Here’s a rundown of the city’s best places for guaranteed relaxation.  
 

 



 

 



 

 

 

 

## AMAN SPA AT THE CONNAUGHT

Built on the four pillars of health and wellness (nutrition, movement, psychological health and bodywork), the Aman Spa prizes both mental and physical wellbeing. With the lights turned down, it is a tranquil space in which to step away from the everyday world and rejuvenate. Good for solo guests, its treatments go long and your sense of relaxation will be deep.

ESPALIFE AT CORINTHIA

Alongside the swimming pool and sauna, this spa has no fewer than 17 treatment rooms. It takes a holistic approach to wellbeing, offering treatments from osteopathy to reflexology, as well as a range of massages. For anyone looking to unwind on their own, there’s a thermal floor, ice fountain and private sleep pods. Want to do more than just lounge? ‘Train and Treat’ packages get you a consultation and training session with a pro, then a post-workout massage and use of the spa.
