BUYER BEWARE! WOW. I'm appalled. This place has gone downhill like an avalanche. When I first started going here it was $30-35 for entrance to the facilities (you could optionally get a scrub or massage for more) and there was a kitchen with pretty good Korean food. NOW HOWEVER. They informed me at the desk that it's a subscription service that costs $1000 for 3MONTHS. And you're required to get a service. The cheapest one was a 25 min shoulder massage for $100 (still highway robbery). But I immediately came back for a refund when I saw they suggested DoorDash instead of having a real kitchen anymore. All other facilities have remained the exact same with no significant upgrades. I've been to KSpas in multiple states and countries and none of them have policies as egregious as this. The only thing they massage from you is money from your wallet. This is not the definition of a KSpa. read more

Olympic Spa - Entrance - Massage Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This place was not for me. The service was not great and neither was the massage. They mistakenly called me back for a second service and came in the middle of it to say they made a mistake. I didn't know what was booked because it was a gift. No real apology. Super tacky. read more

5 out of 5 stars for this amazing spa and the Goddess treatment! All in, an amazing 3-5 hours of bliss will run you ~$250 and it's worth every penny. There's two private parking lots. I highly recommend parking there and not on the street. This is not the best part of town. Be prepared to be nude, as this is a womens only sanctuary spa and you can't wear undergarments or swimming attire in the pool area or while getting a treatment done. Be secure and respectful. The Goddess treatment consists of a full-body scrub, several focused aromatherapy massages, oil, facial, hair scrub, and a few other things. Expect to be there for a couple of hours, and you'll need to come early to soak in the pool or sit in the sauna room beforehand. Lockers, robe, towels, slippers provided. Leave jewelry and valuables at home. Amazing place, amazing concept, and amazing people. read more

I was referred by a friend, who has been to many Korean spas around the world. I booked the Goddess Treatment. I had no idea of what to expect so I read a lot of reviews and got to know spa etiquette. The whole experience was phenomenal. You enter and are given a brief introduction. You are given a key fob with a locker, robe and slippers. I arrived an hour early, even though 15 minutes early to soak is all that's required to soak and soften before your scrub. I suggest going early and enjoying all of the amenities. I happily went between the different pools, steams and saunas. The treatment was amazing. After stripping down and soaking to soften your skin, a staff member will call your number (from your key fob), take you back and begin your scrub treatment. You are told to lay on a table and drenched with warm water and the scrubbed from head to toe. It's not at all uncomfortable, like I'd read on a few reviews. After your body is scrubbed, you are oiled, massaged (this was one of the best massages I've ever had) and given several other treatments, including a wonderful hair treatment. The whole process was phenomenal. A few things to know beforehand: - leave your insecurities at the door. Although you're given a robe, everyone is naked in the spa area. No swimsuits allowed. No one is looking at you and it's very freeing to be naked in a safe place. -bring a water bottle. Infused water is provided and this is very dehydrating work. -be prepared for your practitioner to scrub and massage every inch of you. If You aren't comfortable with your butt and boobs rubbed down, don't come, but it is very professional and you get over your shyness really fast. -this is a serene place. Leave your phone behind. I can't give this place and experience enough praise. I will be back! The staff is also incredibly wonderful. read more

Awesome birthday celebration with my daughter and a friend of mine. I can't wait to go again.

I received the gift of self-care for my birthday and wow, this place did not disappoint. First time visitor and enjoyed my time here thoroughly. The entrance is not on Olympic but through the parking lot in the back. There are at least two parking areas, but there's also free street parking if those are full. The neighborhood itself is urban, aka loud, so I wasn't sure what to expect going in as far as tranquility. Let me assure you, this is an oasis in the middle of LA! Although the lot was full, I felt like I mostly had the place to myself. There were a mix of dry (oxygen, clay, salt, relaxation, outdoor) and wet (steam, ice, tubs) rooms. I underestimated the spa's offerings and wish I had allowed for more time, although I allotted 3 hours in addition to my treatment. I'd recommend bringing music, some earbuds, and a good book to lounge around all day. There's a cafe area and they offer plenty of water, infused water and barley water to hydrate. A few snacks too. But the main event was the Goddess treatment with Han, starting with a Korean scrub as you lie nude on a table. Every part - except your face and privates (but close) - gets exposed and scrubbed. Followed by oils, then a light massage, then more oils, massage, a facial, hair treatment, more massage. Holy crap, where has this been all my life? It was a sensual and intoxicating experience. My skin was so smooth and soft. I loved it! Only gripe... the massage was more like a nice rub on the skin. I even requested for much harder pressure because I have a lot of knots, but it wasn't going to happen. Keep in mind... you are nude, and with this treatment, you will have to rinse off by walking across a common area in this state. I am a very reserved person in this respect, but I was comfortable enough to strut my stuff without worry. Other women are doing the same. And if you're still on the fence, go solo for your first time. Also I have very sensitive skin, more so on my face. If you have issues, let the front desk know. They altered my facial treatment to pure cucumber and it worked out great. As for cost, it's a great deal. I've been to a couple of day spas in the area - including Glen Ivy in Corona, and Spa le Merigot in Santa Monica. I would have paid a fortune for an almost 2 hour treatment + spa access. Highly, highly recommended! read more

pros: iced citrus water, cold face towel, and has a little bit of everything you'd expect at a k spa with intimate feel. wide selection of treatments and massage with the right technician is great. had a great reflexology massage with Sunny. red light therapy room is a plus and nice to be provided slippers. cons: I've experienced some unprofessionalism from front desk and certain techs. due to auto gratuity some techs don't try very hard. don't look too close it's all a bit superficial. facilities feel kind of dated given price point. decent option but not my top choice. read more

There have been a lot of changes to Olympic Spa since I used to go pre-pandemic. The biggest concern is that there are no longer day passes for the spa (I think they stopped that in either late 2021 or 2022) which means you must book a service or be a member. I booked a shiatsu massage and for the cost, I would rather pay the same amount and be at a fancy place like Burke Williams. The cafe is also no longer, so you can't enjoy delicious Korean food during your stay. All that being said, I had a lovely time with my friends when we went because the tubs, saunas, jade rooms are all nice. I was just unhappily surprised with the changes that decreased the value along with huge uptick in price and in the future will select other K Spas. read more

Clean, peaceful, women only spa with all the sauna/steam/pool options you need. Also my masseuse, Julie, put her whole body into releasing the unforgiving knots in my shoulders. She seemed to know exactly where to press and attack to chip away at them. Literally went from hard rock knots to kneaded bread. I think if I went back to her once a month I'd be a new person-- unfortunately that would get a little expensive for me but if you can afford it, do it. Only downside is unlike other korean spas there is no restaurant, though I was told by a regular that you can order delivery from nearby restaurants at the front desk. read more

Love love love this place with the pools, dry and wet saunas, salt and charcoal rooms. Can't beat getting your skin scrubbed to the nub. The restaurant is decent. Prices too. read more

My friend and I had a great time. Facilities are clean and well stocked. The person who conducted the services was impressive. 80 minutes of practically nonstop movement. I wish some people were quieter during their visit. I think staff did their best to encourage them to be quiet, short of kicking them out. read more

Worst customer service and prices !!! They are so ignorant and careless. I wouldn't recommend anyone to go. read more

I had the full body scrub and if you are not bashful it is worth going 3-6 times a year to shed dead skin cells. My skin looks 15 years younger. Very nice and clean. Can't wait to return. read more

I have to say it wasn't totally bad, but also not totally good either. I really enjoyed the pools, ice room, and salt rooms. Lots of common areas to hang out were a plus. I think it's silly that you have to book a service in order to go to this spa. I ended up booking a foot massage that was nothing to write home about. It was average at best. Plus the prices for services at this place are higher than others and they have a mandatory 20% tipping policy. I usually tip very well for great service, but I think it's less than ideal to make people pay 20% if their services are not 20% quality. It's also misleading that they no longer have a cafe. Welp. It was fun to catch up with one of my good friends, but I probably would opt for another spa next time. read more

Olympic Spa - Massage Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been coming here for years with my friends. It's the best way to take a reprieve from the city, relax, and pamper myself with gal pals. It's always a lovely experience. Today I had a "pure bliss" service and it was AMAZING! We went in to celebrate a friend's birthday and we met the owner who was very kind. read more

I used to LOVE this place. It was by far my favorite spa in LA. They have completely changed since COVID and I do not plan on returning. First off the prices have gone way up. It's $60 just to enter. If it was the same spa I went to in 2019 I would happily pay that but now it's totally different so the price just adds insult to injury. It's also become weirdly corporate. We went for my friends birthday and they wouldn't let us in saying we had to book online and we had to book an hour ahead of time. So instead of just being decent and letting us in we literally had to go book appointments on our phone and then sit in our cars for an hour while we waited for our appointment. The got rid of all the things that made this place special and unique... not more mugwort baths. And they got rid of the wonderful restaurant. Now there is just this sad outdoor area with Astro turf. Plus it seems they chlorinated the pool. I didn't get a service so I cannot speak to the quality but the prices are outrageous. An hour massage is 4xs what I pay at my local massage place. It's like 4 Seasons Hotel Spa prices. Anyways sad to see one of my favorite LA institutions ruined. Will not return. read more

We did a girls afternoon at this Korean spa and it did not disappoint!! The spa was clean and the rooms well kept. Since Covid they have made some changes and no longer serve food. You can order and have it delivered to the front desk and go to their sitting area to eat!! The staff were great and going in the late afternoon was less crowded! Would come back again. No photos taken as this is a nude spa for women only read more

This used to be my most favorite spa in LA until they raised their prices. Spa membership might give you a slight discount on their services. But when you do the math, you're practically spending at least $300 dollars per day. It's more expensive than a Disneyland annual pass. Because membership is out of my price range, I can only opt for the non-member prices. $100 for just the 25 minutes Akasuri Skin Scrub? Are you kidding me? I can get a deep tissue massage elsewhere for that price. $190 for the Milk and Honey Body Smoothie? I'm aware that they raise prices slightly in the past, but that is beyond justification. And they still keep raising their prices periodically! It seems like they only want to cater to the extremely wealthy. When they reopened a few years ago, I also checked the website and they require proof of two doses of you know what I mean. What if you're contraindicated? There is nothing on the website stating any other alternative. I'm NEVER going to give them a free pass on that. I'm NEVER coming back. I would NEVER recommend this spa to anyone anymore. Do not come here! There are plenty of other good spas to go to without having to burn your bank account. read more

Just tried this spa for the first time. Such a lovely experience! This is an amazing spa! So pretty, well maintained, kind staff, and clean amenities. The salt room was my favorite! The treatments were amazing! The pricing was also decent, especially because LA can get expensive for no reason. I 100% recommend this place, and can't wait to book my next appointment there! read more

It is calm, awesome body scrubs and my favorite the mug root pool and the cold plunge. It truly has so much at an affordable price. Most spas just keep raising prices making it hard to budget in. read more

I had to cancel my appointment on principle. They now charge for valet parking. I parked my own car and they wanted me to pay 3$ anyway. I did not have my car key for the man to park my car and I don't understand why everyone has to do valet. I already was going to pay 220$ to be at the spa and receive services. While it's 3$, it's the principal. If I'm parking my car I should not have to pay for valet. I'm paying for something I'm not receiving. I don't understand why they don't include parking in their "service fee" which I don't even know actually goes to the masseuse. Not worth it. Go to Wii spa. Cheaper services and they charge the same price for parking. They also have a restaurant and a much larger facility. Update: for less than I would have spent at Olympic Spa I went to Wii spa and got the same services plus a pedicure and lunch for under 220$ (I used to do pure bliss at Olympic.. but is 220$ with gratuity and now they are forcing their customers to pay 3$ for valet parking even if they don't park your car...) Needless to say, Olympic spa has lost a customer and any referrals I was making to other nurses and patients... read more

Olympic Spa - Proof I had an appointment. - Massage Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I recently visited, Olympic (women only) Spa, and indulged in their aptly named "Pure Bliss" package. Here's a detailed account of my experience: I was advised to arrive 45 minutes early to prepare myself mentally for the unique experience ahead. The spa environment encourages you to be completely comfortable with being naked, which might be a bit daunting at first but is an integral part of the experience. Upon arrival, you are given a locker number. First, you place your shoes in the first set of lockers and put on rubber slippers. Then, head to the second set of lockers to change into a robe. The journey begins with a mandatory shower, after which you can choose between the cold pool, relaxation pool, or salt pool. Each pool offers a different type of relaxation and rejuvenation. I found the relaxation pool to be incredibly warm and soothing. You also have the option to explore the various hot and cold saunas and clay rooms. Each one had its own unique benefits and atmosphere, adding layers of relaxation and detoxification to the experience. I opted to soak in the pool until my number was called. Ms. Im provided my treatment. The highlight of the spa experience is the famous Akasuri Body Scrub. This thorough exfoliation left my skin feeling unbelievably smooth. It was followed by a citrus jojoba bead body polish that felt both invigorating and calming. Note, they start with your back, then front and then side to side; in-depth scrub and warm water rinse. The session then transitioned into a full Korean rapid lymphatic massage with their own aromatherapy oil blend. This massage technique was unlike any I've had before, instantly relieving my tired body and releasing tension I didn't even know I had. You can request a more moderate massage if you prefer. Next was a stimulating essential oil scalp massage that was a treat for my senses, followed by a botanical facial massage and a Vitamin C mask. This combination left my skin feeling fresh and revitalized. To top it all off, my hair was washed and conditioned, ensuring I left the spa feeling completely rejuvenated from head to toe. Overall, the Pure Bliss experience at Olympic Spa is a holistic journey of relaxation and rejuvenation. Each step is thoughtfully designed to pamper and revitalize you, making it well worth the visit. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comprehensive and different spa experience :) Can't wait to book my next session! read more

Such a lovely spa experience, always so clean and quiet and feels luxurious. They do a good job of ensuring they never get crowded or too busy so it always feels serene in each of the saunas and hot tubs. I highly recommend Hannah, she is an amazing masseuse, you can tell she really understands anatomy and every massage with her is the best massage. My favorite Korean spa in LA by far. read more

So this was my second time going to a Korean spa. The first time I didn't really do anything out of fear (thanks Conan O'Brien). But I decided to go for it this time. This spa was super nice, way nicer than the first one I had been to. It was like the Burke Williams of Korean spas based on the ambiance and amenities. What I mean to say is it felt like an upscale fancy spa. Now if for some reason you haven't read any of the other reviews yet or don't know what I means to go to a Korean spa, yes you're going to have to get completely naked to use the tubs and you'll be naked for your wet room services. But you can wear your robe for the saunas, steam rooms and other rooms. I know some folks are complaining that they don't serve food here like they had in the past. But they have some pretty good snacks, particularly in the back lounge room. Cup noodles??? Done. You get maybe a piece of fruit at most at other spas. I enjoyed my experience there. If you're getting a wet room service, just be careful not to slip off the table like a wet fish when turning over. read more

This place pales in comparison to what it once was. I'm so disappointed by its current state. :( I've been coming here since 2009, and this was always one of my favorite spots in LA. You can no longer do a drop in pass here to use the tubs and saunas and instead must book a service to enter. I miss the flexibility of being able to pop in and there are many fewer people here now as a result and for such a big place to be so empty (at least on a weekday) honestly feels a little creepy. I've received many scrubs and massages here over the years but the one I had this month (Jan 2024) is the only instance where the person providing the service was rude. She got upset at me for not understanding that tapping on my head vigorously (and not using any words) was a signal to sit up. After I finally realized what she wanted, she then started using words and just kept saying "no good" to me over and over, which is really what one wants to hear when trying to have a relaxing experience! She also was upset with me because I didn't have space slippers with me, but a pair was not left in my shoe locker and I didn't realize this was now a thing there as slippers were never given out in the past. To add insult to injury, the spa now adds on a mandatory 20% gratuity (not mentioned on their website, you learn this at checkout). You can no longer order from the kitchen here, but they do have nasty cup of noodles, M&Ms and pretzels available for self service which aren't really snacks that match the price tag of the experience here. I miss the days of the old Olympic Spa. I'll be taking my business to Hugh Spa and some of the other smaller spas that still have some soul to them and don't rob you blind. read more

This is a female only spa. You can make your own appointment online and the process was seamless. Celebrated my friend's birthday here! We got the luxury scrub and facial service. I got to say, the amenities here are amazing. There are multiple sauna room, cold room and heated rooms, which are what you would expect at a spa. However, there's more! Once you got your service, you're in your clean robe, you can enjoy the outdoor garden, or the indoor sleeping rooms! I can see myself spending the whole day here. (Unfortunately I didn't have time). This spa is also super quiet and peaceful. I would recommend any females to reward themselves by having a spa day here! read more

I love this place!! So clean and the services are amazing the goddess is my favorite i highly recommend it

I'm just so sad this place has turned from a community space for women to retreat and recover from the stresses of life , to an exclusive, over-priced mechanism for the kind of corporate greed that is consuming every last breath of such places in America. The people who work here as as good as ever, but seriously, shame on the management for destroying a place that was part of the fabric of what made living in the area something that offered somewhere to be for hard working people. Now, almost everyone that goes there is a wealthy white woman. I am white myself, but I remember, when I started going in 1998, when it was mostly older Korean ladies and then, over the years, a nice place to be with a diverse community of women. I wish that was still what it was, not just another Beverly Hills boutique to service a faction of society that doesn't need more. I never go there anymore since the last time I went cost over $200 to just get in the door -- granted, it makes sense it would be more over time, but it use to be $15, then $25 for the day...I'd pay more than that, but it's become unreasonable. read more

I heard amazing things about this place and me and a friend decided to check it out, especially with the new year coming in we wanted to take some time to relax. Straight off the bat, I notice how welcoming everyone is. This is my first experience with a spa, and all I have to say is great things. If you're looking for a place to get a nice body scrub, this is the one! I got the pure bliss treatment, and I feel like that name is super fitting. The scrub is pretty intense, they do scrub pretty hard because they are after all, exfoliating your body, but after that I felt like I was in heaven. The lady doing my massage was super friendly, overall my experience here was amazing. Not to mention there are various rooms to check out, there is a iced sauna, a traditional sauna, a clay room, a cold plunge, of course a jacuzzi, and many more things. There's even a designated place to snack (they provide the snacks). 10/10 would recommend. read more

Came here today with my friend for the first time. We did the goddess treatment and it was amazing for both of us! The ladies really made us feel like they wanted to get every crevice and inch on our body. The place was super clean, they had a lot of different treatment rooms and lounge rooms which we need to plan better next time for a 6 hour day there instead of just 3 hours. They have a patio area to hang out too if you want, today was raining so we didn't get to enjoy that either. They have things to snack on but if you want to eat lunch, we have the ability to order grub hub for delivery which is nice. And I really don't understand why people are Complaining about the automatic 20% gratuity added for the ladies that took care of us.. I gave mine 25% because she really put a lot of effort to get me squeaky clean! These ladies had to touch place I'm sure make all of us blush! My friend and I are already planning our next visit! read more

Yesterday was the last time I will visit your spa. I had to ask my masseuse during a Goddess Scrub and Massage to signal the front desk it was extremely loud in jacuzzi area. She pressed the buzzer and told them. Nothing changed - it was so loud it ruined the massage. I then told her to go get the Manager. She walked thru the loud area to get to me. She did nothing. She failed at her job to ensure that I had a great relaxing massage. At the front desk when I checked out, all 3 women at the front desk said they tried and there is nothing they can do if guests are loud. I asked them "was it very loud" and all 3 said yes it was but they can do nothing to quiet them down. So it appears that your staff failed to ensure that I had a wonderful day at the spa and it will happen again and again. read more

This place is a dream. Every woman should experience at least one time in their lives. Very clean. The staff is professional. It's quiet for the most part. Although they have robes, most women feel so free they're nude which wasn't uncomfortable at all. The massage was amazing!!! I will make this a bi monthly ritual for sure. read more

Parking: They have two lots, free and with security. The security guard stays in lot number one and has eyes on both lots. Which I do appreciate especially in Koreatown We booked the Pure Bliss treatment. I'd recommend doing all the wet stuff like the pools beforehand because you're not allowed to do them after your treatment which I wish we knew because we didn't experience half the spot because no one told us. The Pure Bliss treatment involves official which is really just a face mask and a quick massage. It all occurs in a little station for the bath area, so your butt naked in front of the other people. Definitely like the facilities but wish they had food and for the price of $204 which includes the 20% gratuity I wish they actually did a proper facial and use one of the private massage rooms. read more

They're charging high end spa prices now. Cheaper than 5 star hotels but come on, this place was gem because of their wet room services at an affordable price. Its still not super private or any super luxury setting just because they made some upgrades. I get it, inflation. But this was a place people that couldn't afford high end spa prices could come & relax & get something that felt luxurious. That was what was special. You didnt need to pay an arm & a leg to get a treatment & be able to unwind. It was $120, now $190. I'd get $150 maybe, but this is an extreme hike up. read more

Well this sucks, the restaurant inside is gone. That restaurant was one of the best parts of the spa. From what I'm seeing in other reviews a 20% gratuity is now automatically included... I think that's fine but people should be informed upfront about it. I am really disappointed that the restaurant is gone, it was so popular. I've been coming to this spa since 2006... I'm glad I was able to experience it in its hay day before it became just another generic spa farm. I understand it's a business and they want people in and out. But to take away the heart and soul of this place... what's next a two hour time limit? Lol honestly wouldn't be surprised about that. read more

Love this spa! Never had an issue. Very clean. Services are always great. My go to Spa in LA!

Always clean. Massage, pools and saunas are an Outstanding experience. Usually go with a girlfriend.

I went to book an appointment for my boyfriend and I for his birthday. I was directed from a Reddit thread where I was looking up quality spas in LA so I never saw their main page. When booking, they had me put in guest information including our genders. They had the option for BOTH male and female. When we arrived the valet told us it was an all women's spa. No where during the check out process or even booking did it say all women's spa. Why would you have the option to select male as a gender if you don't accept males? Such a disappointment and waste of time. read more

Decent sauna, soak, and massage experience in LA. My took my mother there to get goddess treatment. I like the establishment and how there's so many different sauna room, from infrared to clay to salt room. We went 1 hour before our appointment and got to enjoy all the sauna + cold plunge. The treatment experience overall was fine, but having had similar treatment (soak + scrub + Massage) in Japan and Bali, I do not understand why places in the US massage you so fast. It feels like they are rushing and that's not relaxing to experience. My mother was not a fan of the fast stroke at all. The pressure was good though as I like strong. Also the 25 mins scrub was awesome. I felt like I shed a new skin. Pro tip to the business: I think it would be ideal if the technician ask customer if they prefer a fast stroke or slow stroke before starting the treatment. That way everyone is happy. For 200$ a treatment + auto 20% tip, they should make sure they get all their customer's preference right. read more

I love coming here. I just came in for a Glass Scrub. The prices have gone up since Covid, but definitely worth it. OH EMMMM GEE!!! The scrub was so good. My skin has never felt better. Moon was my person and she was ever so sweet. I took an hour nap in the Jade Room before jumping into the relaxation spa. The rooms here are so clean and promote total relaxation. You should have a day out with your friends here. You will love it. Just the best place to unwind and a beautiful way to take care of yourself. read more
