Sex Hotels, Spas and Love Rooms: Special Spaces to Spice Things Up

Feel like it’s time to break away from the usual routine and enjoy one, incredibly hot and steamy evening? Sex hotels, erotic spas and love rooms are popular amongst couples who are eager to find new ways to explore sensuality.

Some places, dedicated to intimacy don’t limit themselves at making the environment romantic: they also offer total immersion in a world designed to stimulate your desire and awaken your senses. Somewhere between a romantic getaway and a sexual adventure, these options have become a unique alternative to traditional couples outings.

Before we get into the nitty gritty, let’s go over what these terms refer to. Sex hotels, erotic spas, love rooms… every one of these places is particular and offers a singular erotic experience. Each one, however, has the same goal: give couples a special spot in which to nourish their sensuality and enjoy a moment away from their everyday life.

The Lowdown on Sex Hotels, Spas and Love Rooms

Sex hotels are, as the name suggests, hotels that focus on providing you with a sensual night away. They’re similar to a classic hotel, but the rooms are set up in a way that helps to stimulate the imagination: themed decor, suggestive furniture or erotic gear.

Erotic spas enter more so into the well-being category. They're just like your more traditional spas (complete with steam rooms, jacuzzis, massages), but with an added touch of intimacy and sexuality that’s often derived from tantric practices.

Finally love rooms are rooms or suites that have been transformed into a cocoon for romance and naughtiness. These differentiate themselves by the personalised ambiance: sexy lighting, mirrors, poles , or even playful accessories.

Although these three concepts are similar, they are not to be confused. Each one offers a specific approach to intimacy, with its own rules and atmosphere.

Why You Should Choose a Sex Hotel or Love Room For Your Intimate Adventures

If some people find these options so attractive, it’s because they allow couples to play somewhere other than their bedroom. The change in scenery acts as a psychological release: couples find it easier to distance themselves from their usual habits and inhibitions. This encourages experimentation, trying out new role-play scenarios and/or practices that we may not dare to try at home.

There’s also an idea of secrecy and confidentiality. When you enter a sex room or a love hotel, you’re giving yourself permission to inhabit a space in which the usual rules no longer exist. This sensual break allows you to forget everything outside of the room, thus concentrating on shared pleasure.

Finally, these places are designed to be extremely immersive. Everything has been designed to stimulate the imagination: carefully chosen decor, sexy lighting, subtly erotic scents, sensual music… This sensory cocktail reinforces arousal and multiplies sensations.

How They Work

Although just the sound of these places might get you all hot and bothered, just wait until you find out what happens once you’re inside.

In a sex hotel, couples will be transported into another realm with the immersive decor. A jungle theme encourages adventure, a futuristic one plays with mirrors and lights, whilst a space that’s reminiscent of private clubs paves the way for more salacious scenarios.

In an erotic spa, the experience rests on the body and the senses. Hot oil massages are both relaxing and erotic, hot baths create an exquisite atmosphere, and slow gestures encourage taking the time to reconnect with your partner.

Love rooms are designed to cultivate a playful intimate moment between partners. You can sometimes find sex toy sets, furniture designed to switch up positions, or even adjustable lighting that transform a simple evening into an unforgettable experience.

Each place offers a different sensual experience, whether that be playful, relaxing or even surprising. The one thing they all have in common is that the places are especially designed to shake up your routine and ensure wonderfully erotic memories.

How to Choose Between the Three

It all depends on what you want to get out of the experience. If you’re looking for a luxurious, themed atmosphere, then sex hotels are the one for you. For a softer sensory approach, erotic spas are the choice, especially if you want a more subtle start in the erotic hospitality world. When it comes to the love rooms, these are perfect for couples wanting to spice up a romantic evening by adding a dose of sensuality.

Location

Don’t forget to think about location. Do you want a quick getaway not far from home? Or would you prefer a weekend long change of scenery? Make sure to check out the customer reviews, as it will help you to avoid any nasty surprises and ensure the quality of your sexy escapade. Of course, budget is also an important factor: some rooms are more accessible, costing around £100 per night, whereas other high range options with specialised equipment can reach a few hundred quid.

Our Advice for a Successful Sexy Getaway

In order to get the most out of these experiences, it might be a good idea to prepare a little surprise for your partner. Making the reservation a surprise, bringing some of your favourite sex toys, or coming up with a sexy scenario/ roleplay for the evening may just take things up a notch. It’s also important to have fun with it! Try not to plan everything down to the finest details, let yourself just fully enjoy the moment. You don’t have to tick off a to-do list, just enjoy the immersive, sensory experience that’ll no doubt deepen arousal.

Sex hotels, erotic spas and love rooms are not reserved solely for extroverted couples, or lovers of extreme practices. They represent a new way to cultivate intimacy, explore sexual desire and reinforce intimate bonds between partners thanks to these specially dedicated spaces. Whether you’re tempted by a themed evening, sensory immersion in a spa, or a romantic evening spiced up by added extras, these places encourage you to push your sexual boundaries, all whilst ensuring sensual memories for you and your partner.
