MANDARIN SUITE MANDARIN ORIENTAL HONG KONG, HONG KONG Overlooking Hong Kong’s skyline and Victoria Harbour, the two-bedroom Mandarin Suite is a tranquil haven in the busy city. Within the 3,843-sq-ft suite, there is a living room, kitchen, bar, huge balcony and dining room for up to 12 guests, all furnished with antiques and handcrafted pieces. We love the spa suite with two massage beds — perfect if you’re traveling with your significant other and are after a soothing couple’s massage without leaving the suite. Or, if you need a little ‘me’ time, have an indulgent soak in the marble deep soaking bathtub with views over the city. From $10,020 per night.

The highly skilled medical team can make visits to the plush suite —which occupies the entire first floor of the Parkvilla and has a private entrance, so discretion is guaranteed.

PRESIDENTIAL PENTHOUSE SUITE WALDORF ASTORIA BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA, USA Views of the Hollywood Hills from the floor-to-ceiling windows or the enormous 1,459-sq- ft terrace of the Presidential Penthouse Suite might inspire you to take an early morning hike through the many trails. Or, you could retreat to the suite’s very own mini-gym for a workout with your personal trainer (the suite’s personal concierge can arrange this — and anything else you might need) followed by a relaxing treatment in the in-suite spa room. Once you’ve worked up an appetite, refuel at the 12-person dining table, or head downstairs to Jean-Georges for a turmeric tonic. From $20,000 per night.

Or take your routine outdoors to the spacious terrace — the sparkling water of the swimming pool with hydro-massage is particularly inviting once you’ve worked up a sweat.
