Located in the heart of downtown Seattle, inside the historic Fairmont Olympic Hotel, Penelope & The Beauty Bar is a premier luxury spa. A certified Biologique Recherche Center, the sophisticated spa offers the most advanced skin care and body treatments available, which range from customized European facials and French detox body wraps to cupping and natural nails, and more.

It also has a Jade-Lined Infrared Pod, available exclusively in the Northwest, which helps burn calories, detoxify the body, improve skin, and other health benefits. We chatted with Angela Rosen, owner of Penelope & the Beauty Bar, who gave us the scoop on the spa’s amenities, treatments worth the splurge, and more:

Why You’ll Love It: Guests tend to especially love our sophisticated and peaceful atmosphere, and the wide-range of highly-customizable services that we offer. 

Key Features: We offer luxurious robes and slippers for the ultimate comfort level while receiving services with us. One-on-one consultations with our highly-trained estheticians allow for guests to receive education and information on what products and services are best suited for their skin care needs.

Insider Tip: Add an Infrared Jade Pod onto your next service for the ultimate in total body healing and relaxation! 

Unique Treatment: The Skinny Minnie is unique and very popular, combining our French Detoxifying + Contouring Infrared Body Wrap with our Ion Magnum—which uses nanotechnology and waveforms to increase the body's blood flow, tone, and build muscle. 

Splurge Treatment: The Ultimate Facial and the MBR Liquid Surgery Facial are two of our most splurge-worthy treatments at Penelope & The Beauty Bar. Our Ultimate Facial combines total rejuvenation including a peel and non-surgical facelift, while the MBR Liquid Surgery Facial infuses a revolutionary anti-aging serum into the skin for immediate and visible results. 

• Ultimate Facial: The most intensive and results-oriented facial offered, the ultimate facial is specifically designed for mature, neglected and tired skin. In one session, a combination of a peel application and non-surgical face-lift is used. Immediate results are evident and skin tone, texture, clarity and elasticity are dramatically improved and restored. (110 min) Non-Members: $499; Members: $465

• MBR Liquid Surgery Facial: Indulge your skin with our innovative and non-invasive facial rejuvenation, which combines state-of-the-art technology and medical-grade active ingredients to completely transform the skin without the burden of recovery time or discomfort. Using mbr’s miraculous product, liquid surgery serum, this revolutionary treatment visibly reduces wrinkles, boosts collagen synthesis, replenishes moisture, and leaves skin with a radiant, youthful complexion. Includes micro-current. (110 min) Non-members: $495; Members: $449

Insider’s Favorite: My favorite treatment at the spa is the Penelope Cure, which combines our Infrared Jade Pod with a luxurious 80-minute massage and 75-minute facial for the ultimate spa day treat!
