Spa Profile: The Spa at Base Camp at Kerry Hotel, Hong Kong
Located along Kowloon’s vibrant waterfront in Kerry Hotel, Hong Kong is an urban lifestyle resort that offers extraordinary spaces, spectacular views, and unique dining concepts. Featuring 546 rooms with luxurious amenities and full-size windows that showcase the grandeur of the city, the hotel offers ultimate comfort in understated luxury.
At the heart of the urban hotel is The Spa at Base Camp, which is centered around the theme of ‘Back to Basics’, helping guests escape the fast-paced city environment. Seamlessly integrating rich natural textures of dark woods and stone with breathtaking views from the garden terrace overlooking Victoria Harbour, the spa provides a refined and pronounced treatment menu designed to simplify and satisfy. We spoke with Spa Manager Melanie Yuen, who shared insider tips, special spa bonuses, recommended treatments, and more.
Why You’ll Love It:
The ‘Back to Basics’ concept. The spa menu focuses on a concise list of treatments to hone in on the restorative and relaxing features. The spa keeps with the urban resort concept that can be seen around the hotel—a pocket of calm within the fast-paced city of Hong Kong.
Our customized spa journey that comes with a variety of wellness factors, allowing guests to escape the hectic pace of Hong Kong and relax in the comfort of our spa. For example, the “Look Good, Feel Good” is a 2.5-hour journey featuring a 90-minute massage and 60-minute private personal training session.
Key Features: Guests are invited to use our sauna, steam, and Jacuzzi facilities either before or after their treatments. We also have spacious changing facilities with lockers and showers available for guest use. Refreshments are served after spa treatments with herbal teas and cold drinks. Guests booking any of our journey treatments are also invited to use our outdoor infinity pool during the treatment.
Bonus: Guest can create their own bespoke “aroma sensory” journey by picking their favorite scent from our collection of organic massage oils, making the experience unique to them. Guests can choose to either select a single aroma or blend a bespoke aroma with two different scents.
Insider’s Tip: Guests can always enhance their spa experience here at The Spa at Base Camp, not only with the above mentioned amenities, but also by adding a poolside meal before or after their spa treatment from a wellness menu developed by our Executive Chef Matthew Woolford and his culinary team. We also have a range of day packages available, such as our Urban Retreat Package, which includes access to the outdoor infinity pool, 24-hour gym, and a treatment of their choice at the spa.
Snacks Served: We are serving seasonal drinks and a selection of herbal teas. Our seasonal offering is green tea flavored with natural jasmine flowers. A range of health and wellness snacks are available upon request and at a charge.
Unique Treatment: The Signature Asian Blend Massage is a powerful yet pampering massage that combines different Asian massage techniques: Thai pressure point, Balinese, Malaysian, and Chinese energy flow.
Insider’s Favorite: For me it would be our Blue Diamond Brightening Facial. It’s a very unique facial treatment that offers a special Hungarian-style facial massage to brighten the complexion instantly. The facial uses our exclusive Omorovicza products, which contain gentle, natural, mineral-rich healing waters and essential oils that deliver enriching results to skin.
Featured Products:
For our facial treatments we use Omorovicza, a Hungarian brand powered by a potent blend of the patented Healing Concentrate delivery system and natural minerals, along with vitamins, essential oils, and natural ingredients sourced from around the globe—from the bed of Lake Heviz to the peak of the Andes Mountains.
For our massage treatments we use Zents, an organic range of products from the United States. Zents is a story of healing with products containing restorative powers, providing guests with clean ingredients that are harvested naturally.
