How to have a self-care vacation in Atlanta
Everything you need for a rejuvenating escape
Some people may snicker at the thought of “self-care” and think it’s frivolous, but it is a vital component as part of a broader healthy lifestyle.
At Loews Atlanta Hotel, we make it easy for locals and jet-lagged travelers to take a minute to check-out of their daily hustle and check-in to a relaxing oasis. Here are six elements of our hotel that make it a self-care sanctuary:
Need to see and feel the sunshine? All 414 rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows. On a sunny day, open the black-out curtains to let the sunshine and its vitamin D pour in.
Bath kit: With the help of our friends from Exhale, we’ve developed a curated bath kit with essential oils and aromatic soaps to be enjoyed at leisure in any of our rooms, as each one is equipped with a soaking bathtub in addition to a separate glass-enclosed shower.
Exhale Fitness: Guests of the hotel have complimentary access to Exhale’s 7,886 square-foot fitness center, which includes a collection of brand new equipment – treadmills, weights, Peloton bikes, and just launched a partnership with NYC’s popular Studio 16. Additionally, guests are welcome to attend group fitness classes like HITT Cardio, Barre and Yoga.
Exhale Spa: Relaxation comes in many forms, but time during a massage ranks high on the list. Award-winning massage therapists are experts at a variety of techniques to ease muscle tension and create a sense of calm. The treatment menu features unique offerings of customized facials, massages, body scrubs, reiki, and waxing. Exhale recently debuted two new spa treatments including the CBD Ritual Massage and the Secret Facial, which leverages the power rose stem cells, peach leaf extract, and precious porcelain flower delivered in an 8-step ritual featuring an exclusive facial toning massage along with a cooling porcelain spoon massage.
Harvest at Saltwood Restaurant: Regarded as “... Midtown’s Best Kept Lunch Secret” by Atlanta Magazine in 2018, Harvest, the customizable salad experience is available every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for lunch from 11:30 p.m. to 2 p.m. Guests have the option of more than 80 ingredients, including three freshly grilled proteins of poultry, beef and fish, leafy greens, fruits and vegetables, seeds and grains, locally-sourced oils, vinegars and cheeses, house-made dressings, and a variety of salts and spices. No matter the size or weight of your personal salad, it’s always $18 and includes a beverage and dessert made by our pastry chef.
Located two blocks away from Piedmont Park: Atlanta’s open-air greenspace is ideal for walking, jogging, running, pick-up games, picnics and much more. All guests are provided with a link to our curated running/walking map.
For those looking for an immersive self-care getaway, pair your spa trip with an overnight stay at Loews Atlanta Hotel. When booking the Atlanta Spa Escape, guests receive a $150 daily spa credit, one special welcome amenity in your room, and complimentary overnight valet parking.
