Manhattan's ultimate name-drop pamper den—see how "my last facial at the Plaza" flies with your friends—doesn't disappoint, from the first glass of vino sipped (via sommelier) in the French Paradox wine lounge to a pleasant hour or two spent in one of the 14 wood-paneled, candlelit treatment rooms. The spa uses aromatic grape-based Vinothêrapie products devoid of parabens and sulfates in its facials, which are customized to skin type and have already drawn a cult following: Carla Bruni and Betsey Johnson are fans. We loved the antioxidant facial, in which sprays, lotions, and masks are used to purify and soothe smog-ravaged skin. But if your bod's broke, try a Barrel Bath—the Grape Marc variety has you marinating in a Jacuzzi cum cask filled with exfoliating grape extracts. Our only complaint: Staff are too numerous and overbearing, leaving four minutes max between check-ins.
