The Spa at Gansevoort Meatpacking NYC

"Rooms, in muted tones, are stylish, with topnotch electronics, but you’re really paying for the 360- degree views, the full spa, the heated rooftop pool (one of very few in the city) and the scene"

"Speaking of serenity, get your relaxation on at Exhale Spa, known for its mind-body therapies and Core Fusion fitness program"

"The G Spa, a 5,000-square-foot spa and fitness center, and the indoor/outdoor O Bar are destinations unto themselves"

"An outdoor rooftop pool, the Hiro Haraguchi salon, and the Gansevoort Spa & Lounge all help bolster the hotels resort status claims"

"Rooms are a good size with plush feather beds, while bathrooms are luxurious, and the hotel spa lavish"

"Recover the next day with a spa treatment or core fusion workout at the Exhale spa"

"Counteract the damage with a Core Fusion barre class—a workout incorporating ballet, yoga and Pilates—in the subterranean Exhale spa"

"Spacious suites with balconies, DVD players, tasteful dark accents, big views"

"If you find that you need a bit of relaxation during your stay at the boutique hotel, book a treatment at Exhale Fitness and Spa"

"Exhale Spa has a trio of infinity-edge hydro soaking pools, three private treatment rooms and the Prieto Select hair salon"
