At the start of a new year, people everywhere seem to be making promises of losing weight and getting more in shape. And in Los Angeles, the end holiday season also marks the start of award season. Suddenly, there is urgency for green juice and glow-inducing body scrubs. In anticipation, The Ritz-Carlton, Los Angeles brought back its ultra-luxe Red Carpet-Ready package for those needing a full-body refresher.
As a shining landmark, The Ritz-Carlton stands tall in the city’s skyline and boasts downtown LA’s only full-service spa on the 26th floor. Within the spa’s chic 8,000-square-foot setting, hotel guests and locals alike can enjoy a plush co-ed lounge, full-service Oribe salon and sparkling views of the city’s vibrant center. The 230-minute red carpet package is $495 and includes a complimentary glass of Champagne, a sugar body scrub and a 24-karat gold and Champagne-infused cream.
Celebrating award season and its five-year anniversary, the spa is also introducing a line of Old Hollywood Glamour-inspired treatments. Grace Kelly’s Mogambo Retreat (80 minutes, $250) transports guests to Africa with a skin treatment using traditional African remedies, namely marula oil. Some Like It Hot Stone Massage (75 minutes, $215) is a playful ode to Marilyn, while the Tiffany Blue Mani-Pedi (manicure, $45; pedicure, $65) captures Audrey’s iconic style with a modern twist. No matter which therapy you choose, a day spent at The Ritz-Carlton, Los Angeles’ sophisticated sanctuary will leave you feeling just as pampered as a celebrity.
