The Hall Garth Hotel Darlington, Sure Hotel Collection by BW is a great spot for leisure and relaxation, but the spa area could use some improvements according to guest reviews. Some guests have noted that the spa facilities are very tired, tatty and in need of an upgrade. Despite this, the leisure facilities which include a gym, sauna and steam room were deemed adequate. One of the buildings housed the spa and a small swimming pool which although functional was also in need of refurbishment. Some patrons also cited the lack of tokens for the pool and kids taking over the pool and jacuzzi as minor nuisances. However, the spa staff and treatments received high acclaim with some citing it as the best massage and facial ever. Overall, while some aspects of the spa need improvement, the team at Hall Garth are doing their best to ensure that their guests have a great leisure experience.
