"Not only does The Langham Sydney have one of the best hotel pools in Australia, but their two-level underground day day – simply titled The Day Spa by Chuan – ain’t so bad either. Consider it to the ultimate luxury wellness sanctuary, tethered to the idea that just the right amount of excess, paired with top-quality products, can have a massive effect on spa treatments. Whether you’re choosing the Champagne pear massage or the heated volcanic stones treatment, there’s plenty of reasons why The Day Spa is a sure-thing when looking for the ultimate male day spas in Sydney."

"With great emphasis on a dark, calming atmosphere, The Darling Spa – buried beneath The Star’s high-end hotel – is a no-brainer for those looking for Sydney’s best men’s spa treatments. And the menu is packed with variety too, from hot rocks massages to a $240 marri marli facial and back treatment formulated especially for men.

"The name says it all: this is the darling of Sydney’s spa-land, and with good reason: The Spa takes up an entire floor of The Darling, and like the rest of the hotel it’s uber- uber-stylish. The dim lights, plush couches and sleek, dark timber furnishings create a space intimate and luxe enough to feel like you’ve climbed into honeycomb-infused chocolate – and it’s at least as delicious inside. The Spa at The Darling"

"At the top of their game, The Darling Spa is a must for the passionate hedonist. One of our go-to's for the best day spa in Sydney, you may have a hard time deciding which treatment to indulge in, but the Moroccan Hammam chamber or an invigorating session on the Kinesis wall is hard to go past. Couples are also catered for in their luxurious suites, and they're currently only open on weekends."

"The Four Seasons name promises a particular kind of experience, dah-ling – marble bench tops and opulent gold trimmings, for starters, although all the classic Four Seasons ingredients can be expected here. Indeed, the menu itself is something of an achievement with a lengthy list of facials, body treatments and massages, Dermalogica products, and local and international treatment techniques. Don’t miss out on the pièce de résistance: the ‘be-all-end-all’ package."

"With a menu dreamed up by Mitsuhiro Yashio, Yachiyo’s delectable Japanese offering is a pleasure to explore. Using incomparably fresh produce, the sashimi and sushi roll selection is worth lingering over, while the popcorn cauliflower with chilli sesame dressing and wagyu tataki are utterly moreish. Yakitori and hot-pots are available for a more substantial meal, and the ‘I love you very Mochi’ dessert is a sweet as it sounds."
