TORONTO HIGHLIGHT: THERMËA SPA VILLAGE ‍…read more Thermëa Spa Village was definitely one of my personal Toronto highlights! ‍ This was the perfect place to slow down, disconnect, and just enjoy the moment with my girl during my birthday trip. And listen... THE COLD PLUNGE! I'm not even going to lie, that water was COLD cold! But the experience was actually so refreshing. Going from the heat of the thermal baths and saunas straight into that freezing water was an experience all by itself! One of my favorite areas had to be the sauna meditation room. ‍ It was so peaceful and calming. Being able to sit quietly, breathe, relax, and let your mind just slow down was exactly the kind of reset I didn't know I needed. The whole spa was beautiful, peaceful, and luxurious, but what I loved most was that it wasn't just about being pampered--it really felt like an experience for your mind, body, and soul. The food was so refreshing and tasty. Between the cold plunge, the saunas, the meditation spaces, the thermal baths, and simply enjoying the day together, Thermëa was absolutely worth adding to our Toronto itinerary. 10/10 experience. Would absolutely go back! ‍ Relaxation: ELITE Cold Plunge: WHEW! ‍ Meditation Room: PEACEFUL Birthday Memories: PRICELESS

This would have been a five-star review for me, but it's not what happened at the spa that's an…read moreissue, it's what happened after. My partner and I have been wanting to come here for a while. We were super excited, and for the most part we had an excellent time. The facilities are well maintained. The activities and rituals are very nice. The unlimited towel and robe exchange is a very nice perk. The relaxation areas are very comfortable and well maintained. The restaurant service is excellent, the decor is lovely, and the food was tasty. We spent seven hours at the spa and tried every single offering. While yes, it can get busier at the midpoint of the day, the evenings are very quiet and you can enjoy many of the pools, saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs, and cold plunges with little to no other people. We thought the staff were friendly and approachable, and the therapists very professional. We got the Kalla upgrade and it was very cool, a great experience with very thoughtful decor and an extremely interesting experience. This is actually what we came for, the saltwater float pool. It didn't disappoint and was definitely relaxing we spent almost an hour in the float and no regrets. The lockers and change area, while busy, are easy to navigate, and the showers were extremely clean. All in all, we had an excellent time, and this is a great day spa that really offers some peaceful, tranquil, and relaxing spaces. It's a very thoughtful and enjoyable spa. I would absolutely come again. My issue is what happened after. When I got home, I noticed my lower back was quite inflamed and hot. I didn't think much of it and figured it was my body detoxing and flushing out the not-so-good stuff. I had a mild fever, but again, with all the hot and cold transitions, that's normal. When I woke up the next morning, my lower back was itchy and red, some pimple-like nodes had shown up, and when I accidentally touched one, a bunch of greenish pus came out. It's since been inflamed, itchy, and sore to the touch. I have tried contacting the spa three times, and each time I'm told there is an hour-long wait to speak to someone. I just need to know what may have caused this. Since this is the spa I went to, I imagine they may have some idea of what this could be. I'm going to the walk-in clinic today, because I have never experienced this before. I go to a lot of spas, resorts, and hotels, and I'm a big pool and spa enthusiast. I have never had this happen. I don't care for how hard it's been to connect with someone, and that there isn't any information provided on any of this chain's sites that even addresses this. I went online and found out that this has happened before and does happen because of the Kalla. Again, that's not the issue - I'm not stupid and I know things happen at such busy spas. The issue is I can't find a single way to contact the spa and actually reach a human I can talk to about what this is and what I should do, I have called three times and it's an hour plus wait to speak to someone. That really isn't a great way to cap off such a good experience. I would say that if you have sensitive skin or concerns, you should ask the staff before or during your visit, so that if something does happen, you know what to do. These are communal baths and spas, and I think it would be helpful to have more "health and safety" information available on both their website and at the spa. I think finding out secondhand, from a variety of news articles, that you can get a staph infection from the Kalla is not very comforting. I'd have really appreciated more transparency and clear communication.

Truly an unforgettable experience at Spa myBlend!…read more We treated ourselves to the Floating on a Cloud Together experience, which consisted of a 90 minute couples massage and 30 minute private time in the spa room to lounge around, shower/bathe and enjoy the complementary bubbly. Note this experience must be booked over the phone. We were given all day access to their swimming pool, sauna, co-ed lounge and other spa facilities. From the moment we walked in to the Ritz hotel we were greeted warmly and guided towards the elevator at the back of the lobby which leads to the spa located on the fifth floor. After checking in for our appointment, we were given health forms to fill out. Shortly after, one of the spa staff led me to the ladies changing room and gave me a tour of the facilities, and introduced me to my RMT. She noticed my hair was down so she provided me a hair tie before I begun changing into the robe and slippers that were provided. Such detailed oriented service! We were led to our massage room, which was darkly lit. Both our RMTs asked us to pick out of one of the three essential oils for the massage. Then, the foot bath and massage ensued. So relaxing! After this, we were led to the heated massage tables for the full body massage. The temperature can be adjusted if you find it too warm and they are also happy to adjust the volume on the peaceful music playing in the background. Before I knew it, 90 minutes was up. It indeed felt like we were floating on a cloud together in the end. So peaceful and relaxed. Our RMTs brought us glasses of Prosecco and snacks. They advised us the bath takes too slow to draw and showers are ideal if we wanted to take it. I tested out the bath and the water did run too slow. Note if you shower they have the Clarins soap (which I think is different from the regular soap used in the showers in the change rooms). Anyway, we enjoyed our time hanging around after our massage on our own. It was a special experience! Once our appointment was complete, we chilled in the lounge, where they have complementary snacks and magazines for you to read. We brought our bathing suits so we went across to the swimming pool and jacuzzi (which requires an access card from the spa reception). From the jacuzzi you can get a view of the CN tower. We went back to the spa change rooms after to shower, but unfortunately there were no heated towels left in the men's changing room. After the shower there is an area for you to get ready in the washrooms or change room, with a Dyson hair dryer, hair comb, lotion, hair spray, deodorant and more. If you need a straightener or curling iron you can ask the staff. Perfect set up if you're looking to dress up after your spa date! Overall, I highly recommend the spa at the Ritz. It's priced high, but the value and quality of the service you receive makes up for it. Worth going at least once for the five star spa day experience.

I am a very positive person who has only given 5 star reviews and generous tips to unknown people,…read moreespecially as a fellow business owner. For my husband's birthday, I was excited to take him from our home in NYC to Toronto. On our last day there, following so many great reviews online, I booked in advance your spa on 3/4/25. Every other part of our experience in Toronto was beyond exceptional! While the spa itself seemed great and we enjoyed our very expensive massages, I was following all of the spa rules, including bathing in the jacuzzi, sauna, and steamroom area with a bathing suit. After my bathing suit was wet, I used the same bathrobe in the co-ed area that everyone else was using to read with my husband. A woman who works there came up to the public area, where there were several other bathers, about 6 to 7, and spoke very indiscreetly that I had been getting complaints from a fellow spa member. She said it very loudly and aggressively and even though I never broke any spa rules and wasn't at the time of this encounter. I immediately was confused, and asked "wait, someone complained about me or my husband?" I was so confused because I was following the spa rules, and if she had looked at me, she would have seen that I was not naked nor breaking any rules. I started crying immediately out of horror. We had been there for less than 2 hours. I told the staff person we would leave immediately, because of how horrified I was by how I was being treated by her. The staff person said, "I'm sorry," but had taken the tattler's word as fact and did not ask me a single question. making it an extremely upsetting encounter for me. I left to go to the front desk with the person who helped us originally and seemed really nice. I was crying, which I don't usually do. I told her exactly what had happened, that I was following the spa rules and had been "shamed out of the space" pretty aggressively by the woman employee. I explained that it was my husband's birthday and there was nothing relaxing about this, and how much we had paid to be shamed and mistreated despite following every rule. You need to train your staff about privacy and how to handle these incidents. As a fellow clinic and business owner, and any time I have worked for other institutions, my main concern is people's satisfaction. I was crying harder than I have ever cried in public and her main concern was that I pay for the services. Again this reaction shocked me. We were on the street in the cold thereafter for the rest of the day for an inappropriate shaming accusation. The person at the front desk explained that her manager would call me that same day (and never did). I spent the next several calling the manager who never was able to call me back. I am filing a complaint with the Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery and Procurement. I was frankly shocked by this on every level. --

You cannot bring in your own water, but drinking water and towels are available. When you go upstairs, a staff member explains what to do. You change from your shoes into slippers and receive a loose-fitting top and shorts to wear. There are several different sauna rooms to try, with secure cubicles nearby where you can leave your phone before entering each room. The spa has separate men's and women's changing rooms with showers, a hot tub and plenty of useful amenities. You can also purchase facial masks. Beyond the saunas, there are far infrared-light lounge chairs to lie on, massage chairs, a quiet lounge for reading or relaxing, a sleeping room, a gym and computer stations if you need to work. There is also a restaurant if you get hungry, as well as spa treatments available for an additional cost. Many people brought books and spent time relaxing between the different rooms. It is a lovely place to slow down, unwind and spend several peaceful hours.

Very large place, mindfully decorated, with different rooms and plenty of resting space, a gym, several dry saunas, heated pools and jacuzzis, a cold plunge, a restaurant with actually really delicious meal options, and an entire upstairs area for massages... a computer room?? And games you can rent out?? I was thoroughly impressed. Unfortunately for me I wish the guests appreciated the space more... in the areas where they request for guests to be mindful of volume... there were too many loud guests... i wish people were more mindful of shared spaces. I noted that a lot of people were on their phones which sort of defeats the purpose of full relaxation. Now for the add ons where you will have to pay a bit extra... The food is so delicious. I have zero complaints... other than the fruit is a bit too expensive. But they have very sizeable portions for meals! Massage therapy was lovely... it started with a sound bowl for relaxation. I'm pretty sure I fell asleep. I went for the lymphatic massage and then it ended up becoming a deep tissue massage with hot rocks. In the end I think I spent like $325... entry fee and massage alone was $180 together... honestly I'd come again with a group of maybe 4 friends or by myself once in a while (and by a while I mean like maybe once a year)

It's in the main plaza of the corner mall at Finch & Leslie, and you need to ring the doorbell to be buzzed in (the doors are kept locked despite them being open). The place feels small and slightly cramped but very clean and calming at the same time. There's enough seating for... one person out from in the lobby, just to give you an idea how small it is. Strange though, because once you go in there are quite a few rooms back there and I was mind-boggled as to how it all fit together. I'm sure the space is a lot larger than you think from the outside. Rooms are small and the walls are paper thin. The people are friendly and are very fluent in Cantonese, Mandarin, and some in English. The facials take about an hour and a half, and they're very relaxing. They use well-known brands and take the time to talk you to about your skin-care routine and suggest things you should change. Overall it's a nice getaway from day-to-day grind.
