The ride from the airport to the city centre using public transport takes about 50 minutes.

How to find the best spa hotel deal in Raipur
Book in advance
Planning ahead can make a difference, especially if you've got your eye on a particular spa hotel or treatment. Weekends and holiday periods can fill up fast, so the earlier you book, the more options you're likely to have.
Or score last-minute Raipur spa hotel deals
Outside of busy months, hotels sometimes cut rates at short notice to fill unsold rooms. You'll often have more luck finding availability on weekdays rather than at weekends, and being flexible with appointment times can also help.
Flexible dates can unlock better prices
Check rates over several months before you book. Spa hotel packages in Raipur can cost a lot more at weekends than during the week. If you stay from Sunday to Thursday, and travel outside major events and holidays, you're likely to pay less.
Things to know before booking a spa hotel in Raipur
Before booking, it's useful to know what you can expect from a spa hotel. It can mean anything from a hydrotherapy pool to a full range of massages and treatments. Here's what to check for.
Spa access and inclusions
Some hotels include spa access with your stay, while others charge an additional fee. Treatments are usually an additional cost, while some facilities may need to be booked ahead.
Spa facilities
The right spa facilities can make for a more relaxing stay. Outdoor pools are great for unwinding, while thermal baths and hydrotherapy circuits are designed to soothe tired muscles.
When comparing spa facilities, saunas provide dry heat, steam rooms use warm humidity, and hammams pair steam with traditional bathing rituals. Room service and a lounge are among the most popular facilities at a number of spa hotels in Raipur.
You may also come across dedicated relaxation areas, giving you a quiet place to unwind after a treatment. Some destinations are also famous for thermal springs, where mineral-rich waters have long been associated with therapeutic benefits.
To narrow your search when browsing for Raipur hotel and spa deals, open the 'Amenities' filter and select the 'Leisure and Entertainment' tab.
Spa treatments and wellness experiences
There's more to a spa hotel than just facials and massages. As well as the typical spa basics, you may find aromatherapy, body treatments and beauty services. Some also feature couples treatments, yoga sessions and fitness classes.

Low season in Raipur
