Montreal is often recognized for its renowned restaurants, non-stop festivals, friendly people and exquisite nightlife. But one thing our city offers that often falls under the radar is our spa scene.
Montreal likes to play hard, but we love a relaxing moment. A restful day at one of the many Montreal spas will leave you feeling rejuvenated and restored and there's one spa, in particular, that is putting the rest to shame.
The best spas in the world were recently ranked and one luxury destination in Montreal made the cut.
Forbes released its annual list of its Travel Guide Star Awards and when it comes to the Best Spas in the World, the remarkable Guerlain Spa at the Four Seasons in Montreal is a total must-try.
Forbes uses an objective inspection process with over 900 criteria that its "highly trained inspectors" or secret travel agents, as we like to put it, use when inspecting both a service and a facility."
"Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest," Forbes stated.
It's safe to say Forbes' secret spies had plenty of great things to say about the Guerlain Spa.
