The Dorchester and Coworth Park
Dorchester Collection’s iconic London hotel The Dorchester, and luxury country house hotel and spa in Ascot, Coworth Park, have launched the Winter Wonder experience for those who want to get party ready for the winter festive season. Available at the award winning Dorchester Spa and The Spa at Coworth Park, the indulgent experience includes a manicure, facial, and luxury gift from the spas to take away as a pre-festive treat. The pampering experience begins with a signature manicure, infused with age defying ingredients including vitamins A, B, and C. The manicure will cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate, leaving hands and nails looking visibly smoother with restored strength.
A one hour soothing Aromatherapy Associates facial follows, and helps strengthen the skin’s defence system using the calming blend of two chamomile oils which will also smooth away the effects of daily stress. Two masks are then applied to the skin – a mud mask to re-mineralise the skin, followed by a repairing mask packed full of actives such as cotton thistle and liquorice which restore natural radiance. Skin will be left nourished and restored with a healthy glow. A relaxing scalp, neck, and shoulder massage completes the experience, helping to ensure that guests leave revived and relaxed, ready to take on their busy festive calendar. The Winter Wonder package is available until 24 December 2013 and is priced at £165 per person including VAT.
45 Park Lane
London's 45 Park Lane and UK fitness expert Matt Roberts have partnered to create an in-room workout fitness programme for hotel guests. The in-room fitness TV channel offers guests a selection of professionally led workouts designed and narrated by Roberts, all within the comfort and privacy of the guest room. For those that are feeling inspired, a complimentary 'Exercise Matt at 45 Park Lane Fitness Pack', a step-by-step training technique programme, is available for guests to take home. The workouts are also available online on 45 Park Lane's website, allowing guests to continue the workout even after departure. In addition to Matt Roberts' fitness programme, 45 Park Lane includes complimentary yoga mats within each room and bespoke Brompton bicycles, in the signature purple colour of the property.
Le Meurice
The newly enhanced Spa Valmont at Le Meurice has launched the ‘Pretty Bride’ package, which gives brides-to-be the ultimate beauty regime to enjoy during the lead up to the big day. It offers either three or six months of specialised beauty therapies and relaxation to enjoy alongside the wedding planning. After detailed consideration of the brides’ face and body, which includes a ‘taster’ treatment and nutritional advice, a bespoke beauty programme is created with ‘Body Care’, focusing on exfoliation, body-sculpting, and anti-cellulite treatments; as well as ‘Facial Care’, which purifies and moisturises the skin, whilst smoothing features and brightening the complexion. For the finishing touches, brides will be offered a manicure and make-over on the morning of their wedding.
Having returned from the honeymoon, Spa Valmont by Le Meurice invites the newlyweds to experience the ‘Intimate Champagne Duo’ treatment. This includes a relaxing massage with warm essential oils and two glasses of champagne to toast their wellbeing as they begin their new life together. The ‘Pretty Bride’ package is priced from €260 per week to €6,200 for six months and is subject to availability.
The Dior Institut at Hôtel Plaza Athénée will reopen in June 2014 along with the hotel, which has temporarily closed as it undergoes a partial restoration in order to integrate three additional buildings. Upon reopening, The Dior Institut will reintroduce its signature treatment, the “Dior Prestige Facial Ritual”. This luxurious treatment uses exclusive products, including Prestige Souveraine, and begins with a deep back massage and a gentle full make-up removal. This is followed by an application of Essence Initiale Dior Prestige, a careful exfoliation and a facial massage, smoothing and applying firm pressure from the contour of the ears to the neck and shoulders. A gentle eye contour treatment is also included. The ultimate step is the application of various products, depending on the skin’s requirements, including Dior Prestige Satin Revitalising Nectar and Creme or the Huile and Crème Souveraine. After 75 minutes of exceptional skincare and ultimate relaxation, the face is left more radiant, fresh and serene with the body rejuvenated. (75 minutes/€210)

Le Richemond, Dorchester Collection’s Swiss property, has further developed its relaxation experience by introducing acclaimed French skincare brand Sisley to its spa. With a total of five treatment rooms, including a double room with a private hammam, Switzerland’s first Le Spa by Sisley offers guests renowned face and body treatments based on aromachology: the science of relaxing body and mind through the use of fragrance. Le Spa also includes a treatment room specially designed for Thai massages, which cannot be found anywhere else in Geneva.

The facial "lifting" treatment has an intensive lifting effect, which acts on aging skin to reveal a visibly younger and firmer result. In addition, the Kanebo Facial "Sensai Beauty" is an advanced anti-aging treatment that uses luxury products from the premier line to protect delicate skin from the winter cold. Each treatment lasts one hour and 20 minutes with prices from €135.
The Beverly Hills Hotel and Hotel Bel-Air
The Beverly Hills Hotel and Hotel Bel-Air have introduced the Advanced Marine Biology Facial by La Prairie, which harnesses the most restorative, nutrient-rich plants on earth and incorporates them into a 90-minute anti-ageing facial. Using highly concentrated, anti-oxidant, rich sea-derived ingredients, the facial encapsulates the protective minerals of the ocean using sustainable aquaculture technology. This efficacious treatment uses the most advanced techniques, beginning with a hydromat treatment to ensure comfort and relaxation. A soothing seaweed mask, complete with sea born elements and combined with a cold stone treatment, invigorates skin and improves circulation. Perfect for eco-conscious travellers looking for luxury, the facial is priced at $310.
Both Spas by La Prairie at Hotel Bel-Air and The Beverly Hills Hotel will offer the Diamond Perfection treatment in response to the Awards Season and the centennial promotion Suite 100, for which one of the suites at The Beverly Hills Hotel will be inspired by Marilyn Monroe. In this skin transforming top to toe treatment, Cellular Mineral Body Exfoliator polishes the skin to perfection.
