The only thing missing is food options -- hope they add some in the future.

My husband loved it. The massages are a little rough, so I asked for them to be a little softer. But, I'm kinda a baby with massages, like I don't book deep tissue type of massages. The masseuse went on top of my back on all fours lol. I started laughing when she did that, she started to giggle too. I told my husband she was so petite I didn't mind it. The spa areas were very clean and aesthetically pleasing. I didn't bring a bathing suit, so I couldn't use the co-ed area which looked so peaceful and relaxing. The spa offered shorts for men, so my husband utilized the co-ed hot tubs. He said he was the only person in the co-ed area and men's side. In the women's area, where they had the hit tubs, women are nude. So, it's a little stressful at first because I never been to a spa where people are nude. But, I eventually got comfortable and enjoyed the hot tubs. The women's are that had the clay room, salt room, and sauna required robes. That area was so relaxing. The clay area was my favorite.

I'd like to think of myself as somewhat of a spa enthusiast. A connoisseur might be a stretch, but…read morea spa lover nonetheless. The Spa Hyu has quickly earned a special place in my heart and may have officially become my new favorite Korean spa. Some of the K-spas I've loved over the years have unfortunately become overcrowded and overpriced. I booked the body scrub and massage package for $130, which includes about a 20 minute body scrub followed by a 40 minute massage. While it's certainly not the cheapest treatment out there, I think it's an excellent value for the quality of the experience. The body scrub left my skin incredibly soft, and the massage afterward was the perfect balance of therapeutic and relaxing. Another detail I really appreciated was the quality of the products they have guests to use to shower before using the amenities. It left my hair and skin feeling squeaky clean without that stripped, dry feeling. Instead, my skin felt incredibly soft afterward. If you fall in love with the products like I almost did, they're available for purchase at the front desk. One of my favorite perks is that spa admission is included with your service. Otherwise, admission is just $35, which is well worth it if you're looking to spend a few hours unwinding. The co-ed area (spa uniform required) features a restaurant, several heated therapy rooms with varying temperatures, and plenty of comfortable spaces to lounge or even take a nap between sessions. I'm a sucker for aesthetics and I love the design elements they used throughout the space. The facility overall is clean, peaceful, and well maintained, making it easy to lose track of time. Whether you're treating yourself to a service or simply enjoying the amenities for the day, it's a wonderful place to recharge.

This spa experience was okay, but not great…read more First, the good. Valet parking is available for $4. The spa treatments were the redeeming part, even though they were inconvenient to book. More on that later. I ended up getting the Buff (body scrub) & Aroma Massage. As someone who exfoliates almost daily, I didn't expect to get much out of the exfoliating part, but that woman scrubbed off my sins from a past life. That was THE most thorough exfoliation I've ever experienced. My skin was so smooth afterward. Every time she splashed warm water on me to wash away the dead skin, I felt refreshed. At the end of the service, she even gave me the exfoliating glove she'd used during the service. After the scrub, she applied the most hydrating face mask to my slightly sunburned face. After the scrub, she applied a hydrating face mask that my slightly sunburned skin desperately needed. While it dried, she performed my massage using what smelled like eucalyptus oil. The massage was thorough & occasionally intense but overall, I felt amazing. My only concern was sanitation. Services are performed completely nude, & I would've preferred to see the table sanitized in front of me or at least know what products were being used between guests. It was a little uncomfortable knowing someone else's most intimate parts had been on that table moments earlier. The café on the second floor has a decent variety of Korean food, water, juices, smoothies, & cold-pressed juices. I grabbed an apple, ginger & beet juice that was spicy in the best way. At $10, it was cheaper than many cold-pressed juices I've had elsewhere. That's about where the positives end because unfortunately, this is not a great place to relax. I was hoping for an outdoor pool (this is LA, after all). Nope. Just a rooftop deck. The "Ice Room" was about 57 degrees. Cool, but not cold. What WAS cold, however, was the water dripping on me from the ceiling. The Clay Ball Room is a death trap. Nearly everyone who entered after me either fell or almost fell. One poor woman went down so fast she didn't even know what happened. They really need signage warning guests about the slip & fall risk & explaining how to enter safely. I also expected more relaxation rooms. There were only one or two beyond the main spaces. The second-floor common area wasn't the quiet retreat I expected. Despite signs asking guests to keep their voices down, loud conversations were everywhere & no staff seemed interested in enforcing the rules. I thought I'd have better luck in the women-only spa area. Just when I found a quiet spot in the wet sauna, a staff member barged in & told everyone to leave so they could spray something into the air. We were completely naked, the steam is so thick you can barely see a few inches in front of you, & I was just starting to drift into a light sleep when the door flew open & we were told to get out. There was no explanation, no calm communication, & no indication whether this was routine maintenance or an emergency. Even afterward, nobody explained what was being sprayed or why. If this is routine maintenance, there should be signage letting guests know services may be interrupted throughout the day. And if there was such urgency to spray whatever product was being used, it raises questions about whether guests had been been exposed to something concerning. The wet sauna is also another place where hot water drips from the ceiling onto unsuspecting patrons. Very unpleasant & frankly pretty gross. The women's-only section includes a hot tub, warm tub & cold plunge. Unfortunately, I don't believe these pools are cleaned as thoroughly or frequently as they should be. I noticed visible buildup along the tile line at the water's edge, the kind of thing that shouldn't be there if the pools are being properly maintained. Anyone sitting their most intimate parts on those tile seats does so at their own risk. As I mentioned earlier, booking services here is a pain. There are signs advertising treatments but no clear guidance on where to sign up. Helpful patrons told me to go to the front desk, so I had to shower, dry off, get dressed & head upstairs. Then, despite my credit card being attached to my wristband, I couldn't use the wristband to pay. I had to go all the way back to the locker room to retrieve my card. So inconvenient. At my local Korean spa, there's a concierge in the locker room who handles all bookings. If that's not feasible here, at least install a kiosk so guests can book services without leaving the spa area. Online booking would also help, but I couldn't find that option on the website. My intention was to spend the entire day here before heading to my 11:30 pm flight. Instead, I left several hours early because I was so unnerved by the disruptions & disappointed by the limited relaxation options. I'm glad this wasn't my first Korean spa experience because it definitely wouldn't have inspired me to come back.

I have been to many Korean spas and I must say Hugh Spa was by far the best massage and body scrub…read moreexperience I've ever had. My masseuse was amazing. You could tell she was very thoughtful with her touch and technique throughout the entire session. She was quiet, professional, and gave the perfect amount of pressure during both the massage and scrub, especially on the pressure points. Everything flowed so smoothly and felt incredibly relaxing. My 1.5 hour massage honestly felt like 2 hours in the best way possible because I was so relaxed and immersed in the experience. My skin felt incredibly soft and rejuvenated afterward. I especially loved the hot honey milk she poured and massaged all over my body. It felt absolutely amazing and made the experience feel extra luxurious and calming. Although Hugh Spa is on the smaller side, it still has enough amenities to enjoy and unwind. The only thing I wish they had was an ice bath, but they do have an ice room which definitely helps. Also, the front staff was very sweet, welcoming, and kind from the moment I walked in, which made the experience even better. Thank you Hugh Spa for finally making me believe in massages again.

My friend and I booked the Goddess package, which is the most complete. You arrive early to soak in the hot tubs (which were not as hot as my last review indicated), and then are taken back to the wet massage area. After a very thorough scrub and wash, you are massaged, and you also have your hair washed, and they do an anti-aging face mask. It was about $220, which is a little more expensive than I remember, but that's about an hour and forty-five minutes of service. I did feel like if I went back, I'd probably try one of the shorter services. You don't have to have cash for a tip, because they put the tip on your bill, and you can pay with your credit card. I didn't hang out in any of the saunas, just in the mood for a hot tub. They did have a nice, tranquil outside area as well. Also, they had a cafe that had some snacks and water, and also a sign saying you can order food. I didn't get the name of the person who did my service, but she was great! She was very friendly.

A month in advance, I booked what I understood to be a reflexology foot massage for Father's Day. I'd been walking over 20,000 steps a day all week, my calves were sore, and I had been looking forward to having my feet worked on for weeks. The massage lasted 85 minutes. Throughout the treatment, I kept wondering when they were going to start working on my feet. They never did. Aside from minimal contact, my feet were essentially untouched. When the massage ended, I assumed I must have misunderstood what reflexology was. After the treatment, I went to the front desk and asked whether I could book a foot massage that same day because I still wanted one. The receptionist pointed to the reflexology treatment on the menu and said that was the foot massage. I told her I had just received that treatment and no one had touched my feet. That's when she informed me that she had accidentally marked me down for a shiatsu massage instead. I don't know how that happened. I booked online a month in advance. At that point, I was extremely frustrated. I had waited a month for this appointment, paid nearly $200, and spent 85 minutes receiving a completely different treatment than the one I specifically scheduled. What made it even more frustrating was that I also had a Pure Bliss treatment later that day, one of the spa's more expensive services. That treatment already included a back massage. I had intentionally planned the day around receiving both a full-body massage and a dedicated foot massage. Instead, because of this persons error, I essentially paid for two almost identical massages while the part of my body that actually needed attention received almost none. I asked whether there was any way the spa could make the situation right. I was told management would discuss it and let me know by the end of the day. When I checked back after my final treatment, I was informed that they would give me a 20% discount. The problem is that Olympic Spa already adds a mandatory 20% gratuity to treatments. So the "discount" amounted to removing the gratuity rather than reducing the price of the service itself. I still paid full price for a treatment I never requested and never intended to book. What disappointed me most wasn't the scheduling mistake. Mistakes happen. It was the way the mistake was handled after it was discovered. I never received the treatment I booked, the issue wasn't identified until after the service was complete, and the proposed solution felt more symbolic than meaningful. Sadly, this experience also reflects a broader decline I've noticed over the years. Olympic Spa has never quite been the same since COVID. I understand the challenges businesses have faced and I'm genuinely impressed that Olympic survived when so many others didn't. But longtime customers have watched prices climb while amenities have steadily disappeared. Day passes that once cost around $20 are now closer to $60. The waxing services are gone. The nail salon is gone. The kitchen is gone. Even the pricing on the website can feel misleading, with member pricing emphasized while the actual non-member cost is significantly higher. For years I happily overlooked those changes because I loved Olympic Spa. This experience changed that though. Father's Day can already be an emotional day for many people, especially those who've lost theirs. I had planned this visit weeks in advance as a day of relaxation and self-care, and instead I left feeling frustrated, dismissed, and taken advantage of. After more than a decade as a customer, I won't be returning.
