Prague: Mandarin Oriental

THE SPA Built in the 14th century, this former Dominican monastery emanates mood, atmosphere, and beauty. The couples suite is made up of two underground rooms connected by a gothic corridor with a private relaxation area.

SETTING This recenty opened luxury hotel is set in Prague's fairy-tale-like Mala Strana neighborhood, an ideal base for romantic city walks.

SIGNATURE TREATMENT Linden trees – the Czech Republic's national emblem – are loved for their honey-scented blossoms and heart-shaped leafs. Indulge in the tree's romance and history with the Linden Blossom Scrub followed by a steaming pot of Linden blossom tea.

MORE THAN MASSAGE Wander the cobbled streets of Old Town; shop for crystal; explore the unique Bauhaus-meets-Medieval modernity that is Prague.

CUISINE Take afternoon tea in the airy Monastery Lounge and nibble on finger sandwiches and warm scones with Devonshire cream.
