New director for Corinthia’s Athenaeum Spa

Michelle Reynolds has been appointed to lead the newly refurbished state-ofthe-art luxury spa

The iconic Athenaeum Spa, which has been recently relaunched at Corinthia Palace Attard, now has a new director.

Michelle Reynolds was appointed as Athenaeum Spa director in October, following the grand reopening of the extensively refurbished luxury spa earlier the same month.

Michelle brings to her role as director a wealth of international experience honed in the Middle East, Maldives and the UK through leading other renowned spas such as those at the Berkeley Hotel in London, the Westin Doha, as well as Kempinski Marsa Malaz in Qatar.

Her shared values of striving for five-star quality and delivering a holistic, unsurpassed guest experience are an ideal match with those of the award-winning Corinthia Palace.

“I am overjoyed to be working on such a beautiful project.

Athenaeum Spa is phenomenal and I have joined a team who believe, as I do, in delivering a fivestar guest experience,” says Michelle. “I am hugely excited to take on the leadership of this spectacular Spa, particularly following its reopening where the refurbishment has been extensive and so much thought had been put into the aesthetics of the Spa as well as into the guest journey.”

The newly relaunched Athenaeum Spa is designed to be an oasis of tranquillity, where guests can find calm and wellbeing for both body and mind. Its state-of-the-art facilities include a thermal Vitality Suite, heated marble beds, a sauna and steam room, nail bar, seven treatment rooms, a relaxation lounge and terrace, an indoor pool with a Jacuzzi and a large outdoor pool. Meanwhile, the holistic health of each guest is supported with treatments tailored to their individual needs, created from a range of natural ingredients. This sensorial guest experience is further nurtured by the Spa’s elegant architecture that draws upon Maltese culture and unique artisanal character.

“We are thrilled to welcome Michelle as director of Athenaeum Spa,” shares Corinthia Palace general manager, Adrian Attard. “She has lived throughout her impressive career our ethos of offering guests a relaxing and rejuvenating holistic experience, so she is the ideal candidate to lead the reopened Spa towards becoming one of the best luxury spas not just in Malta, but in the world.”
