  • Pool deck has scheduled events (Sunset Swim) and some nightlife access is restricted to 21+ in evenings.

Thompson pairs a fitness center with a full-service spa and a quieter, more polished evening bar scene.

  • Full-service spa requires reservations for treatments and offers a range of services.
  • Fitness facilities and a steam room support wellness-focused stays.
  • On-site bar/lounge and poolside bar provide evening drink options without the same club-style programming as Virgin.

Thompson is the choice for guests who want spa-driven relaxation and classic hotel bars rather than a club atmosphere.
