LeSpa extends to South Pacific region
By Sarah Todd
The first LeSpa in Australia has opened at the Sofitel Mansion Hotel at Werribee Park, around a 20 minute drive south-west of Melbourne.
The boutique spa is part of an AUS$1m (US$0.78m, 0.59m euro, £0.4m) upgrade of the hotel’s facilities.
The 1,600sq ft (149sq m) spa consists of eight treatment rooms including a Lancôme beauty studio and a VIP suite with access to a private hammam.
Brands used for therapies will be Decléor, Lancôme and Australian brand Li’Tya.
General manager of Sofitel Mansion and Spa, John Dickson, said: “We are delighted to be joining the Sofitel network. LeSpa is a first for the South Pacific region, and will add to an already impressive list of facilities at our landmark property.”
The Mansion Hotel has 91 bedrooms and was first opened in 2000.
The Sofitel brand is part of the Accor hospitality group, which operates in nearly 100 countries with more than 160,000 employees.
