The Spa at Ritz-Carlton, Beijing manages to be both tranquil and stately, with hardwood floors, dim lighting and an array of fragrant spices on display. The quiet, circular waiting room seamlessly fuses East and West, with upholstered armchairs topped with silk pillows and embroidered runners placed on top of carved wood tables.

Choose from a number of comprehensive treatments that will leave you scrubbed, rubbed, oiled and stress free at the Four-Star spa. The Ritz Fusion begins with a foot ritual and is followed by a blend of Oriental herbs applied to those handy meridian points to wipe away your tension and make you feel relaxed.
