Twenty-one floors up from the suit-populated, crystal chandelier-topped lobby of the swanky Peninsula Hotel (home of the pricey Pen-Top martini), lies this sophisticated, labyrinthine spa adored by the fabulous set for its superior service, inviting swimming pool with 5th Avenue views, workout facilities, open-air patio, sauna, and steam and wet rooms.
Great Space and great massage
by DFernandez at Citysearch
Staff are very friendly and helpful. No need to hurry once your massage has finished. I went to the relaxation area where I had my tea and listened to relaxing music for an hour and was not rushed out.
Awesome Massage!
by JasonLedoux at Citysearch
The overall experience is great. Wait until you get to enjoy the relaxation room after your massage. Its pure bliss.......
- Pros: a nice overall experience
- Cons: you have to pay a little more but its worth it
Great new spa after rennovation
by judyc03 at Citysearch
I visited the spa back in 2007 and it looked dated even though the services was great. Now it looks totally new and modern. I love everthing from the reception area to the bathroom/locker rooms. Even the staff members look refreshed with the new uniforms. The prices have gone up but I think it's well worth it. My only gripe is the VERY uncomfortable sales pitch after my massage. Why would I buy body scrub and lotion ? That's the reason why I only gave it a 4 star instead of 5.
- Pros: Spa looks amazing
- Cons: Why buy products after a relaxing massage?
