The spa positions itself at the upper end of the market, with pricing and presentation to match — treatment rooms are notably well-appointed, and the overall interior makes a strong first impression from the moment guests arrive.

Reviews from Google
Truly wonderful experience This is a higher end spa with higher prices and definitely higher end decor AND massage / treatment quality We booked a 3 hour package including 3 different treatments, and wach one was executed to perfection The therapists were also super attentive, when I coughed once my therapists noticed that I was cold and reduced the AC speed and provided additional blankets immediately You fill ina questionnaire regarding your before the massage and get some snacks and tea before and after your treatments, so that you start and end your stay here super relaxed. Overall a place that is worth the higher price tag
A very relaxing place. The masseuses were very professional. Need to book an appointment. We booked for 1.5 hour session. We went 15 minutes before schedule and were given forms to fill and dessert to eat. Ended up 2 hours there as there are pre and post massage desserts.
We had a disappointing premium experience to this branch during our Chiang Mai trip. We booked high-priced 120-minute treatments · (120 MIN) AROMA OIL MASSAGE + THAI HERBAL BALL MASSAGE - 2,780 THB · (120 MIN) THAI MASSAGE + AROMA OIL MASSAGE - 2,420 THB Unfortunately, the quality did not match the price. The therapists seemed to be merely going through the motions. Despite my clear requests to focus on specific areas of tension, these concerns were not attended to. My wife had a similarly poor experience with her treatment. While the environment, refreshments, and free pickup service were good, the core massage service was poor. Massage Quality: ⭐️⭐️ Facilities & Service: +⭐️ Total: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tips for Visiting Wellness & Spas
Communicate Pressure Preferences
Thai massage can be intense. Say 'bao bao' for lighter pressure or 'nak nak' for harder. A good therapist will check in, but don't hesitate to speak up — suffering in silence defeats the purpose.
Book Longer Sessions
A 60-minute massage is fine, but 90 or 120 minutes allows the therapist to work thoroughly. The price difference is often only 200–400 THB for an extra hour — worth it for a deeper, more relaxing experience.
Try a Herbal Compress
Add a herbal compress (luk pra kob) to your massage — steamed bundles of lemongrass, turmeric, and camphor pressed into sore muscles. It's deeply therapeutic and uniquely Thai. Usually just 200–300 THB extra.
