LONDON’S BEST
SPAS
Aman Spa at the Connaught
In the depths of The Connaught Hotel in Mayfair you will
find The Aman Spa at the Connaught, the first Aman Spa to
be built outside the world-famous Aman resorts. With only
five treatment rooms, it’s a place of simplicity, tranquility and
intimacy, where the focus is on you, your body and your mind.
The spa offers a host of specialist complementary therapies
and beauty services along with a subtly-lit ionised pool with
cascading granite water wall. The range of treatments take
inspiration from Chinese, the Americas, Indian and Thai
traditions. Make sure you leave time to enjoy a herbal infusion
while relaxing around the pool after your treatment.

The SPA at the Dorchester
Exuding 1930s Art Deco glamour with a contemporary
edge, The Spa at The Dorchester feels luxurious and opulent
throughout, with nine spacious treatment rooms, a separate
mani-pedi suite and a stylish, sexy relaxation area. Signature
facials are by Carol Joy London, with other treatments by
skincare brand Kerstin Florian and Aromatherapy Associates.
In addition to the long list of specialised treatments, The
Spa at The Dorchester has a unique extra selling point - the
Spatisserie, where you can relax with some cake and a glass of
Champagne, continuing with the ethos that ‘a little bit of what
you love is good for you’.
