Town Talk



A Girlfriend Getaway Right Outside D.C.

The Ritz-Carlton Hotel at Tysons Corner might not be the classiest Ritz in the country, but the location is shopping-amazing. It’s attached to Tysons Corner Center Mall, where Lacoste, Anthropologie, Juicy Couture, L’Occitane, Stuart Weitzman, De Beers, Betsey Johnson, Abercrombie & Fitch, Forever 21, J. Jill, Kenneth Cole, West Elm, BCBGMacaZria meet Saks Fifth Avenue, Lebanese Taverna, See’s Candy and more meet up just to keep us, the shoppers, happy!

For after shopping, the spa is indulgence squared. Take a dive in the saline pool (no chemicals!), and then check in for a 50 minute Reiki Energy Healing, Self-heating Mud massage—or really hit the pampering hard with the Ultimate Day of Beauty, which is 300 minutes of a Therapeutic Massage, a European Facial, a gourmet Spa luncheon, a Deluxe Manicure with Paraffin and Deluxe Pedicure with Paraffin.  Hello!  This is called service.

Last but not least, the food here is excellent, as is the bar (very comfortable and welcoming). The name of the restaurant is unfortunate - ENTYSE—but don’t let that throw you.  The farm-to-table approach of cooking doesn’t let down—highly recommended, the Organic Amish Chicken with Potatoes Puree, Glazed Vegetables and Chicken Jus—and is accompanied by picks chosen by the very charismatic Sommelier Vincent Feraud. 

If you’re looking for the perfect Mother’s Day getaway, look no further than this Ritz property.
