A full-service day spa, in a 1872 heritage house.
Massage, facials, skincare, laser, spa packages and a full salon, all under one heritage roof in Ancaster, minutes from Hamilton. Cared for by a team that has been here for years.
A full-service day spa in Ancaster, Ontario
The Spa at Ancaster is a full-service day spa at 343 Wilson Street East in Ancaster, Ontario, set inside a restored 1872 heritage stone house and serving Ancaster, Hamilton and the western Greater Toronto Area. Since 1996 we have brought registered massage therapy, Swiss and French facials, medical esthetics, laser hair removal, hands and feet, body treatments and a full hair salon together under one roof. Whether you are booking a single treatment on a lunch break or a full day for two, you are cared for by a team that has been here for years, in a private and welcoming heritage setting rather than a clinical treatment room. It is a different kind of spa day, and it is the reason guests travel in from across the region.

A spa day in a house that has stood since 1872
The Spa at Ancaster is set inside a restored 1872 stone house, designated under the Ontario Heritage Act. It is not a treatment room in a strip mall. Across more than 6,500 square feet on two floors are treatment rooms, a wet room with heated granite massage tables, a sauna and steam room, a full hair salon and two private couples rooms, one with a double hydrotherapy bath and a fireplace.
You are greeted, settled into a robe and slippers, and given tea before anything begins. There is free parking at the front and the rear, and the building is fully wheelchair accessible.

A spa day is only as good as the hands you are in.
In an industry known for high turnover, much of our team has been here ten to twenty years or more, several through the change of ownership.
Your massage is delivered by a Registered Massage Therapist in good standing with the College of Massage Therapists of Ontario, and our estheticians hold a recognized diploma and years of experience with the Valmont, Guinot and Phytomer lines.
When booking, feel free to request your preferred therapist. Our team prides itself on building lasting relationships and welcoming back our returning guests.
