One of Australia’s most iconic wellness destinations, Hepburn Bathhouse and Spa, is marking its 130th anniversary in spectacular style with the unveiling of twelve newly refurbished private bathing rooms, a refreshed treatment menu and a stunning new look throughout the iconic property.

And if that wasn’t enough, the property has marked this significant milestone by teaming up with Ch 9’s The Block, with the cast recently calling “tools down” on a renovation onsite. The results of their hard work will be revealed in the highly anticipated series of episodes airing later this year, with the project resulting in one of the teams winning the biggest challenge prize in Block history.

Providing some much-awaited relief for those mineral bathing enthusiasts, there are now twelve stunning private bathing areas now open. Five of these private baths have been completely transformed, offering a unique visual aesthetic to cater for a variety of tastes.

Whilst the Bathhouse Mineral Bathing Sanctuary Bathing remains closed until July 2025 for restoration works, guests are still invited to immerse themselves in the many other indulgences on offer, including soaking in serene seclusion in the private baths, the all-new treatment menu, the luxe accommodation, the historic Pavilion café and the gorgeous bushwalks surrounding the property.

SJ Tilbury, Belgravia Leisure’s General Manager of Wellness, said the milestone presented the perfect opportunity to honour the Bathhouse’s legacy while unveiling a fresh vision for the future.

“Celebrating 130 years invites us to reflect on the deep connection so many guests have with this special place,” said Tilbury. “This transformation is a tribute to our heritage and a bold step forward. We’ve revitalised the entire property to elevate every touchpoint—whether it’s through our spa treatments, private bathing or a new locally inspired menu at the Pavilion Cafe.

“To top it off, we’ve had the incredible opportunity to collaborate with The Block. Their creativity and craftsmanship have brought something truly unique to Hepburn Bathhouse and Spa, and we can’t wait for our guests—and the rest of Australia—to see what they’ve created.”

New Spa Menu

Guests can now book from a thoughtfully curated new spa menu, featuring luxurious body and facial treatments.

Highlights include four indulgent new body rituals such as the Cacao Chocolate and Shiraz Body Scrub in partnership with Australian spa brand Waterlily, and four bespoke facials using globally renowned skincare brand Elemis.

A newly renovated private steam room experience is also now available for one or two guests. The ritual begins with a visit to the Apothecary, where guests blend their own custom body scrub with natural ingredients, followed by a self-guided steam experience that’s both purifying and deeply relaxing.
