Yield to the Magic at Guerlain Spa

On September 1st 2008, The Waldorf=Astoria will unveil a luxurious new Spa and Fitness Center. Guerlain, a subsidiary of the renowned luxury goods conglomerate LVMH, has joined with The Waldorf=Astoria in announcing this major addition to the hotel. Expanding The Waldorf’s already impressive list of amenities, the spa will ensure an extraordinary rejuvenation experience for every guest. Featuring 16 treatment rooms—each with its own private bath and dressing room—and two relaxation lounges, this $21.5 million facility will occupy much of the 19th floor and require closing of the current spa operations.

Spa guests will indulge in one of the world’s most sublime experiences—the complete range of Guerlain’s renowned beauty and wellbeing treatments. Each visit unfolds as an exquisite union of effective know-how, individual skin analysis, and soothing, aesthetic expertise. From the full-day Cocooning Impériale, with 5-Senses Hydrotherapy, Body Polish, massage, and Intensive facial, hand, and foot therapies, to the one-hour Radiance Facial with deep cleansing, facial therapy and mask, treatments reflect the essence of Guerlain. Guests are immersed in an environment of incomparable tranquility and transformation, with each moment designed and focused on their specific needs and desires.

Located just off the Main Lobby near the legendary Clock Tower, the Spa Boutique retails the exquisite skincare, fragrance, and makeup collections of Guerlain Paris. It also serves as your personal outpost and booking lounge, affording the opportunity to make reservations and acquire the fragrance and skincare products used in each Guerlain Spa therapy. Should you desire spa gift certificates for yourself, family, friends, and business associates, you can purchase them there, as well.

The opening of the spa and its accompanying boutique mark an unparalleled partnership between Guerlain and The Waldorf=Astoria—two of the world’s most historic and best-loved brands. It represents the peak of achievement as these emblems of luxury collaborate for the gratification of you, our guest.
