Waldorf Astoria New York reopens the Guerlain Spa
The Guerlain Spa at The Waldorf Astoria New York recently reopened its doors bringing a new era of indulgence with the Guerlain Abeille Royale Expert Treatment, a new Wellness Lounge equipped with iPads, and a spa cuisine menu with light, seasonal fare and a signature spa cocktail. Located on the 19th floor of the Waldorf Towers, The Guerlain Spa at The Waldorf Astoria was designed by architectural firm AC Martin, together with Guerlain itself and draws inspiration from the hotel’s legendary Art Deco style. The 14,000 sq ft space offers guests sweeping views of Park Avenue and Manhattan and features 16 treatment rooms, with 13 dry rooms and three fully appointed wet therapy suites for hydrotherapy and Vichy showers. The Guerlain Spa also features the exclusive Guerlain Méthode and advanced skincare technologies. With an emphasis on customization, Guerlain Spa’s therapeutic remedies are meant to relax and ease the mind and body and are provided by specialists who impart the elegance and aroma of professional Guerlain products throughout each service.
Its signature treatment, the new Abeille Royale Expert Treatment is an anti-aging, lifting and firming facial, featuring the Pure Royal Concentrate from Guerlain’s Abeille Royale skincare collection, harnessed by the power of bee products to produce immediate visible results. The 90 minute, four-step facial includes a thorough exfoliation using natural rice powder, relaxing massage with two “stamps” filled with natural powders to heal, purify and soften the skin and the application of the breakthrough skincare from Guerlain, customized to fit each skin condition.
Another highlight is the new “Wellness Lounge,” a spacious relaxation space where guests can enjoy light fare and specialty spa cocktails created by The Waldorf Astoria New York’s executive chef, Frank Caiafa, using only fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. The newly crafted spa menu is available for order via iPads available in the lounge areas.
