North West based Viking Saunas and Steam Rooms has just completed the installation of a bespoke mosaic steam room into the luxury leisure centre at Warner Leisure Hotels Cricket St Thomas hotel in Somerset.

Warner Leisure Hotels is investing millions of pounds in its refurbishment and development programme throughout the group and Viking was contracted to custom-build its luxurious Stratus steam room for the Leisure Club members and hotel guests at Cricket St Thomas Hotel.

Russell Gage, Leisure Centre Manager said: “We are an exclusively for adults private leisure club and hotel, and we wanted to install a new steam room that would enhance the experience for our members and guests.  The Stratus is ideal as I love the feel of the mosaic surface which is really comfortable against the skin and it looks really good.

 “We believe that this new facility highlights the fact that the hotel is investing in our members and guests’ wellbeing.  The results speak for themselves and we have already increased our membership significantly following a membership drive which took place shortly after the installation.

“Members are also commenting on the more exhilarating injection of steam and essence that they are now able to experience.  An added bonus was the installation itself by Viking.  Their team was only on site for just 10 days and caused minimum disruption. I cannot speak highly enough of Viking, they have been brilliant.”

Viking has already installed a number of new facilities in other properties within the Warner Leisure Hotels group and has been delighted with the response from Cricket St Thomas. 

Adrian Glover, sales and design manager from Viking said: “This particular model of Stratus Steam Room that we have installed in the hotel features starry sky and cool blue LED lighting and seats up to ten people.  It is extremely high quality and fits perfectly within the leisure centre environment. 

“It is also built to last and will keep looking good.  I am sure that the hotel’s guests and leisure club members will enjoy and benefit greatly from their new steam room.”
