Bangkok Massage- The Scoop
 

Planning on visiting one or two of the following spas for while in Bangkok. Does anybody have feedback on the following and trying to determine which has the nicest surroundings.

1) DIVANA MASSAGE- on sukhumvit soi 25
2) FACE SPA
3) SAREERAROM TROPICAL SPA- sukhumit soi 55
4) Ruen-Nuad Massage

Please let me know which one is the best to wind down from the bangkok heat and congestion. Thanks in advance.

Can't comment on Divana, as they lost my reservations despite confirming and corressponding for over a month. :-[

Instead we went to Spa on 9th. I'll have to say it is the nicest of all the spas I've tried in US, Japan Thailand and Asia. Gorgeous traditional Thai decor, best massage & spa treatments, nicest employees, best snacks and excellent price.

I can look up the contact info later if you're interested.

Face is lovely. The treatment rooms are traditional teak buildings. It feels very "Thai" as opposed to being luxe as the hotel spas tend to be. The prices are also good. It's a very small place, just two treatment rooms, each can hold a couple.

yes, what is the location for spa on 9th. It is in a hotel?

I just read something about DULAYA SPA on sukhumvit. any scoop on this one?

Here is the address, I think I can find a web site somewhere

The spa is in a free standing 2 story building behind high walls in a soi off Sukhumvit. It is a beautiful building with wood floors, waterfalls, flowers and big windows looking out to the gardens. Classic Thai furnishings, and gorgeous bathrooms off each treatment room (I took a picture of them!). They have a full menu of treatments and usually give a discount if you order a package.

Here is a set of photos of Spa on 9th, but unfortuneately the text is in Japanese!

What you consider a "good price" for a Spa in Bangkok?

The Dulaya spa is lovely. I believe it's near the Davis hotel off Sukumvit 25 or so. Great treatment rooms, reasonable prices. They have a website...
