Get ready for take-off! Announcing Forbes Travel Guide's Inaugural Verified Air Travel Awards. 
There’s no need for a locker room at Aman Spa at The Connaught, since guests of the Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star London spa enjoy something infinitely more luxurious: their own private spa suites. Each luxe suite includes a private dressing area, a large wardrobe for hanging clothes, a vanity with all the grooming necessities, and a shower with a steam function to enjoy before, during or after treatments.
The spa’s design style is Asian-inspired; you’ll find earth tones throughout, slatted wooden sliding doors, heated stone floors and white wicker furniture. Be sure to take a dip in the spa’s pool, which resembles a grotto and features a lovely waterfall.

Things to Know
• Because Aman Spa at The Connaught offers each guest his or her own treatment suite with a private dressing area, the Four-Star spa doesn’t have the usual relaxation lounge and locker room you’ve come to expect from most spas.
• While guests with an appointment at Aman Spa at The Connaught are likely to be ushered straight to their treatment suites upon arrival, there’s a comfortable waiting area by the reception desk for those who arrive early.
• You should plan to eat before your visit, as snacks are limited at the London spa. However, you can enjoy water upon request, as well as a tasty cup of lemongrass or ginger tea, served with a sealed jar of honey.

The Treatments
• The London spa takes its cue from the Chinese concept of Qi, using acupressure techniques and essential oils to relieve muscle tension, realign the body’s energy flow and leave guests feeling uplifted after the 2.5-hour Signature Experience.
• Tailored to each guest’s skin and Ayurvedic dosha type, the Aman Signature Facial begins with a 30-minute cleansing footbath before you are invited to lie down in a dimly lit room while a therapist cleanses, exfoliates, tones and moisturizes the face, even adding in a massage for the scalp and shoulders.
• During the Body Envelopment, unrefined Argiletz clays are combined with sage, green tea, sandalwood and lemongrass to envelop the body in a warm, nutrient-rich cocoon, while a therapist provides a scalp massage.
• Beginning with a footbath, the 2.5-hour Jet Lag Reviver includes body brushing, a salt scrub to reduce water retention, a nourishing body mask in tandem with a tailored signature facial, and finally a holistic full-body massage.
