Spa Caudalie at Le Meurice Hotel, Paris: Pampering Parisienne Style

Pampering

Spa Caudalie at Le Meurice Hotel, Paris: Pampering Parisienne Style Where better to indulge in a day of ultimate spa luxury and body primping than in the home of the beauty industry -- Paris. No pampering day trip to the French capital would be complete without a visit to one of its many beauty treatment centers. A day at a Parisienne spa offers guests the opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of Paris’ chaotic cobblestone streets for a few hours of total serenity.

The elegant Spa Caudalie at the 200-year-old Le Meurice Hotel in the first arrondissement is considered one of the city’s finest. After taking a short taxi ride from the centrally located Gare du Nord, you begin with a soak in a private marble bath filled with aromatherapy herbs and oils, rejuvenate your skin with their specialized remedies or treat your body to a total overhaul. Highly trained staff from Les Sources de Caudalie in Bordeaux perform treatments using Vinothérapie -- exclusive products made from crushed grape-seed extract, rich in skin-protecting antioxidants and polyphenols.

Morning
Start your morning with their signature 'Crushed Cabernet' body scrub and experience wine in a totally new way. Follow with a 'Pulp Friction' grape-infused massage that will leave you in a dreamlike intoxicated state.

Afternoon
Skip lunch but take a break for afternoon tea, at Le Jardin d’Hiver Restaurant in the hotel and be dazzled by the light streaming in through the stunning Art Nouveau glass roof above you. Choose from finger sandwiches, traditional scones with clotted cream, French pâtisseries and a selection of teas, hot chocolates and coffees. Round out your afternoon with an Anti-ageing Polyphenols Facial Treatment and discover why French women look sensational at any age. And for the gentleman who thinks that spas are a woman’s domain, Spa Caudalie caters to men’s specific skin and body needs.

Optional Evening
If you don’t want your pampering day to end at sunset, check in to the nearby Hôtel des Tuileries, an intimate, small 3-star hotel that’s almost as cozy as a massage.
