Sometimes a guy can really get behind some TLC, especially if that involves a close shave, a massage, premium cocktails and a great steak.

The iconic Rosewood Hotel Georgia, situated in downtown Vancouver, has partnered up with Barber & Co, the city’s leading full-service barbershop, to offer a sophisticated afternoon escape, geared to gentlemen.

This new package is offered year-round, and begins at Barber & Co Financial District, just steps from the hotel, where guests are transported to a time when the barbershop served as a gathering place for men to socialize. Once settled in to the shop’s vintage barber chairs, guests will be treated to the time-honored ritual of a straight razor hot shave using hot towels and essential oils.

Post shave, guests will return to the hotel to enjoy a 50-minute Deep Relief Massage at Sense, A Rosewood Spa. While that takes place the hotel team will hand-press their suits, just in time for an evening out.

Next up? Looking and feeling like a million bucks, meet a buddy over cocktails and dinner at Prohibition, the hotel’s underground cocktail bar. Classic cocktails shaken or stirred by Prohibition’s award-winning bartender, Robyn Gray, are followed by a steak dinner.

Kick back afterward with your choice from a selection of cigars, then hop into the hotel’s Bentley who will whisk you through the city to one of Vancouver’s hotspots for a night on the town.
