Buddha-bar to extend brand to Panama
POSTED 27 Feb 2009 . BY Sarah Todd
George V Restauration – the group behind the international buddha-bar chain, and its spin-off brand, buddha-bar spa, is to enter Latin America with the buddha-bar Hotel and Spa in Panama.

Opening in 2010, the property will be located in the heart of Panama City and feature an iconic restaurant and a buddha-bar spa.

The spa team will be trained by ayurvedic masters, with treatments following eastern principles of Indian traditions and using the range of in-house Buddhattitude products.

Last year, George V Restauration revealed further details about the brand extension of its new day spa concept called Buddhattitude.

Two standalone Buddhattitude spas will open in the next 12 months in the Middle East and Africa. The first will be in Doha, Qatar, and the second in Dakar, the capital city of Senegal, will debut in May 2009. Both will be privately owned. Details: buddhabarpanama.com
