Asaya Spa is Rosewood’s wellness concept, located in the historic courthouse on the canal, now the Rosewood Amsterdam hotel. Inside, there’s little that resembles a typical hotel spa: Studio Piet Boon designed the spaces as an urban sanctuary where you’ll find references to wood, water, wind, and fire throughout. Soft, natural light streams in, the materials feel soothing to the touch, and the transition between wet and dry areas is gradual.
At the heart of the spa is the 12-meter-long indoor pool. It’s not a water park, but a long, tranquil space where water is the central feature. Along its edge are the heat facilities: a sauna and a steam room. This makes it easy to switch between swimming, cooling off, and warming up again, without having to walk through the entire complex every time.
The treatments at Asaya Spa are built around several pillars: emotional balance, physical therapies, fitness, skin health, and community. In practice, this means that you don’t just come for a single massage or facial, but that there’s also room for longer-term wellness programs. Think of sessions that combine touch, movement, breath, or sound, depending on what you need.

What sets Asaya Spa apart in the Dutch wellness world is the combination of an international spa brand with strong local roots. The location in the former courthouse on the canal, right in the heart of the UNESCO canal district, is not hidden away but rather brought to life in the interior and the way nature and culture are incorporated into the design and the spa programs.
