Featuring impressive 19th-century architecture and unmatched views of the Eiffel Tower and other famous monuments, Shangri-La Hotel, Paris is one of the city’s premier luxury hotels. It is also home to CHI, The Spa—a wellness oasis located in what were originally the stables of Prince Roland Bonaparte’s hotel particulier.

The Best Spas in Paris for a Chic Day of Pampering

The spa, which draws inspiration from the origins of the Shangri-La Legend—a place of personal peace, enchantment, and well-being—includes a Health Club with fitness facilities, a pool with an outdoor terrace, as well as a beauty treatment center. We talked to Elodie Dargier, Shangri-La Hotel Paris’ Spa Manager, who shared the spa’s amenities, recommended treatments, insider tips, and more:

Why You’ll Love It: Our guests particularly enjoy the privacy of the space, its tranquility, and its tailor-made treatments.

Key Features: Our pool which measures 17 x 6 meters is heated to 30°C, and CHI, The Spa also includes an outdoor terrace. We welcome hotel guests, local Parisian clients, and members of the CHI Spa Club.

Snacks Served: We serve chic and organic 100% made in France herbal teas by Chic Des Plantes—a signature herbal tea that has been created for CHI, The Spa. We also offer our guests seasonally flavored water, fresh fruit, dried fruit, as well as pastries made by our pastry chef.

Bonus: We have an outdoor terrace for sunbathing or relaxing, and guests can have lunch or a snack at the spa, by the pool, or on the terrace.

Insider’s Tip: To increase the benefits of your treatment and to encourage “letting go,” always begin the spa experience with a hammam session for 15-20 minutes before your service.

Unique Treatment: The Ultimate Well-Being Ceremony is very popular with our Parisian and urban guests. It’s an urban detox and sensory awakening that features 90 minutes of treatments, a healthy breakfast or lunch in our restaurant La Bauhinia, as well as free access to all of our facilities.

Splurge Treatment: The Rose Diamond Lifting Facial. The treatment starts with a relaxation of the back to release all tensions linked to stress of everyday life, then an 80-minute facial treatment that incorporates diamond powder and organic hyaluronic acid. Step by step, the skin is oxygenated, relaxed, plump and luminous, and the features are smoothed.

Insider’s Favorite: The Thai massage offers an original and ancestral approach to massage: guests lie on a futon in a comfortable outfit, while the therapist applies a series of pressure and stretching without oil. The body and mind are relaxed and energized, the body gains flexibility, and the feeling is very surprising.

Featured Products: We work with The Organic Pharmacy for face and body care, and Kure Bazaar for nails.
