O Spa crowns one of the top floors of Grand Hyatt Guangzhou complete with phenomenal views of Pearl River New Town to go along with an expansive list of Chinese-inspired spa services that often use local ingredients to soothe aches and calm the spirit. Luxury amenities abound — including a rooftop pool and fitness center — and you can easily while away many hours at this urban retreat.
Our Inspector's Highlights
- Once you step out of the elevator onto the 24th floor, you’ll be greeted by an open, airy reception area with gleaming hardwood floors, a textured stone wall, clean white couches and a scent of fresh citronella in the air.
- A technician will escort you from the lobby area downstairs one level to the treatment rooms, where a stone path leads the way to a sanctuary all your own.
- Interiors take on a Japanese feel, featuring light wood floors and ceilings, slate walls and textured wood paneling.
- Each room offers a chaise lounge where you’ll enjoy a foot bath before your treatment and freshly brewed jojoba tea afterward.
- While there’s everything from facials to massages and nails to scrubs, the best treatments at O Spa are those that celebrate Chinese culture. Look for treatments that incorporate natural ingredients native to the Guangdong region — think black rice, lotus, loganberry, green tea, red ginger and Baiyun Mountain spring water.
Things to Know
- Treatment beds sit atop a peekaboo glass floor filled with pretty red rose petals.
- If you have particular needs or preferences, you can always ask the spa staff to help customized a treatment using Aromatherapy Associates oils.
- If you’d rather run off stress than have it massaged away, you can skip the Guangzhou spa and try out the fitness facilities instead.
The Treatments
- Enjoy an ultimate day of relaxation with treatments featuring local ingredients, like a black rice and red ginger scrub or a ginseng and goji berry wrap.
- The signature Qi body massage aims to rejuvenate the body and calm the mind with a mixture of techniques — starting with a dry massage, followed by bamboo and oil — all while soothing classical Chinese music plays in the background.
- There are a slew of massages to choose from, including a traditional hot stone massage, a deep-tissue treatment or even a refreshing massage aimed to erase jet lag.
The Facilities
- The gym is as classy as they come thanks to hardwood floors and ceilings, Technogym cardio equipment with built-in TVs and a spacious weight lifting area sporting sweeping views of the business district.
- There’s also an 82-foot-long, high-tech swimming pool that plays music underwater.
- Also available for relaxation is a cold plunge pool and hot and steamy whirlpool.
- Arrive early before your spa treatment or linger after a workout to take advantage of the locker rooms, which contain all kinds of water treatment zones like a sauna and rain showers.
