"This Thai massage centre offers one of the best massage experiences in Bangkok. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming from the moment you walk in, and the staff are attentive, professional, and genuinely skilled. A special mention goes to Perry, the therapist, whose technique was exceptional and made the entire session deeply relaxing and truly rejuvenating. She maintained the perfect balance of pressure and rhythm, easing tension while still keeping the massage soothing and enjoyable from start to finish. The aroma massage with medium pressure was an excellent choice. The experience begins with selecting your preferred oils and scrubs, allowing you to personalise the treatment to your liking. The thoughtfulness continue after the session. Guests are offered a refreshing green tea and a small cookie, adding a comforting finish to the experience. The centre is impressively clean, hygienic, and well-maintained, which enhances the overall sense of comfort and professionalism. Overall, this place delivers outstanding service, skilled therapists, and a peaceful environment. With therapists like Perry providing such high-quality care, it truly stands out. A full five-star experience and highly recommended for anyone looking for a top-tier massage in Bangkok."

"1) Great location! Close to Ari Station, restaurants, and cafes. 2) Booked via Bowers and confirmed via WhatsApp before visiting. I made a reservation the day before during Bangkok’s low season on a weekday; the spa has two floors. 3) The massage pressure was adjusted exactly as requested, and it was refreshing and relaxing (I received a foot massage). 4) The space is clean, and the atmosphere is cozy yet luxurious (including the restroom). The price seems to be mid-range, but it is worth the cost. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a massage near Ari Station!!! Great location, just a short walk from Ari BTS Station and surrounded by plenty of restaurants and cafes. I booked through Bowers and checked the schedule via WhatsApp. I made a reservation the day before during Bangkok’s low season on a weekday. The spa has two floors and was easy to find. The massage pressure was adjusted exactly as requested, and the foot massage was very refreshing and relaxing. The space was clean, cozy, and elegant, including the restroom. The price is in the mid-to-high range, but definitely worth it. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quality massage near Ari Station!"

"I had an incredible experience at Ikigai Massage that completely changed my perception of what a massage can be. First, the ambience is beautifully done. The space has a clean Japandi aesthetic, yet still feels warm and thoughtfully decorated. You can tell they pay attention to detail — not just visually, but also in the quality of the items used in the massage rooms, from the bed linens to the towels and robes. The heated bed had excellent cushioning. I often find face-down headrests uncomfortable, especially when deeper pressure is applied, as they can put strain on my throat and chest, but I didn’t experience any discomfort here at all. The headrest felt well-designed and comfortably supportive, and even the towel covering my eyes was gently warmed throughout the session. The massage itself was, without exaggeration, the BEST I’ve ever had. I went with a friend, and despite our very different pressure preferences (I prefer deep pressure while my friend prefers something lighter), we both walked away feeling exactly the same: completely blown away. I spent the entire 90 minutes (honestly wishing I had booked 120) in awe of the technique. It struck a perfect balance between the art and science of massage. What stood out most was my masseuse's impeccable execution and precision. The human body isn’t flat or even, yet she was able to apply incredibly consistent pressure seamlessly from my neck through my upper and lower back in a single, fluid motion. Every movement had a purpose that was perfectly executed with patience; not a single movement felt perfunctory. My masseuse's sense of rhythm and flow was also remarkable — not just within each movement, where every firm press was followed by just the right release to allow me to breathe comfortably, but also in how the entire session was structured. It felt like she had a profound understanding of the human body: she knows how to release all my hidden tensions and guide my body into total relaxation. I also tend to prefer finger work over elbows or forearms, as larger tools can sometimes lack nuance. But my masseuse demonstrated the same level of control, accuracy, and sensitivity using her elbows, arms, and full body. It completely changed my perspective. This was a truly unforgettable experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bangkok."

"This was my first time here, and I won't be coming back. (I came based on reviews on Google Maps.) 1. During the massage, I could hear loud, bass-heavy music coming from the wall of the building next door, making the floor vibrate and preventing me from feeling relaxed as I should have. This is a massage parlor, not a bar! 2. The massage therapists were talking amongst themselves intermittently, and they didn't seem to show much respect to foreigners. For example, when a foreigner wasn't wearing underwear, they would talk to each other about it. There was also a difficulty communicating with foreigners. 3. I wish the owner would try massaging their own staff to see which ones are good and which aren't. The therapist who massaged me today seemed to be doing acupressure massage, not muscle relaxation. They were pressing and pressing, mostly on bones, which was painful and not relaxing at all. 4. The 90-minute massage consisted of 60 minutes of leg massage, and they kept massaging and massaging. They finished the shoulder massage and then continued with the leg massage, repeating the cycle. 5. If you compare the price to other shops with similar external standards, you should go elsewhere. The only two advantages are: 1. Close to the BTS. 2. Clean. **P.S. It might be my fault for visiting on the day the service was the worst since they opened. Most other people's reviews are positive.**"

"The massage technique didn't meet the level of comfort and enjoyment described in Google reviews and influencer posts. Massage therapist #15, in my opinion, didn't provide a very comfortable massage. After removing my toes, he scratched my scalp, which I found extremely uncomfortable 😡😡. In other massage parlors, at least they would scratch through a cloth (and clean my feet beforehand). But this place didn't; he used his bare hands?! He didn't clean my feet before scratching, nor did he clean his hands afterward before proceeding to the next step (massaging my head). Unfortunately, the language barrier prevented us from addressing this issue. Because the massage wasn't as good as I expected, I didn't tip. After going downstairs, the masseuse gave me a sour look and ignored me. After finishing, he just sat on the stairs waiting for me to come out and give him a tip? My friend gave her masseuse a tip, and she smiled happily. My masseuse, because she didn't receive a tip, kept his head down the whole time using his equipment and wouldn't even look at me directly. When we went downstairs, I checked my masseuse's number with the counter again, and he specifically brought it out to show me; it was definitely number 15. Others had given him very high praise, but my experience was completely different. I initially only wanted to give him one star for his attitude and technique because it was incredibly disappointing and uncomfortable… I'm giving him another star because after leaving, when I went to 7-Eleven, I met another employee who, despite not receiving our tips, was willing to recommend good local food. I was very happy. It's a pity I didn't know his number, otherwise I would definitely recommend him highly! 👍🏻 I'll definitely look for him next time I go, and I hope masseuse number 15 won't be unhappy or sullen because I didn't receive a tip. 🙏"

"“Absolutely one of the best stays we’ve ever had in Bangkok! We booked a Deluxe Balcony Room through Agoda at Evershine Place Bangkok, but to our surprise and delight, we were upgraded to a stunning 2-Bedroom Suite. That upgrade completely transformed our trip into a luxury family experience! The suite was massive, beautifully designed, and perfect for families. The living room was spacious and comfortable, the kitchen was fully functional with all amenities, and the bedrooms had amazing city views from the balcony. Waking up to the Bangkok skyline every morning felt incredible. The bathroom with bathtub was exceptional — clean, modern, relaxing, and stocked with all the necessary amenities. After long days exploring Bangkok, soaking in the tub was pure comfort. The entire suite felt more like a premium apartment than a hotel room. The swimming pool area was another highlight — clean, peaceful, and very kid-friendly. My family absolutely loved it. The views from the room and balcony added a luxury touch that made the stay unforgettable. What truly made the experience special was the hospitality and generosity shown by the hotel staff with the complimentary upgrade. Service throughout the stay was smooth, polite, and welcoming. For families looking for space, comfort, views, and value in Bangkok, Evershine Place is a hidden gem. Honestly, this stay exceeded our expectations in every possible way. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bangkok. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 experience — luxury feel at an amazing value!”"

"I was expecting a much more skilled therapist for the price. Sadly disappointed. She also had callus and sharp edges on her nails. Imagine 90 mins of that… The room is extremely cold it’s ridiculous and when I asked for the room temp to become warmer she threw 5kg of towels over my head which felt like I was being suffocated. So I found it hard to relax. They didn’t ask on arrival for focus areas or pressure, another opportunity missed for a better experience. Man sat behind the desk is more interested in his phone and collecting payment rather than serving customers. The only plus is the facilities are clean. I would definitely avoid this place as you’d likely have a 10c better massage anywhere else for a fraction of the cost!"

"I received a massage at Phaya Thai Station before heading to the airport. On July 12th, from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM, I received a 60-minute Thai massage from a short woman, and I gave her a 50 baht tip, asking her to pass it on to the woman at the counter. I really hope she makes sure to pass the tip on to the masseuse who treated me. 😂 I wanted to give it to her directly, but I feel uneasy about it now. Please make sure to pass it on!"

"Disappointing Head Spa Experience in Thailand - Misleading Service & Poor Communication I recently visited this head spa in a Thailand with my husband. While the shop location and cleanliness seemed acceptable, our experience was highly frustrating. Firstly, I booked a 90-minute head spa session online, but upon arrival, I was told I would be charged an extra 150 THB because my hair goes past my shoulder blades. This additional fee was not mentioned anywhere during booking or showing in the website. Secondly, the staff had very limited English comprehension. When asked if I had changed clothes, I clearly said “not yet,” but the therapist still opened the curtain abruptly — leaving my husband and me in an exposed and uncomfortable situation. Most disappointingly, after the session, I realized the actual treatment lasted only about 60 minutes. When I asked the front desk, they claimed the remaining 30 minutes were reserved for hair drying, which was counted as part of the 90-minute service. This was not stated in the service menu, which clearly described “head massage and neck/shoulder therapy – 90 minutes.” I have visited many head spas, and never has blow-dry time been included in the treatment duration. I felt misled and poorly treated. I cannot recommend this place to anyone visiting Thailand."

"A pleasant massage parlor. Extremely quiet and calm. Extremely smiling and helpful staff. Foot massage, and all types of traditional Thai massages. Professional and pampering, quiet and pleasant atmosphere, super reasonable prices. A pleasure, always fun to come back. 17.5.26 A great place that has become a white elephant that is really unpleasant to enter. Sunday evening weekend in a lively area, the place is completely empty. The staff was recently replaced, including the manager. Unpleasant staff who don't know how to relate. It's important to note that we've been there dozens of times and always had a great time. But the last time... a second after we entered, the manager demanded we pay immediately, she was really stressed and very aggressive. The therapists were also very unpleasant. Even though we said we knew the place, they rushed us when I asked to change pants. She followed me to the bathroom and stood to make sure I understood... a terrible feeling. My husband and I told them that their service was unpleasant and from that moment on, the manager really attacked us and asked us to get up from the massage chairs and leave immediately. She returned our payment, of course. I asked her what the name of the place was because I couldn't remember and who I could talk to her manager with. She said she didn't have a manager, even though I know she did and I also know that it's not the only shop in Bangkok. Insincere, violent and unkind attitude. It's a shame for a place that was our home massage almost on a daily basis, we realized that we would never return. The place is empty and it's very clear why. Don't go. Shockingly, the area offers good alternatives.. We were in another and really enjoyed it. They always say that the most important thing is the attitude, which is true. The previous manager and the previous staff were extremely kind and helpful, we always received personal and preferential treatment. I wonder why the entire staff changed. ..The last time we visited the place was a few months ago. We live in Thailand and come to the area a lot. 21.5.25 Let's be precise, there was only one and only one customer on the entrance floor. So what you're saying is not true! Your new staff was stressed and unpleasant to say the least. The new manager is stressed and there was no pressure. And if you really want to wave your security cameras, then take a good look and see that we were there dozens of times in the second half of 2025. We stayed at the hotel right next door and it was very comfortable. Each time I and your staff received a 100thb tip in addition to the cost of the massage. In short, your new staff is disgusting, including the manager of the place. Just don't lie that the place was full. Be precise, it's much more respectful. And you can also admit that the previous staff was amazingly professional, nice and treated the customer perfectly and super politely."

"I am sorry that I have to give a bad review, but this was, hands down, the worst massage I have ever had in Thailand, with the lady only pressing on my spine and bones instead of muscles. It seemed almost that the person giving me the massage had no training or no clue of what she was doing. After 30 minutes of her elbow directly on my vertebrae and random pinching of my neck I had to ask to stop the massage because I was afraid that I was going to get hurt. The lady at the reception did not even care to ask why I was leaving halfway of my massage. This never happened to me before and I am quite puzzled, but definitely I will not return here, as there are so many far better and cheaper options around."

"I absolutely love the massages here! I've been here so many times that almost every time I visit Bangkok, this is one of my must-visit places. The therapists are always excellent—their techniques, pressure, and service are consistently amazing. What touches me the most is how thoughtful they are. Whenever they notice I'm feeling cold or have fallen asleep, they'll quietly bring me an extra blanket and cover me up. It's such a small gesture, but it always makes me feel so cared for 🥰 Every trip, I tell myself I should try a different massage place for a change. But somehow, every time I do, I end up regretting it and wondering why I didn't just come back here instead! 😂"

"I had a great experience at The Zenith Clinic. The staff were warm, welcoming, and professional from the moment I arrived. The clinic was very clean, modern, and comfortable. The doctor took the time to explain everything clearly and answered all of my questions without rushing. I came for laser hair removal, and the treatment was performed carefully with great attention to detail. The staff constantly checked that I was comfortable throughout the session, which made me feel well taken care of. I also appreciated that there was no pressure to purchase additional treatments. Overall, the service exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely come back for my future treatments. Highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for professional and trustworthy aesthetic care in Bangkok."

"I got eyelash extensions today and I have to say I'm super impressed! 🫶✨ From the moment I walked into the salon, the staff were very welcoming and gave me detailed advice on what would suit my eye shape. I opted for a natural, hazy style that slightly opens up the outer corners of my eyes."

"Imagine getting a massage and within 30 mins the masseuse already knows your body better than you do. My job is a demanding one and over the years I’ve suffered from terrible back pain, tight hamstrings, a dodgy shoulder and a stiff neck. All symptoms I thought would be with me forever. Especially due to old age. Oh how I was wrong. After a 2 hour session with a woman called Jaroschan I felt relaxed and rejuvenated. Powerful words I don’t say lightly. I could tell she takes pride in her job and enjoys healing people with the right treatment. I got a feeling she tailors your experience to what your body needs and can handle. While on holiday I went back to her a few times and each time I saw an improvement with my mobility and overall wellbeing. I think what I liked most about my time spent there was the combination of a relaxing massage but with the goal of improving my weak points with her various techniques. The atmosphere is authentic, clean and cosy. I highly recommend this place if you’re after a quality massage that has benefits."

"DISCLAIMER FOR FOREIGNERS: Please read carefully before visiting this place. My partner and I came here looking for a relaxing experience and unfortunately ended up having a very upsetting one. We asked for a couple’s massage in the same room, separated only by a curtain. I want to start by saying that my own experience was actually very good. The man who gave me the Thai massage was professional, skilled, and respectful — if you’re reading this, thank you for your excellent service. However, my partner had a completely different and disturbing experience right next to me. Her masseuse focused for over 10 minutes on an intimate area, even after she asked her to stop and clearly said she did not want to be touched there. Despite this, the masseuse continued with behavior that I won’t describe in detail to avoid this review being flagged or removed. About 15 minutes in, my partner — feeling extremely uncomfortable and on the verge of tears — asked to shorten the session to 30 minutes. She didn’t want to escalate the situation, being in a foreign country, and just wanted to leave calmly. The masseuse left the room in a visibly annoyed manner and returned five minutes later, only to give a very poor 5-minute massage with no pressure or proper technique, just to "complete" the 30 minutes. After my session ended, we went downstairs to pay. A woman (apparently the manager, whom we hadn’t seen before) told us the total would be 850 baht (350 for Thai massage, 500 for oil massage). Given everything that happened, we were still willing to pay my full price and half of my partner’s, out of respect. However, the manager insisted — through Google Translate — that the service was a full one-hour massage and there were no discounts. We explained what had happened, that the session was cut short and deeply uncomfortable. Still, she kept repeating, robotically, “Pay full price. Pay full price.” She even threatened to call the police if we didn’t pay. It became clear she had no concern for our well-being or experience — only about getting our money. So we paid the full amount just to leave the place and put this behind us. We absolutely LOVE Thailand — this is my first time here, and most people have been warm and kind. But this specific place left us shocked and disappointed. These two women took advantage of tourists in a way that was deeply disrespectful and upsetting. We strongly urge others to avoid this place if you want a safe, respectful, and relaxing experience."

"Don’t go! Massage is shit! The worst of all. They are just caressing you, no pressure Jude side light touches like they are your intimate partner. Not professional! They sway their bodies pretending to put pressure. No matter how many times I ask she never listens. 200THB is not worth the trip. I was okay with the horrible massage. What made this experience so low class was when at the end they begged for tips. So low class, no manners. Won’t even let up go until you promise then. Don’t do Thai massage, since owner is downstairs, they don’t know what these low class ladies are doing to customers since they take you upstairs. In front of owner, they don’t beg for tips or hold you back. The worst was the old lady that sat there, won’t give you privacy to chance and just waiting on tip. I can understand them, just can’t speak it. Honestly save your money and time. And the owner of the shop, if you are reading this. Keep a good watch on the old ladies that bring customer upstairs for Thai massage. I will give you the benefit of the doubt that you don’t know. But if you do know and allow this behaviour, honestly, very disgusting. You might as well call this a happy ending massage. Dirty old ladies, low class with no respect. I will never recommend."

"Boutique, Cozy yet mighty and super advanced pain management clinic in Bangkok! I’ve been undergoing chronic pain treatments clinics/hospitals/holistic-health across continents; Boston, Seattle, Singapore, yet no one could cure from the root causes like ReHappy!! Chronic pain is a journey and my heart goes to all the brave souls who are living with physical pains. I’m with you when pain wakes you up at nights and you have important days waiting next.. series of treatments, dosages of pills yet still no lights at the end of the tunnel.. Pains is NOT an in-borne condition, there is a way to cure/handle/manage. I hope this could be your hopeful massage! It is indeed a long journey with disciplines, acceptance and faith. Trust that you can live well again and be Re-Happy again.. guess that is how Dr.Wan named her clinic and it lives up the name. I was lucky to find her and her crews; super professional, a one-stop shop for pains, and no-frills. 100% recommended"

"I can only say that my massage was excellent, firm, showing clear evidence of professional training and delivered in a very pleasant way. The space I was in could almost be described as opulent, as can the entryway and waiting area where my wife and I were greeted by pleasant staff, offered refreshing drinks and led to our massage spaces. It should be noted that not all massage spaces are created equal within the premises, as can be seen from the photos. However, my wife was also with her space, one of the curtained off areas, even though it was not so luxurious."

"IMPRESSIVE MASSAGE SHOP! Decided to give them a try as they opened til late on our first night and it was the best decision ever! They are reasonably priced amongst all the shops in the vicinity. But all their masseurs are super skillful and that makes them the most valuable for your money! Did several Thai massage and foot massages throughout our 3 days in BKK. We had different masseurs every time we went but all of them were awesome and we didn't have to worry about getting the right person at all. Pressure exerted were all on point at the right spot with the right force, strokes are done the same on both sides of your body so you know they're well trained. Even my 14yo who doesn't usually like massages was also enjoying himself! Do give them a try if you're in the area, definitely no regrets!"

"Great location and facilities, but poor service due to tight security. When I come to the club, I could easily check-in with my membership card and it is fast and easy. After the check-in, I must exchange my card for the wristband to excess the locker. When I want to hop out, just for few minutes, and hop into the club, I have to spell my name for the receptionists to type into the computer for check- in again. They totally ignore my wristband. I have read the club-house rule and it tells me that I could use my wristband for getting in and out of the club. The manager, the foreigner one, makes his own rules and it is the only branch that treats the customers poorly. By the way, there is a surveillance camera right at the check-in location and it is there for nothing. He is afraid that the non-member would use the wristband to get into the club. And all a sudden, I felt like being a suspect by default, and no longer a customer of the club. I think it is about time to leave is hostile club and seek out the more friendly one. On 6 September 2019 I hoped they would use their sound judgment instead of being so rigid holding on to the rules. My foot toe was injured and I wrapped it with bandage. I put on a pair of slippers to exercise on my upper parts of the body using the machines available at many outlets of the Virgin Fitness. The only outlet I had trouble with is the same that I had trouble with it before. This time they were quoting the rules that I had to put on a pair of sport shoes to use the club machines for safety reasons. I told them that I could use the machines with enough safety because I didn't have to use my feet. They didn't get it and kept pounding on my nerves referring to the club rules. I expected them to help me on my work out telling me how to play it safe while I was having the foot injury and not to tell my to quit on my exercise like this. I have been with this club house for so long and the most unpleasant experience kept coming from this branch at the Siam Discovery alone. Why don't they act with the service mind like the other branches?"

"During the oil massage, they made me take off my underwear. During the oil massage, the male masseuse subtly brushed my anus and scrotum, which felt strange, but I assumed it was normal for it to happen. My hand brushed against his private parts, so I thought it must have been an accident. But then, while I was lying on my back (my private parts were completely exposed), he started massaging my nipples strangely and then suddenly started massaging my anus. When I said, "No, no, no touching," he brushed my private parts and said, "Here, no?" From that moment on, I was convinced that his intentions were unhealthy. I went thinking it was a healthy massage parlor, but I was assaulted and it really sucks. I was scared so I left. I hope you don't experience the same thing..."

"The price was cheap but not worth it. The masseuse was lazy, and the female owner disrespected customers. I'm not a Western customer; I'm just stating the facts. A week ago, I booked a two-hour Thai massage via WhatsApp. When I arrived in Thailand, I went to this massage parlor. I confirmed the two-hour Thai massage with the female owner at the counter. After the 45-minute massage, the masseuse told me it was finished and to wait for my three friends outside. I saw a young man waiting for his Thai massage and asked me to change. This young man went into the room for his massage. While I was changing, the masseuse rushed in and told me it would be changed to a one-hour foot massage. I was undressing! The management, owner, and staff of this shop could arbitrarily change my booking and give my seat to their young, regular customers. Furthermore, recalling that while the masseuse was massaging me, several regular customers appeared, and the masseuse walked away to talk to them. I feel this kind of management is disrespectful to customers. On WhatsApp Booking.com was pointless. They booked a short stay and then asked me to change services, and even wanted me to give up my seat for their regular customers. This was my third time visiting this massage parlor. The first two times were excellent. On September 5th, 2025, I visited again and was extremely disappointed by the service. They were very apologetic, asking me what I meant by "respect"—how to show respect to a customer? I was speechless. I strongly advise against visiting this massage parlor."

"My first time getting an office syndrome massage and hot compress massage. I was very impressed. Parking was easy to find, and importantly, the shop was very clean.

"There are many restaurants in the complex. There's no parking, but you can stop by to pick up or order food for takeout. There are tables available for waiting while your food is being prepared. Restaurants provide hand sanitizer, and vendors wear masks. Scan-for-pay is convenient and secure. Many restaurants participate in the government's co-payment scheme, and many offer delivery services. Some restaurants in the complex offer free delivery in nearby areas. The atmosphere is pleasant and airy. When I visited, it was around 2 PM, and there were very few people. Social distancing was being maintained. I stopped by to support the businesses and enjoy a delicious meal. Initially, I got lost following Google Maps, so I called the restaurant I had ordered from in advance. The complex is located opposite the red brick condo. Next time, I'll use the pin on the map to make sure I don't get lost."

"While walking through the streets of Bangkok, I accidentally stumbled upon this fantastic massage place—and I’m so glad I did! Having experienced massages at 5-6 different places throughout my trip in Thailand, I can confidently say this was one of the best. For just 500 baht per hour, I received an incredibly relaxing and professional massage that left me feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. The therapists here truly know their craft, using the perfect balance of pressure and technique to relieve tension and stress. The atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and welcoming, making it even easier to unwind. Unlike some of the more touristy spots, this place had a more authentic and calming vibe, which made the experience even better. If you’re in Bangkok and looking for a high-quality massage at an affordable price, I highly recommend giving this place a try. Sometimes, the best experiences come when you least expect them!"

"450 baht for 90 minutes. The reviews said it was 350 baht, so I guess they raised the price. Even Unchan Massage in the CP Tower right in the middle of Silom charges 400 baht. I can't believe they charge this price at a shabby shop in this pure local area, haha. The massage itself was decent, so I gave a 100 baht tip. The problem is that the price is excessive, the owner is curt and unfriendly, and outside noise comes right in. For the first 30 minutes, because of the excavator noise, I thought I was getting a massage at a construction site. Later on, there was the sound of motorcycles passing by, etc. The environment is bad in many ways. It is not a place tourists would go out of their way to visit. Not recommended."

"I was very impressed! I tried the Ear Spa for the first time at the Phaholyothin Soi 2 branch. The shop is clean, the atmosphere is quiet and very private. The staff are very polite and have a very gentle touch. I almost fell asleep during the ear cleaning session. The head, neck, shoulder and back massage had just the right amount of pressure, which really helped reduce my fatigue. It's conveniently located not far from the Ari area. If you're looking for a place to relax your mind, I highly recommend it. I will definitely come back again!"

"Put this on your list of things to do when in Bangkok! I always make sure to visit this spa when I come back to visit. It's just a short walk from the sky train, but tucked away from all the busy-ness of the city. If you get here early you can grab a bite in their delicious on-site restaurant. The whole experience from beginning to end is pure peace and relaxation and the staff is so warm and welcoming. The therapists are very experienced and make you feel comfortable and safe. There's an extensive number of different treatments they offer to accommodate your needs, but anything you choose will be a pleasant experience and you won't want to leave! I definitely recommend Gaya to anyone struggling to choose from the plethora of spas in this city for the best "Thai spa experience." <3"

"After returning to our hotel, the ladies decided to get a manicure and found a nearby place called Siam Heng Heng Thai Massage. At first, I really didn’t want to give this place a 1-star review, but there’s a reason behind it. It was already nighttime, and we had a scheduled late dinner at our hotel. When we found this parlor, we clearly asked if they could cater to both my wife and Hazel at the same time, and the lady (the one holding the placard in the photo) confidently said yes. Because of that, we already planned our time knowing that if both could be done together, we’d still make it for our dinner. So I went back to the hotel to relax while waiting for them. Not long after, my wife called me, and I could tell something was wrong. She told me that despite what they said earlier, they only had one person available to do manicures, meaning they had to take turns. Hazel was already frustrated, and rightly so they shouldn’t have said yes if they couldn’t handle two clients at once. Yes, we could have done it the next day, but the issue is that we planned everything around their confirmation. If we had known they couldn’t cater both, we would have just cancelled it and saved our time for dinner. When I went back to check, it was already late and because of the delay, we almost missed our dinner. Thankfully, the hotel still accommodated us, but we only had around five minutes to eat. It was such a disappointing experience. Both the lady with the placard and the one in the short black polo shirt were the ones involved. Really unfortunate, because if they had just been honest from the start, everything would have gone smoothly. 😞"

"The salon makes a pleasant first impression: the clean premises, neat interior, and well-maintained space create an atmosphere of comfort and relaxation. However, behind the superficial appeal lie problems with the service. Guests are greeted at the entrance by a receptionist—correct and polite, but without much engagement or interest. The massage therapists' service also leaves much to be desired. Until you approach the treatment room, the staff offers virtually no attention. Their courtesy is formal, lacking the warm welcome for which Thai service is renowned. I booked a Shiatsu massage with the optional herbal compresses for an additional fee. Such extras typically extend the session, but here the total duration remained the same—an hour and a half, including all options. The massage itself was mediocre: the movements were repetitive, with no relief from tension or any sense of restorative effect. It was more like a light oil rub than a therapeutic treatment. The price, however, was significantly higher than the level of service provided. If I were the management, I would recommend sending the staff for additional training in trigger point techniques and the basics of lymphatic drainage. Unfortunately, this first experience with Thai massage in Thailand was disappointing—and, surprisingly, inferior in quality to the treatments offered in Moscow salons."

"Came here for a 1.5 hr massage before shopping. The location is inside Glow Hotel, we went to the 7th floor and the recep brought us to the 6th floor. It was a happy hour promotion at about 6pm, 700 baht for 1.5 hrs Thai Balm Massage, while the 1.5 hrs Thai Massage with Oil is 1100 baht. Not crowded, but very professional service. My masseuse, Daeng, brought me to a room with abt 7 other beds separated by curtains, was the only person, quiet aside frm faint traffic noises outside. Am glad that I told Daeng to be "soft"! Back massage was normal, but the legs felt thoroughly relaxed. Ended with a hot compress all over the body at no extra charge. Would recommend for a peaceful, relaxing and professional massage service nearby Platinum Mall"

"This service does not even deserve 1 star. I booked my session through ClassPass and arrived exactly on time. However, the studio told me they had "no slots" available. To make matters worse, the staff asked me, "Why didn't you call to check first?" This is completely unacceptable. ClassPass explicitly states that users should not call the studio directly. It is Sunday, and I had to clear my busy schedule specifically for this appointment. My time is precious. The studio offered zero compensation and unacceptably just told me to go to another branch the next day. Is this service u expected?"

"Let me preface this by saying I've been to this massage parlor more than 10 times, and I've always been happy with the service. However, this will be my last time here. Normally, I request a "neck, shoulder, and back" massage, and the parlor always uses oil to release tension. This time, despite clearly stating that I wanted a "neck, shoulder, and back" massage, the masseuse didn't use any oil at all. The result was a massage that felt like a regular Thai massage. Only a tiny amount of balm was applied in the last 5 minutes, making the massage very stiff – which is not what I wanted. What was even worse was the way the counter staff handled it. I asked if they usually use oil for neck, shoulder, and back massages, and the employee replied, "Yes." I then explained that the masseuse didn't use any oil this time, but I was asked, "Did you inform the masseuse?" I had told her from the beginning, and the counter staff even reminded the masseuse again that it was a "neck, shoulder, and back" massage before she went upstairs. Furthermore, when I was paying, the counter staff claimed that the oil had been mixed into the balm, which I can confidently say is not true. I've been coming here frequently, since Nuch was still the masseuse, and each time I received a full back and arm massage with oil. I am extremely disappointed. My aunt and younger brother used to frequent this place, but after this, our whole family has stopped coming. Anyone considering this place should think carefully, because you might pay a higher price for a massage but receive a completely different service for a lower price. :) For anyone considering this place, you may end up paying for one type of massage but receiving a completely different service instead!"
