Auckland-based Chuan Spa has been named New Zealand Spa of the Year at the Travel and Hospitality Awards for the second consecutive year, reflecting continued growth in the wellness segment of the visitor economy.
Located within Cordis, Auckland, the spa offers treatments based on Traditional Chinese Medicine principles, combining therapeutic approaches with a premium urban setting.
Wellness gaining traction in visitor mix
The repeat recognition comes as wellness continues to play a larger role in travel behaviour, with visitors increasingly seeking experiences focused on relaxation, recovery and wellbeing.
Urban hotel-based spas are a key part of that offering, particularly in gateway cities such as Auckland, where they complement accommodation and conference infrastructure.
Supporting broader visitor experience
Chuan Spa operates within a wider hotel environment that includes accommodation, dining and event facilities, positioning it within Auckland’s broader tourism and business events ecosystem.
The award reflects ongoing demand for high-quality wellness experiences as part of both leisure and business travel.
