They are amazing. I've been here several times to just get some tension out from my shoulders and whatever type of massage you choose, you'll be beaten to the point where you'll feel good. The place is clean, dark, and quiet. The only thing I don't care for is the smell of the oils they use but who am I to say. You'll knead to come here. ;) read more

$6 to Leave a Tip?! I really wanted to like this spa. It has great reviews, a convenient location... what could go wrong? Well, apparently everything at the front desk. When I walked in, the receptionist just stared at me like I was interrupting her very important work of doing absolutely nothing. No "hi," no "welcome," not even a nod. Not the warmest start, but okay, I came for relaxation, not charm school. Thankfully, my massage therapist was a dream. I was ready to float out the door until I reached the front desk again. I told the receptionist I didn't have cash for a tip and asked if I could Venmo. Nope. Then came the kicker: you can use a credit card but there's a $6 flat fee. Not 6%. Six actual, American dollars. For a $20 tip, that's a 30% surcharge! For comparison, most businesses charge a modest 2-4% fee. This felt less like a tip and more like a penalty. Another woman checking out at the same time didn't have cash either and got the same spiel. She sighed, shrugged, and paid the fee too...misery loves company, I guess. To top it off, once I paid, the receptionist didn't even say thank you. She just grimaced. Bottom line: Fantastic massage, but the front desk vibe and tip gouging left a sour taste. I came in to relieve tension, not pick up more. Won't be back. read more

The best massages!! I often get the signature massage which is a combo of Thai and Swedish. All of the therapists are great!

I had a great couples massage for my fiancé's birthday! Both masseuses were skillful and incredibly talented. Plus, we were treated to a literal gift, chocolate afterwards. A hidden gem in town at the great location near Louis Vuittong, Tiffany and Co , Central Park !!!!! read more

1.We had a couples massage there today and it was outstanding. Easy to book, started on time and went the full time. Excellent massage therapist, comfy room with good atmosphere and location. Comfortable larger table. I was extremely happy with this place and I have massages everywhere and this was a top massage experience ever. read more

I've been going here for a couple of years now and This place has been great. The woman at the desk is absolutely the nicest woman. Always so welcoming and after always tries to help keep the relaxation going. Can't say enough about this place. read more

Don't usually write reviews, but this was such a uniquely awful experience that I feel compelled. Hands down the worst massage I've ever received. I paid for a 60 minute treatment and received 50 minutes. They require a full body covering with a disgusting pilled sheet which is more like a well used blanket. I asked for a deep tissue massage and the masseuse appeared to have no training as the experience was more akin to an awkward petting. Not once did the masseuse ask for feedback during the massage. I paid the host $120 and received a smirk as if I was being cheap and she didnt say a word as a left. Not only do I regret the measly tip I left, but I feel robbed of the $120 and 50 minutes of my time. Yuk! read more

Got a Groupon for a 60min massage of my choice and was able to easily call in and get an appointment for a convenient time. Based on Yelp reviews I asked to have Yuri, since there was a bunch of reviews that mentioned her. When you go in, it's a very zen like atmosphere and the front desk receptionists are super friendly. I was immediately given ginger tea and also a basket with slippers to change into. While I sat with my tea, someone asked what type of massage I wanted and offered 3 different scents/oils. I went with a deep tissue because of all the knots I have and opted for the lavender scent I believe. After sipping my tea, Yuri greeted me and took me to the room. I told Yuri where I was carry some tension and she went to work. She was amazing with working out the knots and kinks, so many that I didn't even know I had. She applied just the right amount of firm pressure that I needed without me wincing in pain. When she massaged my legs, it was so good that I started drifting off into sleep. That's how relaxing it was!! The scalp massage was also amazing. The entire massage was just what I needed. I left feeling like all of my kinks were gone and also feeling super relaxed and refreshed. When I left, I was given more ginger tea and a warm towel and didn't feel rushed to leave. I even bought a discounted voucher for my next visit. read more

I really like this spa. I've had several massages and all were well done. My only complaint is the background music. The same piece of music is played over and over again. For someone like me who enjoys music, this is very irritating. If I was an employee and had to listen all day my head would explode. For the sake of your customers and staff, please, please improve the background experience. read more

It's been at least three years since my last facial but I received a gift certificate to this place as was looking forward to some pampering. This spa is not a high end, change into a robe spa. Nor is it a walk into the street level basic spa. This is somewhere in the middle. They use Dermalogica products and they don't try to upsell you like some places. I had a truly great facial with a strong neck and shoulder massage. My facialist was Yuri. They have a Groupon for new clients so grab one while you can! read more

Have you ever left a spa after a massage and immediately thought to yourself "I need a massage"? I came here for a prenatal massage last week. It was a gift (a groupon) and was my first prenatal massage. Whenever I had seen images of prenatal massage or heard my friends raving about them, they mentioned that while laying on their side for the massage there was a support pillow placed under their belly. No support pillow here. Although I wanted stronger pressure on my back, whenever the masseuse applied any pressure my belly was being pushed into the table. While laying on my left side I ended up wrapping my right arm around myself to brace myself and support my own belly.. making it pretty hard to get comfortable and to relax. Vice versa when I was asked to lay on my right side. As for the massage itself, it did absolutely nothing for me. I found it really unnecessary for him focus like 8 minutes on each calf then 10 seconds on the foot. All of the motions on my legs and back were like smooth sweeping motions. Not my type of massage, glad I didn't pay for it. He asked me to lay on my back then he stood behind me and started on my collarbone - didn't feel good. He started rubbing my temples which also did not feel good at all, it just felt like he was messing up my hair. I kept trying to find some redeeming factor when he started doing something different, thinking okay now this part is gonna be good. Nope. read more

Great service, nice decorative. The deep tissue massage is really good for my body. I m enjoy and really sure to coming back here soon.

Love this spa! I had to call many places (as many as 6) to finally find this place and get an appointment that wasn't three months out. They were able to book my groupon massage that same week and on the weekend at that! I was greeted with ginger tea and a warm towel upon arrival. I switched out of my shoes and I was ready for my massage. The massage was good. I felt a lot of my knots kneaded out however the male masseuse seemed distracted at times, spending 10+ minutes on my leg..... I had to say something to get him to move on and focus on other areas. Other than that the massage went great and I could consider coming back. They have a deal where if you purchase a package of at least 4 massages, you can get them for around $75 a massage. read more

The space seems peaceful and they bring you hot tea and a warm towel before and after the session...but...that just doesn't cut it. My partner and I each had coupons for massage. I had a foot massage, she had a Thai massage. Ironically we had similar experiences from our different...practitioners. We just felt like they had no training. There was no symmetry for what was done on one side of the body and the other. The woman who worked on me didn't speak English so she really had a hard time understanding when I said something was uncomfortable; she was stroking the top of my foot repeatedly and it didn't hurt like I needed to scream, it was just weird. I've had a lot of foot massages...I had to check to see before I left if she actually did have feet because it was just a really unusual thing to do to one's foot. Where we live you can get a Thai or foot massage for $25/50-minutes. And they're good! This was more than that even with the coupon. read more

This place is a bomb. I'm a huge massage fan and have been trying out so many different places, all the way from a place in chinatown to exhale/ la prairie spa. After all those tryouts, this place has become my go-to place. They have an amazing deal when you buy their massage packets. All the staffs are super professional and give amazing massages. The venue is always so clean and not crowded. No extra unnecessary frills. I normally get a 1hr deep tissue massage. Their prenatal massages helped tremendously with my pregnancy as well. Highly recommend! read more

Had such as great experience. Please go treat yourself to this place you won't regret it! I cashed in on a groupon gifted to me for my birthday and had an 1 hr Thai massage and spa mani & pedi. Each service was attentive, relaxing, and not rushed! Complimentary ginger tea was given upon arrival and during my pedicure. Great service! read more

Got to try out this spa located in the heart of midtown Manhattan (next to the Chanel store). Make sure you call in ahead and make a reservation before you head to the spot. Once you arrive you are welcomed with a warm cup of ginger tea and room temp water. They also have a survey to make sure you are ok to receive the best service; type of massage (light, medium, or hard) what type of allergies you might have, any specific pain, any surgery you had in the past. The rooms are beautifully decorated with Thai arts and sculptures. Music is very relaxing for a spa and soothes the ear. I had Yuri as my masseuse, she was very good. The massage was very relaxing and attentive to detail 1hr passed by so fast i wished I had another 30 min lol. Definitely recommend this place and I'm definitely coming back. I also see they have a Yelp Coupon for first timers so don't forget to use it. read more

I recently tried this Spa and it was a good experience - as you step off the elevator -it is a relaxing and welcoming presence. They are accommodating and very pleasant. The location is clean and I would go back. The massage was good and they were attentive to the pressure being used and your overall comfort. I recommend 5th Avenue Thai Spa read more

I had a great classic Swedish massage here. Very affordable spa for New York City. Clean and professional environment.

I love  Fifth Avenue Thai Spa! Great massage, very relaxing atmosphere and extremely friendly staff. I agree with one of the other reviews - their massage packages are a great deal. Very professional and skillful massage. read more

Moderate... Would give 3 1/2 stars if that was an option. Beautiful ambiance.! But the ENERGY is Off in that place. Did not feel a welcoming vibration. The tea was nice...but the towel was cold. I am a massage connoisseur- especially of deep tissue, back walking and Thai. Been all over. I asked for a mix of deep tissue and Thai.. While it was relaxing. The male therapist didn't really get in there and the stretching was NOT at ALL adequate. In addition...massage oils should be specific to client needs. So while they have choices- they did NOT have an option that Specifically worked on muscles- those always have a slightly minty scent and arnica for repair...This allows the therapist to work Synergistically with the pressure to get muscle and knot release more effectively. The best Thai massage I've had was at Siya spa....MERCY!! I saw Angels after those massages! read more

Not the best traditional Thai massage I received but still very good! I love Thai massages for all the hardcore pressures and stretchings! I had Yuri (?)Yumi (?) work on me and she was awesome! Wish she would've work on my foot bit more but i guess I'll just have to get a food massage separately. Traditional Thai massage doesn't usually take place on a massage table since masseuse usually go on top of the person laying down and put pressure with their feet. But this place had massage tables and didn't use their feet. Still very good~ i recommended this place to my bff. Especially they're having Groupon deals right now. read more

I had a good massage, the pressure was right for me and the place is clean. However I think the front desk receptionist can improve. When it came time to paying, I added a 20% tip however I was charged an additional $10 because the receptionist claims she heard me wrong. I asked for a cash refund but she couldn't refund cash, instead she voided my transaction and then charged me again. So basically I was charged twice today for my massage, and I have to wait to be refunded which my bank told me could take up to 30 days. I really want to like this place, but I left feeling incredibly annoyed. read more

Love there couples room. I have a massage with my cousin. We both loved it. Will try to go with my husband. These place is clean and really big for NYC. Great location as well. read more

LOVED this place! Found it on Groupon and I was really impressed. Is a beautiful, serene space that feels like a high end spa. They give you ginger tea and a moist towel when you come in, and I thought the way they handled Groupon/promotions was actually classy. She checked us in and politely asked if we'd be using any promotions, we said yes we have Groupons and she took down the details quickly before we went into our massage room. I felt it was an extra nice touch to not have to deal with that little detail after my massage. My boyfriend had a Thai massage and I had a deep tissue. We both thought the massages were EXCELLENT. The therapists are clearly well trained. Mine found knots I didn't even know I had and really worked them out. It was one of the better massages I've had, and I have had quite a few :) When we checked out, they offered us a very nice discount on our next service if we purchased now. I was happy to do so and look forward to returning! I left feeling like I was floating on a cloud - seriously! read more

Very nice and clean spa. The receptionist was very sweet and accommodating. Cindy gave me such an incredible massage and always checked in to see if the pressure was ok. Removed 2 stars because I paid for a 90 minute massage and got only a 70 minute massage. I asked if they time you from the moment you enter the spa or the moment you begin the massage. They said from the minute you walk into the massage room. But if that's the case, I'm still missing 19 minutes worth of massaging as it only took me 30 seconds to get undressed. Would only return if they guarantee me the correct amount of time I pay for. read more

4*. Solid spot for a massage. The decor of this place is LOVELY- wooden carvings, paneling, sculptures, and all things Thai. You feel like you've been transported from the concrete jungle to the Southeast Asian oasis. Groupon was accepted without issue + tax & tip (added-on after your session)- just to keep expectations in check before going in. The first time calling to make a reservation was tough because it was around Valentine's Day week so they were overwhelmingly busy. The receptionist sounded stressed and quickly said she would call me back (she didn't), which was fine because a later appointment worked out better anyway. I called again a few days later to make an appt on a later date. There was availability and they were willing to accommodate. The Groupon allowed for you to choose any type of massage you'd like, so I opted for the Deep Tissue since I had some serious knots that needed to be addressed (was so tempted to try the Thai Massage, but I suppose another time...) Its on the 4th Fl of an elevator building sandwiched between Burberry and Chanel...on a clearly fancy block. When you arrive into the check-in area, ginger tea and a warm towel is served to you as you change out of your shoes into slippers (aka old navy flip flops lol). You can select the fragrance of your massage oil too- that was pretty awesome. My masseuse was strong, as I'd requested. She was professional and the entire massage was on point because she was keen on working out the kinks on my back/shoulders. This spa has got such a zen quality to it that I was dreading leaving and re-entering civilization again.. lol....Wouldn't mind coming back :) read more

This place is straight up beautiful. Truly authentic. You walk in and you are greeted, and are handed a warm towel and (amazing) ginger tea. They are very professional and nice, and the massage rooms are the most beautiful massage rooms I have ever seen! I meant to take a picture, oops! The massage therapist I had was very good. I tried a Thai massage for the first time, and would highly recommend if you weren't stiff and tight like I currently am. After your massage you get another cup of tea and are thanked in Thai for your tip! I look forward to going back for a regular deep tissue soon! read more

Nice people and great massage therapists. Unfortunately, as much as it pains me to have to write a critical review, I have to report that the head support on the massage table broke suddenly. Obviously this could have caused severe harm. Anyway, the massage was otherwise great, the people courteous, and I may still come back. But felt I needed to make management and other customers aware. read more

This was such a disappointing experience. My girlfriend took me to get a manicure and pedicure as a surprise. This place looked like it could deliver. It was nice, clean, serene, gentle Asian music playing, expensive massage chairs, etc. The woman doing my feet seemed to be doing a good job but I noticed she never touched the heel of my foot. I didn't say anything because I'm not a pedicure expert so I just figured she was going to address it later in the process. But...once she put the final coat on my toes she pulled my pants legs down and had me get up so I could get my manicure, I sensed something was wrong. She did a decent job with the manicure and then put me under the dryer thingy for both my feet and my hands. At this point I got a little concerned because I may not be a foot expert but I figured the heel would need addressing before this process. I officially knew something was wrong when she handed me my shoes and socks to put on. I looked down at my heel and all I could see was dead skin. So much in fact, all I had to do was rub it with my finger and it would come off. I called my girlfriend over and asked her, "is this right?" Needless to say she was PISSED. She addressed the lady with this and was told, "we don't have the razor for the heel." The lady then came over to me to say the same thing and then asked if I wanted to put lotion on my heel. HUH??? She didn't even offer to take the dead skin off. Like I said, at this point I'm totally baffled as to what I'm supposed to do so I told her if lotion was my only option then go for it. So, she proceeded to rub lotion over the dead skin on my heel. Here is the kicker, when my girlfriend went to pay she was then asked about a $20 tip! Are you serious???!!! I've only had my feet done at a spa maybe a few other times but I've never heard of doing 75% of a person's foot and then expecting them to be satisfied with that and paying and tipping you for it too! Needless to say, that didn't go down and we walked out totally dissatisfied and disgusted. I tried to make my girlfriend feel better because she did purchase this pampering for me, but she was still pissed that her gift wasn't executed with more professionalism and courtesy. See, this is the thing everyone else beside Black Afrikan people will NOT understand. Whenever you hear about a business or service and you get these rave reviews about how great it is, you can just go by the reviews and know that 9 times out of 10 if you go to that same business and service you will experience that same treatment if you are not a Black Afrikan person. BUT...if you are...when you look at the reviews you have to first factor into your decision process how many Black Afrikan people have experienced the service because if you are naive enough to think you can just walk into the same place as anyone else and be treated the same you will be in for a rude awakening. It sucks that in this day and age the color of our skin is used as a license to disrespect us when we are holding the same if not MORE money than anyone else when we enter into an establishment. Maybe we need to go back to the days when a business clearly stated NO BLACKS ALLOWED. It may be backwards, racist and crude but at least there is no false advertising. You have to laugh to keep from crying. TWO THUMBS WAY DOWN TO THIS BUSINESS read more

I purchased a package through Groupon, wanted to try out this place. I'm always a fan of Thai massage. This place is located right by Central Park and the shopping district. Very easy to find. Or if you need a relaxing massage after a whole day of shopping it's a great place to go. It's very easy to set up appointment. And I came in, they prepared a towel and a cup of tea while I was filling out the form. I chose their signature massage which is a combination of Thai massage and Swedish massage, oil massage and stretching combined. I was asked to choose the oil of my choice. Paul was my therapist because I requested a male who can do it stronger. His service is very good and the entire massage didn't try to upscale other services, let me get to relax. The price is a bit high but I guess it's because of the location, but for the service it worth every penny. If they had more promotion I would definitely go back more often. read more

So not a lot of people have done reviews and I was a little scared after reading the first review. I received a groupon for a Thai Massage for my bday so I had no choice but to check it out. Since the review above was really bad I decided to not have high expectations for this place. Once I stepped in I was greeted by a friendly woman who got me seated, took my jacket and shoes, as well as gave me some wonderful ginger tea. I filled out the sheet and waited to get into my room. Let me tell you that I have had Thai massages in Asia including Thailand. So my expectations of a good massage are high. After a couple min's i was shown to my room. I was a little surprised that it wasn't a bed which usually is typical for Thai Massages. So I was a little skeptical of what was going to happen next. I changed into my pj clothes that they provided and laid flat on my stomach. This is one of the reasons why I gave this place 3 stars. It wasn't the massage and it wasn't the cleanliness of the place. It was the fact that the room was separated by a fake wall that was so thin that I could hear other clients next to me. So when they were asked questions I didn't know if it was my masseuse or theirs. It was reasonably quiet after the first 5 min BUT I'm assuming if they had a louder client next to me that they would annoy me. ALSO, it seemed like I could hear music from other places in the room as well, which makes me believe that the walls in general are super thin. That really took away from the RELAXING part of my massage. However overall the massage was really done well. At some points it was a little painful but I'm also not one for too much pain. After she was done I got dressed and when I walked out my jacket and shoes were on the chair waiting for me along with my ginger tea. When I spoke to the woman to give my tip and pay tax, she seemed nice and didn't push me to give a specific amount of tip and didn't really ask me how much i was paying. She thanked me and I got my stuff and left. I didn't have a bad experience here I just think that it's not as quiet and relaxing as I would of like it. The massage was wonderful and got out a lot of the kinks that I had and the staff treated me with respect even though I don't fit into the typical 5th ave shopper. read more

Unfriendly and rude welcome desk and staff. I told them I didnt have an appointment but I do have a groupon. Instead of making an appt there in person, they told me to call 2 or 3 days in advance and carried on in their conversation. Before I mentioned groupon they were accommodating. After wards they seemed disinterested in my business. Apparently they had no one available because there was ONE person in the back was already getting a massage. When you enter all the lights are dim. Almost like they were trying to save on electricity. The entire place seemed cold and empty.The front desk acts like you are bothering them. They really should hire new people if they want to keep a business on fifth ave. Ive been to all different levels of spas from high end to lower end places. Spend your money else where. Go to Bliss ! This place should not be on fifth ave. Look at the other reviews below. read more

Yuri. She's a machine. She is to Thai massage what Helga would be to Swedish massage. If she were an MMA fighter, she would TKO your ass in the first round. She is not for the squeamish, timid, or faint of heart as her mere glance alone would turn you to dust. Request Yuri at your own risk. And compensate her punishment well because she deserves it. read more

My good friend and I booked massages with Joy and May one week in advance. On the day of the appointment, the receptionist called and said that both therapists had emergencies. She said that the other therapists are very good as well, so we went for it. The spa is very nice and clean. Though they don't offer robes and slippers, the ginger tea and warm towel was a nice touch before and after the massage. Customer service was lacking and the massage was below average. My friend and I were very disappointed. Since there are nice reviews about other therapists, I decided to ask the receptionist who she recommended for a Thai massage next time. Nonchalantly, she said everyone was good and asked me if I even had a Thai massage before. I told her I had Thai massages in Thailand and she went quiet. In the end, she wasn't very helpful. read more

My husband and I booked a one year anniversary massage here through Travelzoo and to our delight, we had a great experience. Upon arrival, the ambiance was inviting - scent and sound. The only thing was there wasn't anyone to greet us but we yelled "hello" a bit louder and someone came running. While we were asked to fill out a form of basic info and massage needs we were given hot honey & ginger tea as well as water. We didn't know exactly what type of massage we wanted so asked for a rundown of the options and quickly agreed on the "Signature Massage" which was a combo of Thai + Swedish Oils (great choice!!!). We were quickly escorted to our couples massage room (two rooms with an open connecting door) where we were asked to disrobe and given pre-packaged underwear to put on. I put mine on but my husband decided to keep his own undergarments on which was acceptable as well. Our massage therapists were Joy and Mint and were absolutely great. This place is a must try! read more

Located off 5th Ave but close to Chanel, Dior and Bergdorf goodman, this place is everything and more. I had a Groupon and went in for a deep tissue (medium pressure) because I had tension around my shoulders. I was a lil late but they were accommodating. I was greeted by the receptionist, given a questionnaire, warm towel and ginger tea. They also give you slippers, which I thought was cool. You get to pick the desired oil and everyone was friendly. I was taken to the massage room and Ning was awesome. She relieved the tension in my back and shoulders. Yes, I got my full hour and didn't want it to end. I ended up buying gift certificates and would definitely come back with my mom. Plus they only tax you $5.40 unlike some other places that tax more. I highly recommend this place, you can't beat it. read more

Fifth Avenue Thai Spa - Day Spas Near Me - New York, New York

Oh, I felt pretty damn fancy when I entered. I've sometimes run into the experience where if you mention you have a Groupon, you feel like you're getting subpar service. It definitely wasn't the case here. They offer you water, delicious hot ginger tea, slippers, etc. The ambiance is quite lovely and calming. I came at a quieter time (mid-Sunday) so I was seen right away. They're flexible with appointment times as well. I wish massages lasted forever. I'm pretty sure I was in some dreamy, sleepy trance for the whole hour. I opted for the sports therapy massage as I do a lot of high-impact cardio work-outs and HIIT training and it actually helped relieve my shin splints and aches. It's like I had new legs and could do awesome air kicks all the way home. They offered discount massage certificates at the end (no pressure) and I went for it--especially since massages get pretty pricey around here. They do couples ones too--so bring a friend or lover with you. read more
