A French Quarter retreat & its best kept secret

Upstairs, the city goes quiet

The spa wraps around you like the warmth of a summer evening in New Orleans. From the soft glow of candles to the infusion of fragrance, Aria carries you somewhere slower.

Our gifted therapists and estheticians work with intuitive hands and Pevonia Botanica skincare. Whether you're staying upstairs, in town for the weekend, or you live ten minutes away, the goal is the same: whatever you walked in carrying stays on the table.

The space

Built around a theme of air

We recently finished a renovation around one idea: air. Soft blues and blush, marble and gold light. It's a cozy retreat, so you won't find a steam room or sauna here. What you will find is impeccable service and a lounge you won't want to leave.

I got a deep tissue massage (sorely needed), and spent the rest of the day in an unusually good mood.

Taylor G. Google review

Spa Aria is a lovely, quiet experience in The Hotel Monteleone. My husband and I enjoyed a couples massage… It was the BEST massage we have ever had.

Lisa M. Google review

The owner is fantastic! Messaged with me well past business hours and got us in VERY last minute for a couples massage. Highlight of our trip to New Orleans!!

Julie Google review

The accumulated aches from airline travel and typical tourist activities melted away thanks to a lovely massage at this spa.

Karen C. Google review

If you’re feeling particularly tight, the 90 min deep tissue with Jay is a great cure.

Niki C. Google review

From the initial phone call forward to my appointment, and until leaving was amazing. Very clean and relaxing.

Good to know

Questions we hear most

The short answers. Anything else, call us at 504.523.9990.

Do I need to be a hotel guest?

No. Spa Aria is locally owned and open to everyone. We're one floor up from the Royal Street lobby, and many of our guests are locals and visitors staying elsewhere.

Do locals get a discount?

We love our locals. Monday through Thursday, local guests get 10% off their treatment. Just mention it when you book.

How do I book?

Select treatments can be booked online any time. Packages, body treatments and anything you don't see online are booked by phone at 504.523.9990, or send us a request and we'll reply with times. Appointments are recommended.

What do I need to book?

Appointments are guaranteed once a valid credit card is provided for your reservation. Cancel at least 24 hours ahead and there's no charge; no‑shows and late cancellations are charged. Please let us know about any medical conditions, pregnancy, allergies or sensitivities so we can keep your visit safe. Have a special request? Email [email protected].

When should I arrive?

About ten minutes early. That leaves time to check in and settle into the lounge before your treatment starts. A robe is not needed for a single treatment.

Where do I park?

Valet parking is available at the Hotel Monteleone's Royal Street entrance, and we validate parking for spa guests who aren't staying at the hotel. There are also public garages within a few blocks.

Can we book a couples massage?

Yes. Two tables in one room, side by side, with a glass of champagne afterward. Book one appointment per guest at the same time, or call and we'll set the room for two.

Is there a steam room or sauna?

No. Spa Aria is a cozy retreat without the steam and sauna, so the focus stays on the treatment and the lounge. Not staying at the hotel? Spa guests can buy a pool pass for $25.

Do you sell gift cards?

Yes, online any time, and at the spa. They work for any treatment or product in the boutique.

Is the spa accessible?

Yes. The entrance and restroom are wheelchair accessible, and the spa is reached by elevator from the lobby.
