Whether you want to warm up with a cup of tea or freshen up with a glass of fruit-infused water, the Five-Star spa has more-than-adequate refreshments for you.

Your best bet for getting an appointment at The Greenbrier Spa is to make it when you book a room at the resort. If you’re not planning on staying at The Greenbrier, you can call the spa directly to book your treatment. We suggest you book your appointment about two to three weeks in advance in order to get your perfect treatment. Though the concierge at The Greenbrier can certainly try to get you a last-minute appointment, they cannot always guarantee availability of both your treatment and preferred therapist. The Greenbrier Spa has 60 treatment rooms, however, so there’s a good chance that you can get your treatment of choice at your preferred time.
