Got my first facial in Switzerland here. The spa looks like a tiny little shop next door to the…read moreIrish pub, but once you go inside, it opens up in the back with multiple rooms and a fairly large downstairs area with changing room, showers, and a lounge.
The lounge area was called the Cocoon and had comfy seats with water and tea and fresh fruits and magazines. Unfortunately, I was in a bit of a time crunch after work and didn't really get to fully utilize those facilities for relaxation.
The staff is really friendly and able to cater to English-speaking customers. I got the Skin Defense treatment with Nicole Buser. It cost CHF 150 and was one hour of luxurious pampering with facial and neck and shoulder massages, a light milk acid exfoliation, some extraction, and a facial mask.
They offer your choice of either hand massage or foot massage while waiting for the mask to dry. I opted for the foot massage, and it was quite nice and hydrating.
They use a lot of scented oils and stuff, so the whole treatment was quite aromatic. I think they used rosemary and thyme and menthol or something fresh-smelling.
I would say this place is a bit pricey, but it's probably standard for something like this in Zurich. And the splurge was worth it to treat myself to my first facial in 4 years!
