Loews Regency Hotel on Park Avenue in New York has reopened after a year of extensive renovations costing US$100m (£60.7m, €73.7m).
The landmark hotel, which first opened its doors in 1963, has 379 bedrooms, four new private meeting spaces and a 1,700sq ft (158sq m) fitness centre.
The newly renovated hotel will offer a Salon & Spa by celebrity hairstylist Julien Farel when it opens later in March. The 10,000sq ft (929sq m) salon and spa, designed by Meyer Davis, will offer a complete wellness experience encompassing hair, nails, makeup and fitness.
The salon will feature 32 hair stations, private suites and a lounge. The spa will include three single massage rooms, one double, two facial rooms, a nail suite and a post-treatment relaxation lounge.
On the ground floor of the hotel JF Men will also be launched – a service which includes two private multi-service rooms to cater to men’s grooming needs.
Farel will also provide the in-room toiletries for all of the guest rooms and suites. Farel's Anti-Aging Haircare & Body are powered by an exclusive Anti-Aging Balance 'A2B' technology that “delivers clinically proven Anti-Aging Bioactives to rejuvenate skin and hair with intense hydration, targeted repair and vital protection."
