There is always so much to do and see in New York City that it can seem as if you’re always going, going, going on your vacation. You and your partner are having a great time exploring Times Square and Central Park, or hitting all the best restaurants on your list, and you’re getting worn out. Vacations are supposed to be relaxing as well as fun and interesting, right?
Instead of spending another day seeing the sights, waiting in line with crowds of people, take some time out to reconnect with your partner at one of New York City’s exceptional spas. You’ll both be given that four-star treatment, and you’ll leave feeling refreshed.
We’ve compiled a list of the 7 best spas for couples in the heart of New York City:
