Harnn Heritage Spa
If the shopping hordes of the ever-crowded CentralWorld mall get you down, slip away to the 12th floor where this tranquil spa awaits. Harnn evokes an old-school, Chinese medicine house vibe thanks to decor that’s all soft greens and ornate lacquerware. Treatments are derived from ancient Asian healing principles and feature completely natural products, meaning you get all the benefits of botanical ingredients. For full-body rejuvenation, try the signature Sukhothai massage, which starts with a relaxing herbal tea bath before a body scrub, foot massage, aromatic massage and a facial (THB4,800 for 160 minutes). Now, that’s living! Turn back the clock with the Nana infusion herbal steam which uses aromatic Asian herbs to help remove toxins through sweat, resulting in younger looking skin (THB900 for 60 minutes).
