Jakarta, Indonesia: 5 best hotel spas

Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta

Located on the busy road of Gatot Subroto, Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta serves as a sanctuary for the weary thanks to its cloistered venue, away from the hustle and bustle of the metropolitan. Located on the fifth floor, The Spa offers a variety of soothing and organic massages, such as hot poultice massage, Balinese massage, and the sports massage. It also offers the traditional Lulur massage, which is based on ancient Javanese beauty rituals that utilise special herbs like white turmeric, lemongrass, and cloves.

Upping its ante on the wellness scene, Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta also provides eight treatment rooms: two hammam (حمّام; a Turkish bath) and two couple’s suites along with “vitality loungers” to be used before and after your spa session. Guests can also opt for other pampering treatments: haircuts, waxing, and facial treatments, in which the latter uses French luxury brand Biologique Recherche’s hero product Masque VIP O2.
