Malaga’s “grande dame” hotel opens botanical spa by Sisley

18 Sep 2017 A new luxury spa has opened at the Gran Hotel Miramar in Malaga, Spain, as part of a €65m (US$78m, £57m) redevelopment of the historic property.

Created in partnership with French product house Sisley, the new spa has a botanical theme and is spread across two floors.

Facilities include six treatment cabins, a VIP treatment suite with ‘champagne service’, a Finnish sauna, Turkish hammam, an ice fountain, indoor spa pools, a sensations shower pool and a relaxation area with hot stone loungers.

Called Botanical Spa by Sisley, the spa’s signature experience is the Happiness Ritual, which is based on the vitalising properties of fruit.

All treatments at the spa – which range from massages and body wraps to facials – are supplied by Sisley.

Gran Hotel Miramar is the oldest grand luxury hotel in the Andalusian city of Malaga and is a member of The Leading Hotels of the World.

A historic landmark building, the 200-bedroom hotel has now fully reopened following a two-year restoration project.

As well as the new Botanical Spa by Sisley, the hotel houses five restaurants and bars – including a rooftop chill out zone – and indoor and outdoor pools.

The opening is part of Sisley’s plans to expand its portfolio of of day and hotel spas.

Earlier this year, the company opened its first-ever day spa in its hometown – the French capital Paris. Located in the heart of Paris’s 8th district, the 4,000sq ft (360sq m) La Maison Sisley has five treatment rooms – including one double treatment room – and a spa lounge.
