THE BULGARI SPA

First and foremost, the Bulgari brand is known for its jewellery. Over the years, a number of collections and patterns have gradually become symbols of the Bulgari style, an elegant touch that we find again in the heart of the Bulgari Paris Spa, truly one of its kind.

an oasis of well-being in the centre of Paris

For anyone staying at the Bulgari Hotel Paris, the awe-inspiring range of treatments offered by its eponymous spa is an absolute must. Let’s take a visit to this 1,300-square-metre temple of well-being.

Ode to Rome

In a nod to the Italian jeweller’s Roman roots, the Spa of the Bulgari Hotel Paris is essential to the Bulgari experience. It’s the perfect place to enjoy treatment worthy of his name in total privacy and comfort. As soon as you cross the doorway, your eyes will be drawn to the nine cosy, wellequipped treatment rooms clad in Vicenza stone. Our favourite spot was the 65-square-metre Spa Suite, directly inspired by the Pantheon dome in Rome, a fitting reference to the glories of that ancient civilisation. Designed to offer total comfort, it has two treatment tables and a private hammam and jacuzzi ensconced in green onyx. You can also enjoy highly personalised treatment here guaranteed to satisfy all your desires.

A pool nestling in the midst of mosaics and white marble

The Bulgari Spa is equipped with a 25-metre swimming pool decorated in antique style that recalls the magnificence of erstwhile Roman baths. The entrance is punctuated by sublime frosted glass columns that spread soothing light conducive to relaxation. Next to this pool is another basin called the Vitality Pool. Fully decked with mosaics, the Vitality Pool recalls the Roman baths of Caracalla which inspired Bulgari’s “Divas’ Dream” jewellery collection. The pool has been designed to offer maximum relaxation, with comfortable seating and different degrees of pressure emanating from massaging water and air jets. To supplement this water complex, a hammam in Aphyon white marble from Antalya decorated with gold and green mosaics is also at your disposal, as well as a ice fountain. Designed to leverage the interplay between hot and cold, it is carved into an impressive monolith of black granite. The Spa also boasts a 120-square-metre fitness area including a private studio run by Workshop Gymnasium, which offers an unparalleled experience for both mind and body based on metabolic examination, a study of your bodily movements and an analysis of your body mass. A must.

State-of-the-art treatment

The Bulgari Spa also offers a premium range of facial and body treatment administered in one of the Spa’s cabanas or suites. Our personal choice goes to the Augustinus Bader treatment, which offers cutting-edge methods combined with TFC8® technology designed to hydrate, nurture and stimulate the renewal of your skin.
