European Day Spa Vacations
A European day spa is a relaxing respite from a city vacation in London, Stockholm, or Istanbul. You may not need a full week just to unwind - an afternoon at a beauty day spa can be just the ticket to relax! The European day spa in London or Rome, for example, may be trendy, "cool" and ultra sophisticated, often catering to business travelers. Your leisure vacation in a European city can also include an afternoon at a spa - what better way to unwind after a day of sightseeing! • Alta Care Laboratories, on the Piazza di Spagna in Rome, is a beauty day spa specializing in skin care. They also offer hot stone massage, couples massage in a private room with a fireplace, and a candle oil body massage. The spa is atop a 5-story building with lovely views of the Spanish steps, and has a spa garden.• Elemis Day Spa, near the West End, is the perfect place to escape the crowds - or relax before an evening show - in London.It's not easy to find in the winding streets, but it's well worth the effort. Spa treatments are Asian-inspired with Balinese, Moroccan, and Thai themed treatment suites. Quiet, calm, and sensual, this is an oasis of tranquility in the heart of the city. • Stockholm Day Spa, is a sleek, modern facility located on the top floor of Sweden's largest department store.The spa offersfacials, massages, and beauty treatments, and, of course, a sauna (this is Scandinavia!).
