Spa Day attire

I've been gifted a spa day and am really looking forward to it, but I always find the dressing gowns usually provided are bulky, short, uncomfortable to wear and smell of bleach. I haven't been to a lots of spa days, but would it be appropriate to take my own dressing gown or is that frowned on?

Mine isn't white, it's lightweight cotton one with quite a busy floral design so wouldn't exactly fit in with the crowd and this is what gives me pause.

I'm probably really overthinking this.

I’m sure they wouldn’t say anything. Could you give them a call or email and ask? Would you be upset if all the oils etc they use rubbed off onto your dressing gown?

No one would mind but as already sai it might get stained with oil etc depending on the treatment you are getting

I don’t think I’d mind if it gets a bit oily, it has a very busy pattern and probably won’t show. It’s quite old anyway, but not at all tatty.

Has anyone seen guests take their own robe to these things?
I want to be comfy.
