Stand on the lawns ofthe Ritz-Carlton Huntington Hotel & Spa, and you’ll feel the presence of our most celebrated early 20th century writers, entertainers, political leaders and royalty. Opened in 1907 as the Hotel Wentworth and reopened in 1914 as the Huntington Hotel, the aristocratic posture of this landmark is at once intimidating and intriguing; walk through the doors to the hospitable alacrity of today’s Ritz-Carlton staff, and you’ll find soothing comfort in its most urbane form. Step across the way where a renovated historic carriage house holds the spa, and the salubrious benefits of an exemplary amenity spa will soon be yours.
In the fitness center, cardiovascular equipment includes the anticipated state-of the art lineup, and goes one step further with virtual reality steppers and recumbent bikes. Steam, sauna, and whirlpool will ready you for the juices and fruits of the pre-treatment room where a soothing polyphony of gurgling waters and gentle breezes pipe in to relax the endorphin flow. Any number of the numerous body treatments and massage therapies are there for your week ahead, but today it’s a spirulina body wrap. Brought in from a salt lake in Southern California, the algae used in is treatment is both nourishing and detoxifying. Evening T’ai Chi in the Japanese gardens adds to the food for your soul. In all, the Ritz-Huntington Hotel and Spa is a fine epitome for today’s amenity spa experience.
