Weekend Getaways

It is quite a daunting task to name the top 10 hotels in America, simply because America is huge and has so many cities and towns. To start with, the favourite city amongst tourists would be New York, and the area would have to be Manhattan. The two top hotels over here with five star ratings are the Hotel Intercontinental the Barclay Hotel. The hotel is conveniently located, and is housed in a building that dates back to 1926. The hotel offers all the amenities of luxurious accommodation and is also situated conveniently close to all the famous New York districts and places to visit. Also housed in a building that dates back to 1926, and which has always been popular with discerning travellers, is the Hotel Omni Berkshire Place. The hotel is close to the Rockefeller Center, Broadway and Fifth Avenue, and offers all the convenience that is expected from a top rated hotel.

  

Moving down south to Washington, the Crowne Plaza the Hamilton CP is conveniently located in Washington DC, is popular with visiting dignitaries, and is just four blocks away from the White House. The Hotel Hyatt Regency is located close to Reagan Airport, and is ideally suited to the frequent traveller. Both hotels offer five star accommodation and the facilities of highly rated hotels.

Located in the heart of South Beach, Miami, is Hotel Delano, which is by far the best place for staying in when visiting Miami. The hotel has been designed by a famous French architect, and is a member of the Morgan group of hotels. The other top hotel in Miami is the hotel The Palm Beach South, which is located on the tranquil side of Miami and is an ideal spot to stay in when vacationing there. Hotel The Shore Club is another superb hotel in Miami, designed by a famous British architect and with beautiful landscaping surrounding the hotel.

Moving to the west coast of America to San Francisco, the two top hotels in this famous city would easily be the Hotel Clift and the Intercontinental. The Hotel Clift offers old style glamour elegantly mixed with modern day luxurious accommodation. The Intercontinental offers the luxury expected from this famous chain, and is conveniently located downtown.

Moving on to Los Angeles, the hotel Sofitel can best be described as style at its finest. It has been renovated recently and is a superb hotel to stay in when visiting LA. Another great hotel in LA is the Luxe Hotel on the famous Sunset Boulevard. The hotel is surrounded with lush gardens that give a touch of serenity and seclusion to this great hotel.

Any visit to America would call for a stop in Las Vegas, and the best place to stay in this haven in the desert would be the Hotel Nights at Vegas at Trump LV. The hotel offers five star apartment accommodation right on the famous Las Vegas Strip.

There are so many cities in America, and finding top quality accommodation is not an issue as some of the best chains of hotels are located in all the major cities of America.

Pregnancy can be one of the most fulfilling times in a woman’s life. The joy of bringing another human being into the world creates a tremendous feeling of contentment and anticipation, but it is also a time of great physical and emotional upheaval. So the Spa at Chiva-Som has designed a range of new treatments to help pre and postnatal guests enjoy a secure and tranquil experience.

Together with exercise, good diet and rest, these treatments can play an important role in helping you cope with the stresses of nine months of pregnancy and postnatal recovery.

The Pre and Post Natal Body Treatment combines soothing massage with the therapeutic benefits of E’SPA products, and has been carefully designed to improve the tonicity of the skin. It’s performed on a bed designed for comfort and safety during pregnancy.

After deep skin cleansing and a gentle body polish, you will have a luxurious body massage with E’SPA’s specially developed Nourishing Body Oil. Some essential oils such as basil and marjoram should be avoided during pregnancy, so the silky Nourishing Body Oil is based on Jojoba, blended with Calendula, Grape Seed and Sweet Almond Oil.

We then envelop your body in warm Marine Mud to nourish the skin, and end with a deep acupressure point scalp massage.

The Spa at Chiva-Som offers many other treatments for pregnant and nursing mothers. These include Floatation, which induces a deep state of mental relaxation and helps to eliminate stress and tension.

With Oriental Foot Massage you recline in the Chiva-Som Music Therapy chairs as the therapist works reflex points in the feet and ankles to balance the entire body, stimulate the circulatory system and alleviate muscle tension.

For ultimate pampering, try the Bath Of Chiva, performed in the candlelit luxury of your own room as tension is soaked away in a hydrating milk bath with rose petals and chamomile flowers.

Please ask at reception for more details of all these treatments.
