The Evian-owned public spa in Évian-les-Bains, France, Les Thermes d'Evian, is now back up and running after a seven month overhaul.
Designed by architect Olivier Chabaud, the spa has been themed around water as an essential element and source of life. The renovations make it more comfortable and functional.
White triangular spaces feature throughout the spa, which symbolise the snow-capped Alpine summits. Colours have been influenced by the different colours of water and the evian brand. On the lower floor, slightly curved walls feature water marks, while clouds in shades of blue float on the French windows by the pool.
Three programmes are offered: get into shape, a sporty programme. Relax and 'let go' with a focus on revitalisation and finding balance. Renew is about regeneration and uses the therapeutic benefits of water to aid cell healing and regeneration.
The spa has been zoned into three areas. The Aqua area, where the water treatments take place, comprises 26 hydrotherapy cabins, two pools, a sauna and a hammam. Unbescheiden has supplied Vichy showers and bath tubs which provide underwater massage.
The wellness area for treatments has been redesigned to allow in natural daylight. All the treatment rooms are named after old French words for water, such as agua and woda. Skinceuticals, Terraké and After the Rain are the product brands.
The fitness area has been relocated so guests can enjoy views of the lake and grounds, with a separate entrance and changing rooms. Les Mills has put together the class programme.
Evian owns three spas in the town, with sites at Hôtel Royal and Hôtel Emritage, within The Royal Park Evian. The spa at Hôtel Royal is also in line for a rebrand to evianSpa. This concept has just debuted at the Palace Hotel Tokyo (see interview in Spa Business Q4 with Laurent Houel, global brand development director at Evian).
