If you go out your building to the right towards the Holiday Inn, there are 2 nice spa closeby. One is across Silom from your building, called Mulberry Spa and the other is same side as your building, but I don't know the name. It is up front in a nice set of beige building with food and shops in them. You can't miss it.

The spa you are referring to above is called Silom Bodyworks and is located just near the Holiday Inn. I have been to both above but find Mulberry Spa is similiar to the experience of Kathie wherby I came away with bruises from a medium massage. The girls at Silom Bodyworks are always helpful and very reasonably priced. Last time I went I had torrential rain come down as my treatment finished and the owner went to his car ,picked me up and drove me back to my hotel. So kind and considerate, especially considering my hotel was 20 mins walk away. The top hotels ,in general have lovely spa treatment rooms though I do think we pay for the ambience as such and the convenience of just throwing on a gown and catching an elevator downstairs. We all slowly return to our rooms, sleepy though refreshed and not covered in perspiration from walking /cabbing it back - that is a big advantage. Spas I have visited include Oriental,Hyatt, Royal Orchid, Shangri La, Dusit Thani, Sheraton Grande, Westin, Watergate, Silom Sofitel, Plaza Athenee, Marriot etc and I often visit small cheaper places such as those mentioned above, Gallery, Amarin Plaza, regular haunts down SukhumvitRd near Asoke/ Nana BTS. Any new suggestions I am always eager to hear about.
