Spa Weekend
 
Looking for a one year wedding anniversary weekend with great food, great rooms, and spa treatments. We live in Bergen County New Jersey and would like to go a one to two hour drive away. I have been all over the net and can't get a good feeling for anything.
Any suggestion is a good one.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks

How about Cape May? Charming locale and good restaurants. You can research the spa options.

Or how about a really nice big city hotel with spa options such as The Four Seasons in Philadelphia? Great, walkable city with great restaurants.

Philadelphia is a great idea....The city is very walkable and the food is adventurous

Bally's Park Place in Atlantic City has one of the best spas at the shore; haven't seen Borgata, but I imagine that would be a pretty good one, too.

Norwich Inn & Spa in CT is supposed to be very nice.

The spa at Hershey, PA I've heard good things about.

Borgatta's Tocare Spa in AC is very nice (this one from personal experience).

Also, Minerals spa at Great Gorge right here in NJ was nice when I was there at New Year's last year.

I have been to the Hershey Spa and would return in a heart beat. The spa is wonderful. They know how to pamper someone.

The Hilton at Short Hills has a nice spa and there are lots of nice towns to explore near it...Chatham, Madison, Chester, etc.

I live 10 minutes from the Short Hills Hilton Spa. It is a nice spa (I was just there in July).

It's kinda like visiting Suburbia though...not really a getaway weekend destination IMO unless you want to shop at Short Hills Mall.

Coming from Bergen County, that's not much of a change of scenery from home.
