Services
The Spa at Mandarin Oriental has eight treatment rooms, in addition to a fitness center and heat and water facilities comprising a sanarium, amethyst crystal steam room, and vitality pool. Bamboo fixtures give a nod to the spa's Asian origins, and Zimbabwean granite enhances its minimalist interiors.
Guests can book specific treatments at the spa or blocks of time--the signature Time Rituals(tm) begin with a welcome foot massage, followed by the course of treatment best suited to the guest's individual needs. The spa menu includes a range of facials, manicure/pedicures, massage services, body wraps and scrubs, and waxing. Traditional Chinese medicine consultations are available upon request. Before or after treatments, guests can unwind in the Zen color therapy relaxation lounge.
Mandarin Oriental Signature Spa Therapies: Mandarin Oriental's signature spa therapies have been devised to address guests' increasing desire for simple, effective and authentic spa experiences. Developed in consultation with specialists in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and master aromatherapists, each signature therapy consists of a relaxing, hands-on body massage ritual that combines the powerful effects of oriental meridian massage with the therapeutic benefits of custom-blended essential oils, created uniquely for Mandarin Oriental. Each treatment begins with a private therapist consultation in order to determine each individual's personal and current state of wellbeing. The treatment and oils are then tailored to each guest in order to leave the body, mind and spirit in perfect harmony. Guests are also provided with nutritional and exercise guidance, in order to extend the beneficial effects of the programme at home.

I am a spa junkie and have to say after just one visit to the MO Hyde Park for an aromatherapy massage I am hooked. The staff, the therapist and the facilities are top notch. You definitely get what you pay for.

I was lucky enough to visit the spa for a tour of the facilities and wow was I impressed! The hotel is in a great Location right in the heart of Knightsbridge (perfect for shopping!). The relaxing music, the aromas of the oils and atmospheric lighting in the spa instantly made me feel calm and tranquil- just what you expect from a spa experience! The treatments on offer all looked amazing with the signature treatment tailored to the client's requirements, I can't wait to go back and try some treatments.

Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London, has 198 guest accommodations, 25 of them suites, decorated with antique paraphernalia and sumptuous fabrics and offering city, park, or courtyard views. All rooms are accessorized with in-room safes, minibars, and individual climate control; high-tech fixtures include high-speed and wireless Internet access, two telephone lines, and CD players. The most luxurious accommodations include the Sovereign Suite, which features a four-poster bed, Victorian bath, and French-style windows, and the Royal Suite, with a spacious terrace overlooking Hyde Park.
Guests can enjoy fine dining at the Michelin star-awarded Foliage, a sophisticated gourmet restaurant decorated with leather-upholstered seating, rosewood paneling, and rich fabrics. With a design concept of "bringing the park into the restaurant," the restaurant's interiors include 24,000 white silk leaves and picturesque views of Royal Park. The Park offers a more casual atmosphere, where guests can sample international and vegetarian options, including Asian-influenced entrées such as sashimi, crispy Peking duck, and Hainan chicken. Seasonal offerings include the Park Terrace, an open-air, country garden-inspired eatery overlooking Hyde Park. The Mandarin Bar, styled in touches of leather, mohair, marble, and glass, is a trendy cocktail spot.
In 2010, Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park will unveil two new fantastic dining experiences. The first will be by Lyon born chef Daniel Boulud and will feature brasserie style cuisine and a wide range of wines by the glass, and the second will mark the arrival in London of Heston Blumenthal, one of UK's most renowned chefs of the renowned Fat Duck Group.
