Luxury spas and saunas exist all over the world in key international travel destinations. As exhilarating as exploring a foreign region can be, sometimes just staying in the hotel and taking in some time in the steam room is a nice way to rejuvenate your energy.
Be it business travelers, road-weary explorers, or arriving in a new country after a long flight, we thought we’d count down some of the most impressive world-class saunas and spas from international travel hotels.
