When one thinks of the epitome of luxury, Dior inevitably springs to mind. Now, with the grand unveiling of their comprehensively refurbished spa at Hôtel Plaza Athénée in Paris, the brand has once again proven its prowess in redefining sophistication and well-being.
This majestic retreat, strategically nestled across the iconic Avenue Montaigne from Dior’s ancestral showroom and workshops, has been a significant part of the hotel since 2008. The latest iteration underlines Dior’s commitment to holistic wellness, presenting a tranquil 43,055-square-foot haven.
Staying true to the structural DNA of Plaza Athénée and marrying it with Dior’s quintessential design, the interiors are a testament to attention-to-detail. The harmonious marriage of toile de Jouy drapes and an eclectic mix of stone and wood conjures an aura of serene elegance. A notable addition, and indeed a feather in the cap for Parisian luxury hotels, is the light therapy suite. This innovation, the brainchild of a collaboration with Lucibel, aims to realign one’s internal clock using the “Cronos Light”, mimicking nature’s luminosity.
Walking in, the allure of a reception alongside a boutique tempts with Dior’s exclusive fragrances and top-tier spa products. The spa’s infrastructure is nothing short of opulent, from the individual treatment chambers to the double suite, the sauna, and the steam chamber. With treatments promising anywhere from a quick detox to an intensive stress bust, the price spectrum caters to varied indulgences. Noteworthy is the Waves 21 device, championing metameric stimulation, and the groundbreaking Dior Soin powered by Hydrafacial.
Completing the experience, Le Grand Salon invites patrons to unwind with vegetable beverages, herbal concoctions, and dietary enhancers, all while basking in the presence of select Dior artifacts. Dior’s Spa at Hôtel Plaza Athénée isn’t just a luxurious retreat – it’s the gold standard in fashion-forward wellness.
