Conde Nast Traveler named Bliss Spa in New York’s Soho area as the best urban day spa – and with good reason.

Recent renovations make Bliss’s renowned flagship spa more luxurious than ever. The updated Bliss includes brand new steam baths, saunas and Vichy showers, which allow visitors to shower at changing temperatures to enhance circulation. A new reception, swanky shop, and a revised spa menu complete the new and improved Bliss. The spa remains true to founder Marcia Kilgore’s vision of what a spa should be when she opened Bliss in the mid-90s, and continues to provide a wide variety of beauty offerings with laugh-line-inducing names. Two favorites: An anti-aging skin program named “The Youth as we know it”, and the men’s cleansing ritual known as “Homme Improvement”.
