Alexandria, Egypt - 06 March 2008: The recently opened Spa and Wellness Centre at Four Seasons Hotel Alexandria, San Stefano has already impressed guests with its luxurious surroundings and superb treatments and facilities. In recognition of its excellence, Business Traveller magazine named the centre 'Best Hotel Spa for Classic Massages' in the Middle East.

Catching the editor's eye were tried and tested rituals such as the Cleopatra treatment, with an indulgent milk and honey bath, and the Pharaonic massage with a chamomile and mint poultice once used only by the pharaohs.

The 30,000 square foot centre is located on the fourth and fifth floors of the sophisticated Hotel, boasting separate male and female spa areas including lockers, showers, toilets, changing room, sauna, steam room, Jacuzzi, cool plunge, relaxation lounge, ladies-only gym, mixed gym, kinesis studio, one squash court and two spa suites for couple's treatments.

Skincare products made by Daniel Steiner in Switzerland and Italy are available to visitors who indulge in the spa's relaxing treatments. The European product line is based upon a unique combination of high quality, natural ingredients that give long-lasting and effective results.

The spa menu combines a selection of treatments designed to provide its guests with the ultimate relaxation, rejuvenation and reflection of mind, body and spirit. Its signature treatment, 1,001 Nights Sensation, is an oriental spa fairy tale for one or two people. Silky skin starts from the honey, almond and sesame seed peeling, followed by the heavenly fragrant salt bath with the essences of vanilla, orange and cinnamon giving both purifying and relaxing benefits. This sensational treatment concludes with an 80-minute massage with oils from 1,001 Nights to leave skin with a radiant glow.
