Our reading
The spa’s ‘hyperbaric chamber for post-treatment and post-procedure healing’ is a great way to make sure you leave feeling like a million bucks — and also like you’ve been through a million bucks worth of procedures. It’s not just a spa, it’s a full-service existential crisis. The Mark Hotel, known for its ‘discretion,’ now offers a place where you can be pampered and also, presumably, quietly judged. The spa’s three retreats — face, body, and hyperbaric — suggest a clear hierarchy of self-care. If you’re going to invest in a ‘cocoon,’ you might as well make sure it’s a cocoon with a checklist.
