Tucked away in the heart of London's Knightsbridge, the Spa at Mandarin Oriental is as close to heaven as you can get in one of the world’s biggest cities.

One of the most stylish and contemporary spas in the capital, (the style reflects the Oriental style of Mandarin Hotels) treatments here are tailormade in two-hour 'time ritual' packages. The steam room, relaxation room and hydra therapy pool are all a must, and blissfully, you’re likely to find yourself alone in this space because of the way bookings are structured and kept to a minimum. Gentle music, therapeutic lighting and herbal teas blended especially for you – are all the luxuries a weary city dweller or tired shopper could possibly need.

As part of your two hour package you can pick and mix from bespoke facials and detox massages to body wraps and scrubs. The massages in particular are a must-try, trust us –they are not to be beaten in the heart of the city and if you can fit in a visit pre – work ( a blissful start to the day) you’ll be sent on your way with a packed breakfast of green tea and healthy muffins.

Best for: Time poor, cash rich urban girls who deserve a little time out.
