"Known for its floor-to-ceiling windows and sweeping views of Central Park and the Hudson River, The Spa at Mandarin Oriental draws inspiration from Asian wellness tradition and modernizes it for the 21st-century New Yorker. Located on the 35th floor of the Columbus Circle hotel, the space features a gorgeous vitality pool, an Oriental tea lounge, an amethyst-crystal steam shower, and a custom-built Thai yoga studio. A visit to The Spa at Mandarin Oriental may include a Diamond Cocoon Experience Facial, which uses an innovative prebiotic treatment to strengthen and protect skin, or an Oriental Essence massage, which fuses various traditional movements and therapies to treat the whole body and release tension. Those in search of a total moment of reprieve can even enjoy the Digital Wellness Escape, a restorative head, eyes, neck, shoulders, hands, and feet treatment designed to ease the stress and strain that comes from our digital devices." - Gabby Shacknai
