Spas are no longer just an amenity tucked into the back of a hotel; for a growing number of projects, they’re the main draw. The three projects below range widely in scale, location, and concept. In Mineral Wells, Texas, The Baker Hotel and Spa is being resurrected from its storied past, with plans to revive the property’s famous natural spring spas alongside a full renovation of its guest rooms and public spaces. In Colmar, France, Maison Albar Chasseur Colmar is expanding an existing seven-building complex with a 750-square-meter spa as part of its high-end offering. Meanwhile, in Helsinki, the Royal Arena Sport Hotel takes a different approach entirely, pairing a family-oriented spa hotel with direct access to a sports arena and recreational facilities as part of a larger sports center development.
