I had a few hours to kill and really wanted a massage, so I reached out to this spot to make an appointment. I called twice and they didn't pick up but they texted me right away and scheduled something through text. I opted for a 30 minute massage since I was short on time. When I arrived I was kindly greeted and waited a few minutes to be taken in. It's a very small location and I was in the room closest to the entrance - so I could hear everything going on outside. I believe the lady who gave my massage was named Anne or Anna. She mainly worked on my back, neck, and shoulders which was exactly what I needed. Honestly, for 30 minutes it was a great massage. She checked in with me multiple times throughout which I appreciated. Overall I had a good experience here and would recommend if you're in the area. read more

Massage Palacio: they have your cell # pegged as: bad tipper, good tipper, picky, late, etc and don't answer your call if you are pegged as undesirable. Front desk/ reception etiquette is the worst. only one therapist is worth going, rest are god -awful, with no concentrated/ focused/directed hands, just foo foo touch. read more

This place has a lot of amazing reviews so I was excited to try it out. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the expectations at all. The massage was not good - it was basically just someone rubbing a lot of lotion on me, and it felt like no massage techniques were used. I asked for stronger pressure at one point and they gave about 5% more effort for a few minutes. Based on the reviews, maybe I just got a bad masseuse - but you only get one first impression so each service should be good quality. Aside from that, all of the staff was nice. They could do some small upgrades to the space to make it feel more cleanly, like repainting the walls as they seemed to have quite a bit of scuffs/damage/dirt. The valet parking situation is also quite annoying. It doesn't feel necessary for the plaza, and the validation provided from the business does not cover the length of 90 min massages so you end up needing to pay $5 for parking. read more

This is a first-class operation, from the front desk to the therapists. They reflect kindness, respect, and wonderful expertise.

High-quality massage that literally, hits the spot. The therapists ask about pressure and then follow through. The price is unbeatable. It's clean and comfortable. I find the space to be calming. They take appointments, are on time, and have a quick check-out service. They validate for an hour and 10 mins, so if you park in the lot and get an hour massage you should have enough time to park for free. read more

I love this place. I go on a regular basis. Jenny is the best! The place is clean and I always feel so good when I'm done. Highly recommend.

I came in here on a whim because it's down the street from my apartment. I was having some mid-back pain, and opted for a swedish massage. My massage tech was Alex, and she did the most amazing job. The prices are unbeatable and the establishment itself is clean and organized. I would definitely recommend! read more

This was the best massage I've had in recent years and at an unbelievable price. My masseuse was Beena and she applied just the right about of pressure. She also checked in with me periodically to make sure it wasn't too much. The place is clean and though the rooms are only closed with a curtain, it's pretty quiet. Be prepared to pay $3 for valet if you are there longer than an hour. I did the 90 min massage for $70. I will definitely be back! read more

Had the massage yesterday and wanted to wait until today to see how I feel the day after. Woke up this morning and my body feels fresh but I can tell a difference. They told me to go back in a couple of days since I was so tight on my neck and shoulders. My body was light and didn't feel like I needed to stretch much. Recommend going to this place at least once a week if you travel alot or exercise. See you guys soon! Thank you TMP! read more

This place has the most affordable prices so I was shocked when it ended up being an AMAZING massage. I've gone back several times since my first. The reason it isn't five stars is because this place doesn't have doors in the rooms so you can hear everything, making it not so relaxing, but honestly it felt so amazing that it didn't make the experience that much worse. I've had three different masseuses and each was fantastic and kind. read more

Fantastic Service and Experience! I've been going to this massage place regularly, and I'm consistently impressed with the high-quality service. The staff is professional, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. The atmosphere is relaxing, and I always leave feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Every massage I've had has been amazing, and they truly care about their customers' comfort and satisfaction. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great massage experience read more

Amazing!!! First time here and got the best 90 minute experience. I had the session with Anna and I'll tell you that she was fantastic! She has calm hands and was very gentle if those who are looking for a relaxing massage. Recommend trying her out if you want a Swedish relaxing. Will be back very soon! read more

I love this place. It's my go to for affordable good massage. Gets busy so good to make an appointment.

OMG Alex helped me so much! What an incredible deal and incredible masseuse. Thai and Swedish massage combination truly made me feel like a new person. I hold a lot of tension in my shoulders, neck and back. Alex really helped release that tension. I will 100% be coming back and recommending her and the Massage Palacio to my friends. read more

Best deep tissue / thai massage in LA. Alex is the best!! Highly recommend this spot.

We have been to many many massage places in LA. This is a new favorite. Also a bonus is only a 15min walk from our home.

This place is within walking distance from my house. I was in need of a massage because my lower back was hurting. I did my usual yelp search and found that they have a great deal during the day for massage ( only $39). What a deal. It was very easy to make an appointment, I called 45 minutes before I went and they were able to take me in. I got the combination massage, both oil and little bit of thai. The lady was constantly checking with me to make sure I was not experiencing too much pain. Honestly, my back pain was gone the next day. With such a good deal and close distance and easy to make appointment, I will keep coming back. read more

Amazing !! Everyone was so nice! I referred 3 of my friends. Such a good massage. The price is great !! Thank you Massage Pallaciao

Very impressed by the service, never a wait time. They are very kind upon entry never feel removed and always feel welcomed. I love the costs, and the staff is consistent and warm. I am happy to spend my money here, apprehensive at first ive gotten many massages at top places spending triple this place lives up to their name. Truly a slice of paradise for the cost you can not complain about. Id come weekly if I made the time :) 10/10 thank you ! will be back :) read more

Not relaxing at all. People working there talking loud, phones ring. My masseuse was a nice girl but she really was not good at all. Made my neck pain worse, gave me a headache from massaging my head way too hard... nit enough pressure on other parts and too much pressure on more delicate parts. NEVER going back! Terrible and a waste of my money and time read more

Good place, clean and calming. Got a Swedish massage and it was great. The price point was also good too. read more

This is a PSA. This is not a great place if: You value your time and expect the service provider to also respect your time. I had my last two appointments cancelled/told to come back hours later AFTER I arrived for my scheduled services. First time, ok, it can happen. Second time (and the man at the reception claiming that I never made the appointment until I showed him the texts and then switching the story to "the texts didn't count" because he wasn't responsible), I'm never ever coming back. They consistently overbook to maximize profit, and the customer is somehow left to deal with it. This is a great place if: You don't have much demands on your time, and you can afford to waste time/fuel driving back and forth (or walk, scoot or bike) to get a service that you may or may not actually get. In the interest of fairness and full disclosure, the massages (if you actually get to have one) are actually quite good. read more

Professional, Massage Palacio offers a wide-variety of massage services. Want a softer type of massage? Get the Swedish. Want a deep-tissue intense massage targeting certain joint pain? Get the deep-tissue massage. And if you want to try a hybrid of both, there's also a unique hot stone massage and aromatherapy, etc. Usually, when it comes to the Thai massages, I feel their best services are associated with their super-ultra-mega high-octane, rubs. Therefore, I always purchase the Deep-tissue. Customer be forewarned though, this is not for the faint of heart. The therapist will iron out the knots and those soreness zones with such an overly derMatic intense technique, that perhaps you might have to adjust the intensity level; dialing it back from a 9 or a 10 to a 6 or 7. And while this massage is a bit more expensive than other comparable Thai massages in the area, I feel my therapist was a lot more precise in her masseuse technique enough that it can justify the premium. A 90 minute deep-tissue is 95$, plus a tip. In all, you probably should total the bill to $115 at the very least. The main weakness: This place has one weakness that is quite conspicuous and can be irritating those that want complete relaxation: Rooms are not closed fully. Meaning, there's a partition separating the main hallway to every massage room. So, you're going to hear every customer patronizing and defraying the cost of their bill, and other non-distinct chatters of the ambient noises. If you came here for a deep-tissue, this may or may not be a problem, because relaxation is secondary to the 'healing' 'adjustment' factor. But if you're coming here to relax (possibly with a softer Swedish massage), you may find this downside so unappealing, that it's not really conducive to a fully relaxed experience and you might want to try another parlor more closed system. read more

I haven't been back since covid, and it was so great to see that they are still in business. April was my masseuse and the massage was amazing. The people who work here are so kind and caring. I am happy to support them. The services are also so reasonable, less expensive than other massage places offering the same services. Highly recommended. Also, any bad reviews about this place are ridiculous and fake. I have been seeing April for over 10 years and everything at this place is above-board. read more

Give me deep tissue or give me death. I've been coming here for years and see Alex every time. I can't get over her hand strength and how she maintains pressure throughout the hour long massage. Heaven!!! read more

So happy I found this place conveniently located and with easy parking and simple to make a same-day appointment. Most importantly, this massage was perfect. The Thai lady named Alex mixed in deep tissue and a little Thai stretching and food pressure with a smooth relaxing style. I can't wait to go back. read more

Sadly I'm leaving a bad review and I didn't even have work done here! I go to the gym next door and wanted to support a business in close proximity. I made an appointment for 7pm and set aside time in my day. I receive a text message to come in later. As an explanation, they said the person before me came in later than expected. Sorry, but that isn't my problem! Everybody knows if you live in LA that time is a value not to be effed with. read more

I wouldn't say that I had high expectations of The Massage Palacio, but seeing that one of the Yelpers wrote they provide the best massages in LA and maybe even Thailand, I was hopeful to get some relief from all the muscle pain I've been enduring due to packing and moving. My partner and I came here on a Sunday afternoon and found the premises cleaner than most Thai massage places. We both requested for deep tissue massage - his massage therapist was Zina and mine was Zara. Right off the bat, I could tell that my partner was going to get a better massage than me. Before starting the massage, Zina asked my partner which areas he would like to focus on. Zara did not bother to say anything, so I volunteered the information without her asking. On to the actual massage. Zara never bothered to check in with me at any point of the massage. She would alternate between lightly stroking me with her fingers and stabbing me really hard with her elbow. There was zero consistency in her pressure. I gave her feedback throughout the massage, but she would simply adjust to the other extreme and this was extremely frustrating. I've never had a worse massage. After the massage, the lady at the reception asked if we enjoyed the service. I told her the truth that my massage was terrible and asked for my therapist's name so I could make sure not to get her as my therapist should we decide to return. She said sorry, but charged me full price for the service anyway. I never ever do this, but I only tipped Zara 10% - purely because the massage itself was cheap to begin with and I felt bad to not tip at all. 3 stars only because my partner enjoyed his massage. If you're looking for a good and affordable massage, I recommend Thai Sabai or Mendme. read more

This place is incredible. My buddy and I decided to get a massage. We came here to give it a try. First of all you get your own individual room. I believe they have couples room as well Anyway, long story short I feel incredible. Everyone was kind and professional. I got the Thai massage. It was incredible. I'll feel this tomorrow but that's ok. read more

This is perhaps the best massage place I've ever been to. I've been hooked on them for 10+ years. Highly recommend and a little sad to do so because I know it will become busy! read more

Amazing massage place. Come here for the last 5 years and all the massage therapist here are amazingly good. Highly recommend read more

I've been to The Massage Palacio two times now. Both times, I was able to call in and get an appointment for later that day. I got the combination massage both times by different masseuses, both of which left me sore the next day! I would say that I'm satisfied with my experiences here, but something about them lacks memorability. In fact, the most memorable thing about this establishment is their abundance of signs reminding me not to inquire about sex. I would still come here in the future, just out of convenience - the location and hours are good, they take credit card (for a small fee), it's easy to make an appointment, and the massage is pretty decent. read more

I was recently here for a lunch hour massage. So close to work! I had no idea something so good was just a few blocks away. My neck and back were killing me, so I did a little research only to discover this little gem. I walked over during my lunch hour and was helped right away. That $39/hour deal is makes it very hard to pass up a massage. My angel/massuer was Cindy (If I remember correctly). I had her work on my neck and back, and it was incredible. She's super friendly too. I was still half asleep when I walked back to the office. Sadly, I was half asleep the entire afternoon lol. I'll have to save my massages for my days off or when there's not much going on in the office for that day. I'll be back very soon! read more

I've been a regular customer for almost 2 years, some of the best massages I've had anywhere. When the shutdown hit I missed massages so much. They wear masks the entire time, the rooms are very private and have a plastic shower curtain in the doorways. If you book between 11am-2pm they offer discounted rates currently $39/hr or $59 for 90min which is what I get. Try a few different therapists to find the massage you like best, then you can request them each time. So happy they are open and within walking distance. read more

I have tried a few different massage therapists at The Massage Palacio, and all of them have proven to be very professional, and very good at their job. I am defiantly a happy customer, and will be going back for more massage sessions :) Oh, and the front desk staff are very polite and friendly. Thanks again ladies :) read more

Best massage place ever. I went to so many different massage places and nothing is like this one. they are friendly proficientAnd skilled. Shout out to Nadia. the place is fairly clean. I definitely recommend this place. read more

Holy moly the deep tissue massage was wonderful!! Thank you for taking care of my achy muscles :)

Been going here for 7 years! This place is consistent and clean. Always walk out feeling great!

Jenny was fantastic! Highly recommend this place if you need a massage. Can not beat the quality of massage for the price.

This place is a hidden gem!!! Amazing massage and phenomenal prices!!! So happy this place is down the street from my house!!!
