A geographic as well as a spiritual retreat from the bustle of the modern city, The Oriental Spa is a short, picturesque boat ride across the Chao Phya River from The Oriental, Bangkok which offers 358 rooms and 35 suites. The century-old traditional teakwood house, filled with native orchids and redolent of the delicate scent of lemon grass, was restored with indigenous elements-teak floors, Thai antiques, soft filtered light, a long lily pond – that evoke a time when writers like Joseph Conrad, Graham Greene, and Somerset Maugham were regular guests of the hotel.
In the spa, the air of meditative calm extends into luxurious treatment suites (equipped with private steam room and shower) where the loudest sound is the rustle of the therapists’ silk uniforms. Many of the treatments draw on ancient Thai techniques and incorporate pure botanicals grown for the spa in the northern hills of Chiang Mai. For example, skin is primed for the signature Oriental Herbal Wrap with an exfoliating scrub made of honey mixed with mint and lavender leaves, flowers, and seeds. Sealed under a thermal wrap, the moisturizing body mask of white Thai mud, camphor, mint, turmeric, and tamarind mingled with sesame oil and fresh milk restores skin while exerting a deliciously rejuvenating effect upon the spirit.Signature treatment: Oriental Herbal Wrap.
