Best Hotel Spas in Midtown East
For spa lovers, a vacation just isn’t a vacation without some regimented relaxation, especially in New York, where the grit and grime can really get under your skin — both literally and figuratively. These Midtown East hotels have some of the best spas in the city.
The Maxwell New York City
Midtown East, New York City, New York, United States
The W New York houses one of the city's most popular spas, Bliss, which originated in New York but has now expanded into franchises all over the world (usually in conjunction with W Hotels). Located on the hotel's fourth floor, this brightly lit spa with cloud-covered walls and a happy blue color scheme has an extensive menu of available treatments. Compared to other luxury hotel spas, the prices are reasonable -- manicures start at $25, massages at $70, and waxes at $15. There is also a Bliss boutique on the first floor of the hotel, and all guests receive complimentary Bliss toiletries.
Waldorf Astoria New York
Midtown East, New York City, New York, United States
The 14,000-square-foot Guerlain Spa -- one of two in the U.S., the other being at the posh Regent Bal Harbour hotel in Miami -- opened in September 2008 and offers a wide range of luxurious treatments using the Guerlain brand's signature products. Most spa treatments (including those tailored for men) cost $300 to $500, but the highest of the high-end experiences is the $2,175 Sublime Deluxe transforming day experience, which lasts seven hours and 45 minutes.
