There's a new spa in town: Check out Nafel AlWadi Spa at Bab Samhan Hotel
No matter what you’re looking for, you’re guaranteed to find your bliss at this brand-new spa
Fresh off its win as Favourite Luxury Hotel in Riyadh at the What’s On Saudi Arabia Awards 2025, Bab Samhan, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Diriyah continues to raise the bar for refined indulgence.
The iconic property has just added another jewel to its crown – Nafel Al Wadi Spa. Relax, unwind, and rejuvenate with an escape to the first and only luxury spa in Diriyah.
What’s in a name?
The name Nafel Al Wadi is inspired by the Nafel plant, a delicate desert wildflower that blossoms in valleys after rainfall, symbolising renewal, vitality, and natural beauty. Just as the wadi comes alive when water nourishes the land, the spa reflects this spirit of rejuvenation, promising that each guest emerges renewed and radiant.
Nafel Al Wadi Spa is more than a destination. It is a living symbol of restoration, designed to help guests reconnect with balance, harmony, and inner peace.
What’s the vibe?
At Nafel Al Wadi Spa, it’s not just the spa that will leave you feeling relaxed – the stunning interiors and state-of-the-art facilities are an oasis of calm in themselves.
Interiors are designed as an earthen retreat. Naturally cool, scented with purifying oud, and enriched with sustainable touches such as organic linens hand-dyed with natural extracts of pomegranate and acacia.
Visitors to Nafel Al Wadi Spa can enjoy a steam room, sauna and a stunning, temperature-controlled indoor pool with lifeguard supervision, complemented by a Jacuzzi pool.
Other facilities include dedicated treatment rooms for both ladies and gentlemen, hammam spaces, serene changing areas, and state-of-the-art gym featuring group fitness classes.
Guests can unwind before and after their treatment or workout in the relaxation lounges.
What should you try?
We doubt you can really go wrong at Nafel Al Wadi Spa. What you should try depends on what you’re looking for. Perhaps the most exceptional way to experience the spa is to book the signature 24CT Gold Plated Hot Stone Massage. It’s an indulgent therapy using controlled heat release from gold-plated stones to relieve tension, enhance circulation, and deeply restore the body.
The beautiful décor and relaxed vibes make Nafel Al Wadi Spa the perfect place to indulge yourself, and the luxury skincare brands at the spa – Amra, which uses rare ingredients for results-oriented therapies that blend indulgence with effectiveness, and Omorovicza, celebrated for its mineral-rich innovations – are all of your pampering fantasies, realised.
Who can go?
Good news: Nafel Al Wadi Spa welcomes both hotel guests and the general public. The spa is open daily, with treatments available from 1pm to 10pm, and access to the wet areas, gym, and pool from 6am to 10pm.
We think it’s high time you carved out some self-care time…
