjaran only permits adults and guests 12 years of age and above. Pre-booking is required, and free parking is provided for all guests. The retreat is also wheelchair-friendly, with buggy services available for added convenience.
So, what are you waiting for? Treat yourself to a day of luxury and relaxation at The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat. Whether you’re savouring a Champagne Breakfast, unwinding with a Day Pass, or indulging in wellness therapies, you’re guaranteed an unforgettable experience that will leave you feeling refreshed and fabulous!
