ABOUT THE SPA
Elential Spa is located on the -2 level of the Renaissance Santiago, acting as a hidden subterranean sanctuary beneath the city's high-speed business district. The entry into the spa immediately shifts the guest's frequency, moving from the bold, artistic energy of the hotel lobby to a space defined by soft acoustics and muted tones. As part of a LEED Gold certified building, the spa operates with a conscience, ensuring that your relaxation doesn't come at a high environmental cost.
The facility is surprisingly comprehensive for an urban hotel spa, featuring a robust thermal circuit that is often the highlight for guests. The combination of a wet steam room, a dry sauna, and a sparkling Jacuzzi allows for a traditional European-style "heat-and-cool" ritual. A unique feature of Elential is the inclusion of "Hot Beds"—heated stone loungers that are perfect for relaxing between treatments or simply warming the core after a session in the nearby fitness center.
Fitness and wellness are seamlessly integrated at Elential. The adjacent gym is one of the best-equipped in Santiago, featuring top-of-the-line machines and free weights that attract both hotel guests and local members. This creates a more "active" wellness vibe than you might find at more traditional, sleepy destination spas. It is a favorite for business travelers who need to maintain a high-performance routine while on the road, offering a one-stop shop for a workout, a sauna, and a deep-tissue massage.
The treatment menu is focused on efficiency and effectiveness. While the spa offers long, indulgent rituals, it excels in targeted bodywork—specifically massages designed to combat the physical toll of long-haul travel. The staff is noted for their professional, "personalized attention," often customizing oils and pressure to the guest's specific needs. Many reviews highlight the high-tech relaxation capsule, a modern tool that helps reset the nervous system, proving that the spa is not afraid to embrace modern science alongside traditional touch.
Ultimately, Elential Spa at the Renaissance Santiago is about "modern balance." It provides a high-end, clean, and reliable wellness experience without the pretension of larger resort spas. Whether you are grabbing a quick "recharge" before a meeting or spending a Sunday afternoon in the thermal waters, the spa delivers on the promise of the Renaissance brand: to discover something new and leave feeling better than when you arrived. It remains a cornerstone of Vitacura’s luxury landscape, representing the future of sustainable urban wellness.

Eco-Conscious and Modernist
Located within the Renaissance Santiago Hotel in the upscale Vitacura district, Elential Spa is a serene extension of Chile’s first LEED Gold certified hotel. The design is clean and modernist, echoing the hotel's commitment to sustainability with natural textures and a light-filled, minimalist aesthetic. It serves as a sophisticated retreat for business travelers and eco-minded tourists, offering a quiet contrast to the busy Avenida Kennedy outside.
The spa experience is notably eco-conscious, reflecting the property's broader mission of environmental stewardship. Beyond standard relaxation, the facility is designed as a holistic wellness hub where high-tech fitness meets ancient water rituals. With its "understated luxury" approach, Elential Spa focuses on the restorative power of temperature and touch, providing a sleek, functional sanctuary for those looking to "disconnect to reconnect" in the heart of Santiago.
