The building that houses the relatively
new Westin Hotel located in the heart
of the financial district is part office
block (for most of the first 31 floors)
and part hotel (from the 32nd floor up).
This means the lobby is, unusually,
located on the 32nd floor, and to reach
the Heavenly Spa you’ll need to take a
second lift to the 35th floor – also where
the hotel’s outdoor infinity pool and gym
can be found.
The Heavenly Massage follows the
Swedish technique, and uses a heated
compress on the back to relax the
muscles before the massage itself. The
treatment rooms here are surprisingly
large – bigger than some standard hotel
bedrooms. Aside from the treatment
room itself there’s a separate and large
bathroom, including a shower, toilet and
double sink, aswell as awardrobe to store
belongings. Before the treatment, you
can choose a body butter from a range
of scents including jasmine and vanilla;
there’s also a choice of stones bearing
words such as “love” and “gratitude”,
one of which is then placed under the
massage table for “good vibes”. Before
you lie on the table, though, the treatment
begins with a foot wash.
The spa’s relaxation area, which you
can use pre- and post-massage, has
a number of large chairs screened off
from one another for privacy, as well
as The Westin’s super-foods menu
offering dried fruit, walnuts and ginger
tea. Unusually, it’s the changing rooms
that have the real wow factor, with
floor-to-ceiling windows and views
over the CBD and the marina. This is
also where the steam bath, experience
shower and vitality pool are located,
again with panoramic city views. Guests
are advised to lower the blinds before
changing.
Gastro bar Cook & Brew, on the 33rd
level, serves food and drinks and has
an open terrace. You can also grab a
drink at the Lobby Lounge on the floor
below. We suggest you put aside some
time before or after a treatment to take
advantage of these hotel facilities.
KEY BENEFITS:
• The treatment truly relaxes the
muscles and relieves pent-up tension
• The panoramic city views from the
spa are incomparable
The Heavenly Massage costs $220 for
the 90-minute treatment. Heavenly Spa
