The Spa at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in New Orleans allows guests to indulge in the local French tradition and style. With a treatment menu inspired in part by French aristocrats' practices, this Spa has all the trimmings you'll need to complete your Euro-experience, from the entryway filled with draped chandeliers to the fountains and friendly staff. The fresh fruit juice and comfy terry-cloth robes and extras including the dry sauna and eucalyptus steam room, will pamper you in style. Whether you opt for a massage, a hydrotherapy soak, or a body treatment, you'll be feeling the true royal treatment in no time.
The Ritz Carlton New Orleans will indulge you with fine linens, marble baths, and Bulgari bath amenities and even your dog will be spoiled here with a pet bed and designer collar, if you bring it.
When not enjoying the luxurious suites, book yourself a Napoleon Royal massage, a spa signature which blends a citrus-scented bath and a lemon verbena-scented Swedish massage, or try a hydrotherapy soak. If you prefer facials, the Masquerade Facial will improve your skin and give you a souvenir to take home, as the thick hardening clay creates a cool mauve-colored mask when removed.
An experience in New Orleans is incomplete without some great food, and the Ritz Carlton will not disappoint you. Choose from the new signature restaurant, Melange, which features New Orleans dishes and jazz in the evenings, or head to the café, a great place to enjoy a light salad or sandwiches to satisfy your eager taste buds without the calories. And drop by the gift shop for some take home aromatherapy in the form of signature magnolia-scented products to remember your Southern spa soiree.
