Asaya Hong Kong: an unmatched wellness journey for body and mind



Asaya Hong Kong is an extra luxury and innovative wellness concept with personalized solutions. A  superior, holistic health and wellness journey, the ultimate new urban wellness destination situated in the Rosewood brand’s home city of Hong Kong.

 Named after the Sanskrit term for setting an intention or hope to propel self-change and transformation, Asaya welcomes individuals from all walks of life to pursue their personal wellness goals in a nurturing and supportive environment. Offering locally inspired, culturally authentic experiences across five key components of holistic wellness, Asaya provides an unparalleled opportunity to achieve unlimited potential in the year ahead and beyond. 


Occupying 3,716 square metres (40,000 square feet) and set over two dedicated floors of indoor-outdoor space in the iconic Rosewood Tower, within the game-changing new Victoria Dockside development on Tsim Sha Tsui’s waterfront, Asaya is the most comprehensive integrated urban wellness offering of any hotel or lifestyle facility in the city. 


Located on the sixth and seventh floors, Asaya sets out to holistically support a lifestyle of wellness and includes carefully curated experiences with expert practitioners that empower Rosewood’s guests, as well as Asaya patrons and members, to begin their wellness journeys by first connecting with themselves.






Asaya’s approach transcends conventional ideas of spa to offer best-in-class integrated treatments from a variety of traditions; personalised wellness programmes tailored around guests’ needs and goals; and specialised retreats and workshops across a wide range of disciplines that address the fundamentals of health and well-being and effect long-lasting change across all age groups.


Lifestyle programming at Asaya has been developed around five distinct pillars which include emotional balance; fitness and nutrition; physical therapies; skin health; and community --with “passages” customised to the individual needs of each guest. 





Therapies for mind, body and spirit are provided in an intimate, compassionate and non-judgemental environment. 
Specialist retreats by world-renowned visiting expert practitioners combine the best traditional and alternative therapies to treat and heal, inspire and empower every participant to realise their goals and aspirations in order to achieve deep and positive change.





Asaya members and local patrons are encouraged to begin their Asaya journeys with specially designed functional assessments to identify the core areas on which they wish to focus. These range from the Wellness Lifestyle Assessment that evaluates the 12 dimensions of wellness in our lives, to Genetic Analysis, as well as 3-D Facial Skin Analysis, as a precursor to a host of targeted treatments.

Developed in close consultation with Asaya’s expert practitioners and visiting specialists, and based on an individual or group’s unique fitness and lifestyle goals, Asaya’s Signature Programmes combine the best traditional and alternative therapies to treat and heal, or inspire and empower, with the aim of achieving positive change.


As part of this integrative Signature Programming, Asaya Hong Kong offers an inclusive series of wellness experiences centred around counselling, that facilitate personal change andtransformation at their core.

“One Day Wellness” provides an entry-level retreat and acomprehensive taste of Asaya; “Unplug” helps foster healthy habits with technology; “Growing Together” for couples assists in relating to one’s significant other with greater trust and mutualunderstanding. Tailored to the specific needs of families seeking to foster more effective communication and to teach the younger generation the wide-reaching benefits of mindfulness,“Growing Together” for families and “Wellness for Kids” offer the tools to reconnect and find new relevance to one another.

Harnessing the Asaya pillar of Emotional Balance, personalised training and lifestyle coaching co-exist as the foundations to transformation, offering expert tools to tackle self-hindering behaviours. Under the guidance of Asaya’s resident experts, emotional awareness meditation, mindfulness practice, cognitive therapy and expressive arts therapy can be combined to unlock the obstacles to profound personal change.

In partnership with award-winning New York designer Tony Chi, who has created Asaya’s elegantly balanced, light-filled and cocooning interiors, a restorative aesthetic echoes the Japanese sensibilities around wellness and well-being. A series of engawas – porches or terraces in traditional Japanese architecture -- connect the inner spaces of the 6th floor with the outdoor pool and passageways leading to the Asaya Galleries, Asaya Ateliers, Asaya Kitchen and Poolside Bar, as well as fragrant herb gardens and ornamental pools in the inner courtyardbeyond. This extensive network of spaces connecting the outside to Asaya’s interiors facilitatesa continual flow of energy and movement that harmonises people and nature.

The concept of energetic spaces is further enhanced by the flow of positive energy or langom - a Swedish term meaning “just right.” 





Affording easterly harbour views, the outdoor infinity pool provides a vantage point for swimming and serene contemplation, with custom wooden sun loungers adjacent to the Poolside Bar offering a supremely comfortable refuge from the sun.

During residential stays at the overnight Asaya Lodges, even the personal bar is curated, basedon the guest’s consultation with Asaya’s resident doctor of naturopathy.
