Mala McAlpin An exciting announcement was made this week – that Australia will finally be home to its first Ritz-Carlton, set to launch in Perth on November 15, 2019. The luxury hotel and spa aims to redefine the guest experience along the West Coast by offering personalised service and immersive experiences conceptualised around the history, culture and natural beauty found in the region. The hotel’s day spa will reflect wellness traditions of the region, created with the guidance of leading international spa and wellness consultants GOCO Hospitality.
The hotel will be set in prime location at 1 Barrak Street, minutes from local attractions like Kings Park and The Bell Tower. Guests can expect the same world-renowned Ritz-Carlton experience in Perth – heralded to be a unique destination offering incredible stays with equally incredible experiences – from luxurious spa treatments to twilight cruises along the Swan River and luxury seaplane tours.
Cladded in 10,000 pieces of Kimberley sandstone on both the exterior and the lobby, Perth’s Ritz-Carlton will feature 205 luxurious rooms including 18 elegantly appointed suites, and the restaurant and rooftop bar hopes to become the newest go-to destination amongst Perth’s dining and nightlife scene.
Hotel guests and locals alike will be able to visit the day spa to rejuvenate their mind, body and soul. Through market research and feasibility studies, GOCO Hospitality has assisted Ritz-Carlton in spa concept, brand development and provided design and technical services.
The spa will feature three treatments rooms, one spa suite, saunas, a heated outdoor infinity pool, vitality pools with massage jets and a private mind & body studio.
Ingo Schweder, Founder & CEO of GOCO Hospitality, said, “it has been an incredible pleasure to work with Ritz-Carlton on this exciting new project on the beautiful West coast of Australia. By marrying local and natural elements with exclusive wellness treatments, the Ritz-Carlton Spa taps into the true energy of the locale.”
