Bab Samhan introduces new spa with a signature 24ct gold hot stone massage

Introducing Diriyah’s first and only luxury spa, Nafel AlWadi Spa.

Setting a new standard for luxury and holistic wellness in one of Saudi Arabia’s most significant ancient cultural destinations, Bab Samhan, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Diriyah, has proudly announced the opening of the Nafel AlWadi Spa. An immersive wellness experience just steps away from significant Saudi history in Diriyah, this exclusive and indulgent retreat offers guests a sanctuary where the essence of Saudi heritage meets cutting-edge modern wellness.

The spa's distinctive name, Nafel AlWadi, draws profound inspiration from the delicate Nafel plant — a desert wildflower renowned for blossoming in valleys after rainfall, symbolising renewal, vitality, and natural beauty. This philosophy of restoration is woven into the spa’s core mission: to serve as a living symbol of rejuvenation, promising that every guest who enters emerges feeling balanced, harmonious, and profoundly radiant.

The opening of Nafel AlWadi answers the growing demand in the capital city for elevated, localised luxury experiences, and this new addition lends to cementing Bab Samhan’s position as a cornerstone of the city’s opulent new offerings.

Nafel AlWadi Spa translates its nature-inspired philosophy into a tangible, tranquil environment: reflecting the ancient destination in which it is location, the spa's interiors are an earthen retreat, naturally cool and infused with the spa's signature, purifying scent of oud. The commitment to sustainability is evident in luxurious, subtle touches, such as the use of organic linens hand-dyed with natural extracts of pomegranate and acacia.

The extensive facilities ensure a complete wellness journey for all guests, including dedicated treatment rooms for both ladies and gentlemen, authentic hammam spaces, steam and sauna rooms, in addition to spacious changing areas and relaxation lounges. Beyond the treatment spaces, guests can enhance their physical vitality in a state-of-the-art gym, attend group fitness classes, or enjoy a dip in the temperature-controlled indoor pool with an adjacent jacuzzi pool.

For a truly unparalleled experience, guests can select the signature 24ct Gold Plated Hot Stone Massage. This highly exclusive, indulgent treatment harnesses the controlled thermal energy of gold-plated stones to expertly relieve muscle tension, promote superior circulation, and deliver a lasting sensation of deep physical and spiritual restoration. Guests hoping to experience this one-of-a-kind therapy can choose from a 60 minute treatment, or extend the indulgence and enjoy
