Steigenberger Frankfurter Hof reveals new spa and wellness area
BY Aoife Dowling
Steigenberger Frankfurter Hof has launched its new day spa and wellness facility - The Spa - featuring a care programme specifically aimed at male guests.
Spanning 1,000sq m (10,764sq ft), The Spa is operated by Bangkok-based spa consultancy and management company GOCO Hospitality.
It provides a combination of health, beauty and care treatments as well as high-end beauty sessions.
The Spa features a traditional men's barber shop, and further highlights include an unusually designed hammam, an extensive sauna area and a private spa suite which is the first of its kind in Frankfurt.
The facility will be available both to guests and to visitors who are not resident at the hotel.
The spa will use premium products supplied by leading European manufacturers such as Amala and MBR and will pamper its male guests with grooming products from Hommage.
The "Hommage Gentlemen's Barber" offers luxury services aimed specifically at the modern man. Guests can avail of a shave, haircut or facial treatment. An elegant VIP Barber's Cabin is available for exclusive services such as facials.
The 1920's concept of the sophisticated barber's shop has been adapted and given a contemporary twist. Dark woods and leather combine to create a classy
impression. The Hommage Gentlemen's Barber also features two flat screens, enabling customer to keep up-to-date with the latest news and events. Shaves are performed using the "Hommage" range of branded spa products.
The private spa-suite aims to provide a novel opportunity for regeneration and relaxation by acting as a "spa in spa" offering the full range of services available at the facility.
Guests can avail of the steamroom and vitality pool as well as a range of beauty treatments and massages, while guaranteeing a high degree of privacy and individuality.
A lounge and a separate treatment room with a double bench ensure a discreet atmosphere, and a spa concierge will also be on hand to provide detailed advice on drawing up personal treatment plans.
The "hammam ritual" will also form a major highlight at The Spa and will include both traditional massages and body peelings in the Scrub Room. Guests will also be able to enjoy a Finnish sauna, a herbal sauna, an ice fountain and hydro-massage showers.
GOCO Hospitality was commissioned by Steigenberger Hotels AG to draw up initial plans, following which the interior design concept was developed further and brought to final fruition by Cologne-based Peter Silling & Associates.
The décor at The Spa reflects a timeless elegance in its combination of warm shades of cream and brown and dark-coloured high-quality woods. Whereas clear and calm lines predominate in the relaxation rooms, the private spa suite and the sauna area, the ornamental mosaics in the hammam conjure up an oriental atmosphere.
