Day Resorts

FortWayne.com: Now that every corner beauty shop calls itself a day spa, along comes something new: the day resort.
That’s what Cornelia Zicu calls the haven she opened recently on top of the Ferragamo building in Manhattan.
The main level houses 11 facial and massage rooms, luxurious locker rooms, a hair salon, a separate barbershop and a tranquil relaxation area where staff members brew tea or pour Champagne for guests awaiting treatments.
For a true urban treat, though, there’s the roof garden (scheduled to open in June) where guests can catch some sun or have a lazy lunch from Cafe Cornelia.
The roof level also features three soaking tubs, four body treatment rooms and a pool for Watsu massage.
A signature massage is $150, a facial is $175 – and each comes with an array of tempting enhancers such as hot stones or aromatherapy that sends the prices higher.
