Located on level nine in the health club/pool area, Chuan Spa offers seven treatment rooms, men's and women's dressing areas with locker facilities, separate steam rooms and saunas, and private rooms for post-treatment relaxation.

In Chinese, chuan means “flowing water” and represents the rebirth and rebalancing of the entire being. Chuan Spa is a place designed to create an ambience of tranquility for contemplation and inspiration. Treatments aim to nurture, heal, and restore, and use products that represent the Five Elements: wood, earth, metal, fire, and water. To this end, guests are asked to complete a brief lifestyle elemental questionnaire before each treatment in order to determine which treatments suit their needs.

In addition to the signature Langham Chuan Spa products, the spa uses and sells options from the Thalgo skincare line, which draws inspiration from the marine environment.
