SPA PROFILE 35
PARIS TO MARRAKECH Located at the opulent Shangri-La Hotel Toronto, one of the group’s newest North American properties, the Miraj Hammam Spa by Caudalie Paris is just the ticket for Asian travellers looking to escape the city’s chilly winter evenings. Infusing traditional Middle Eastern hammam and gommage treatments with state-of-the-art technology and refined interiors that take their cues from Paris, Marrakech, and Istanbul, the spa’s roots are in Bordeaux’s first Vinothérapie Spa, and incorporates many of the signature treatments – from a crushed cabernet scrub to a honey and wine body wrap – that made Caudalie Paris a byword for indulgent wellness. After a long day scouring the city’s café scene, treat yourself to the 90-minute Voyage to Marrakech, which includes both hammam and gommage sessions, as well as a 30-minute personalised massage, and a Miraj Orientale manicure, or for something quick and effective, the 45-minute Hammam, Gommage & Rhassoul Clay Body Masque de-stresses with high and low intensity steam, invigorates with eucalyptus-infused black Moroccan soap, and stimulates with rich mineral clay. www.shangri-la.com
