If you indulge in just one Hong Kong spa treatment, have it here. Designed as a journey from the outer into the inner world, the experience begins on the check-in and fitness floor. You're taken up to the next level and offered a welcome tea, then guided deeper into this haven, where treatments are administered by excellent therapists in serene rooms. Try the signature Time Ritual, a holistic combination of therapies adapted to your specific needs on the day. Treatments here get you access to the vitality pool, the amethyst-crystal steam room, the authentic Turkish hammam, and more. Next door to the Oriental Spa, the legendary Mandarin Beauty Salon and Barber Shop (Mandarin Oriental, 5 Connaught Rd. Central) offers traditional favorites. Ask for a famous Shanghainese pedicure with Samuel and his knives (yes, knives!), or see Betty for eyebrow threading.
