The property is also home to Waldorf Astoria Spa Atlanta Buckhead, an upscale spa that recently introduced an enhanced experience with new signature wellness treatments and product partnerships as part of an extensive property-wide renovation project. It is set over two levels and has 13 luxuriously-appointed private treatment rooms including a Couples Suite, dry saunas, steam rooms, relaxation lounges, a 60-foot saline lap pool, and a 24-hour fitness center. The spa offers world-renowned face, body, and nail treatments, providing guests with the time and space necessary to tend to their well-being and emerge feeling rejuvenated.

Inspired by the lush, green canopy that embraces the city, Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead brings a “City Within the Forest” concept into the experience at the Waldorf Astoria Spa. Announced in August 2022, the new menu of treatments invites guests to cultivate a deeper connection to their surroundings and themselves, encouraging them to travel in the present moment and live life to the fullest.

Alongside the new newly-enhanced concept, Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead has announced new partnerships with several of the spa industry’s leading luxury brands, including ZENTS by ANTARA, in addition to showcasing treatments by Biologique Recherche, KNESKO, and others.

Insider’s Tip: Book the new ZENTS Elemental Scrub that taps into three distinct sensory experiences—Sun, Water or Earth. This full-body polish exfoliates your skin using a mixture of fine sea salt and sugar. An application of intensely hydrating butter nourishes and leaves guests silky smooth.

Unique Treatment: The Forest Therapy Experience, which utilizes a unique essential oil blend by spa partner Aromatherapy Associates of evergreen, pink pepper, cypress and juniper to provide a tension-releasing massage, followed by a warm, grounding mud mask to recharge through hands and feet and a luxurious scalp massage.

There is also the new, unique Enchanted Sleep Treatment, designed to realign guests’ circadian rhythms and encourage deep, peaceful sleep. It begins with an inhalation ritual to increase oxygenation, followed by a light massage with herbal sleep remedies including Vetiver, sandalwood and chamomile.

As part of Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead’s commitment to giving back and preserving the environment and Hilton’s Travel with Purpose corporate responsibility strategy and 2030 environmental goals, a concentrated effort to eliminate plastic throughout the spa is apparent with a focus on eco-luxury sustainable brands with fair trade and ethical practices that we are proud to partner with, such as Pevonia’s Clean Water initiative or Zents’ zero-plastic packaging.

Splurge Treatment: The the new Illuminating Diamond Bath treatment, featuring a sparkling diamond Knesko face mask and bioluminescent bath bombs, that guests can uniquely enjoy at the spa or in the comfort of their own rooms.
