Luxury hotel Canyon Ranch in Lenox is situated in the heart of New England. This award-winning luxury hotel and health resort offers the latest in cutting-edge treatments to help guests improve their lifestyle and wellbeing.

The facilities

There's always something going on at this luxury hotel - a programme of indoor and outdoor activities run throughout the day, ranging from fitness classes, hiking and biking programs and spa and beauty services to lectures and private consultations/workshops with the experts. A team of physicians, nurses, health practitioners, nutritionists and exercise physiologists are on hand to provide group and one-on-one support.

The biggest news at Canyon Ranch is its focus on proactive health. The 'Genomics' treatments use high-tech equipment to study guests' genes to find out their health susceptibilities. In this way, guests can go on a health and fitness programme to prevent disease before it occurs.

As well as this, guests get put on their own personal wellness programme even before they arrive. Guests receive a call from the hotel and discuss what they would like to focus on and improve during their time at the luxury hotel. From here, a personal planner for their stay can be set up.

Reassuringly, the food at the luxury hotel's restaurant is not all wheatgrass shots and leaves for dinner. Instead, good food is cooked healthily to produce wholesome and balanced meals.

The rooms

The luxury hotel's 126 rooms are functional and comfortable, with large beds and down-stuffed pillows plus satellite TV and internet connections. Suites have their own washer & dryer, plus two bathrooms.
