Life’s everyday hustle can take its toll, even if you love your job and home area. Washington, D.C., has you covered when you’re ready for a spa day with some serious downtime and pampering. There’s something to help everyone relax and plenty of salons and spas in D.C. to choose from. Here are just a few of the area’s top rejuvenation spots.

Our Top List of D.C. Spas
Bliss
Bliss is one of the newer spas in D.C. It was founded in 1996 on a belief that “inner happiness leads to outer beauty.” Its “transforming skin wellness” line helps clients put their best faces forward through products that are certified cruelty-free and meet exacting European Union standards for purity – and all at prices that won’t break the bank. Bliss offers plenty of in-house treatments — facials, massages, scrubs, waxing, nails, and laser hair removal — in addition to a full range of take-home products for skin and hair care.
Bliss is in convenient proximity to many of our apartment locations. It is about a mile west of the 1600 Apartments and less than 2 miles from The Rocksboro Apartments, the 1830 R Street Apartments, and The Rodney. Bliss sits about 1.4 miles east of The Circle Arms Apartments.
Mandarin Oriental
This “oasis of holistic therapy for body, mind, and spirit” is inspired by ancient traditions and home to an artfully designed space, warm coloring, aromatherapy, and more. Mandarin Oriental guests are invited to “relax in our glorious heat and water oasis, soothing muscles and loosening limbs to prepare for the deepest therapeutic experience.” The spa encourages guests to arrive 45 minutes early to make use of the amenities.
Residents of The Circle Arms Apartments can quickly and easily reach Mandarin Oriental for a spa day, as it is a less than 15-minute drive from their front doors.
