Linked by a shared history since 1946, the two prestigious houses share the same vision of luxury. In 2008, Dior chose this prestigious address to open its first Spa: a 400 m² space, designed as an ultra-private haven of well-being.
More than a spa, it is a holistic refuge , also focused on high-tech treatments to reconnect with the perfect balance between body and mind.
An exceptional setting in the heart of a Parisian palace
With a sauna, a hammam, five single cabins, one double cabin and a beauty room, the Dior Spa unveils a world apart.
The Dior Light Suite: haute couture light therapy (Lucibel)
A first in a Parisian palace, the Dior Light Suite, developed exclusively with Lucibel, is inspired by light therapy.
This cabin allows you to synchronize your circadian and chronobiological rhythms, which influence daily well-being, energy, sleep, and skin. Dior has thus created three exclusive, personalized rituals, accompanied by different light intensities, designed to harmonize your biological clock, let go of stress, and regain your dynamism—ideal for recovering from jet lag or strengthening your skin and body against daily aggressions.
Beauty&Guide – Dior Light rituals: three signature experiences
Recharge: the energizing ritual
The energizing Recharge ritual awakens the body and mind, harmonizing the biological clock and emotions. It draws inspiration from the dawn's gradually unfolding light, culminating in the brilliant rays of the midday sun, infused with the blue of the sky through gestures that reactivate the body.
Recover: Deep Recovery
The Recover ritual envelops the body and mind with the brightness of a day, ending in a soft amber twilight to promote recovery and reconnect with quality sleep.
Promising a great letting go, it combines a relaxing massage, a restorative nap phase and stimulating movements.
Rest: the buffer zone before sleep
With Rest, it's like a sunset plunging into the gentleness of the evening, inviting you to relax, like the prelude to a serene sleep.
A true decompression chamber before sleep, this ritual alternates sensory stimulation through light and massages ensuring the release of muscular tension, with relaxation phases allowing to lower physical and mental tension.
Exclusive treatments created for the Plaza Athénée
Designed as a true collection of Haute Couture treatments combining expert techniques and cutting-edge technologies, the menu features treatments specially developed for the Plaza Athénée.
The Dior Privé On-Demand Skincare
A treatment dedicated to the face or body, depending on your preferences.
Four 3-hour rituals for complete targeting
Dior D-Tox Therapy
Dior D-Stress Therapy
Dior D-Vibe Therapy
Dior D-Fit Therapy
Each ritual targets specific needs of the body, face, and mind.
Beauty&Guide – the art of well-being, right down to the experience
Dior has also imagined a unique relaxation area, a true focal point of the Spa: a lounge that is both a bubble of relaxation and a cabinet of curiosities focused on well-being, offering fruit and vegetable juices specially developed by Wild & The Moon, a selection of herbal teas and food supplements as well as Dior Wellness accessories.
Fitness Studio: elegance and performance
Located near the wellness area, a Fitness Studio offers hotel guests a dedicated space for physical fitness. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and designed with meticulous aesthetics, combining elegance and performance, it provides an ideal environment for individual training.
It is possible to experience all types of disciplines such as yoga, running, meditation, pilates, accompanied by highly qualified professional coaches, chosen from among the best talents in Paris.
The ultimate wellness break in Paris
Conceived as a luxurious, private space elevating well-being to its pinnacle, the Dior Spa Plaza Athénée invites you to the ultimate letting go through unique and personalized sensory experiences.
A place of high-tech treatments and a showcase of expert gestures, it presents itself as the symbol of the Parisian wellness retreat par excellence, an ultimate haven of peace for Parisian well-being.
