Located on the downtown hotel’s 8th floor, The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Budapest offers a variety of enticing amenities, including a steam room, sauna, and a unique glass-enclosed pool as well as a 24-hour fitness center. ESPA created a variety of the two-treatment-room spa’s signature services, including the Serenity on the Danube ($149, 1 hour 40 minutes) and The Royal Palace Ritual ($194, 2 hours 10 minutes), which help give the spa a sense of place. “We are dedicated to creating something unique and special in our hotels around the world, and our new spa represents this approach perfectly,” says general manager Nicolas A. Kipper. “It offers a welcoming retreat from the outside world, connected by a total sensory experience. We believe that this combination will make it an attractive spot for all who would like to experience the ultimate spa moment.”
