As far as the look, compared to the hotel itself, the waiting room and powder room were a bit underwhelming. I booked the earliest appointment and they were out already out of champagne which was interesting (it was supposed to come with my service). And to note, if you book the earliest appointment, you can still arrive early. When I booked my massage for 11AM, considering the spa doesn't open until 11AM, I was under the impression that that's the earliest I could arrive. However the time I took to get ready was deducted from my massage which was a bummer but understandable per the policy. So don't be like me haha. They're only open Thurs-Sun so not much room to call for Q&A.

One word: Relaxing!…read more By the grace of G-O-D I was able to snag a massage cancellation as my own!! Working every Saturday and Sunday, I took advantage of my first weekend off with brunch and a spa evening at The Starling! The staff were very nice and accommodating. They made me feel comfortable before, during, and after my appointment. The amenities include your choice of infused water or hot tea to enjoy, secure lockers to place your belongings, robes and sandals for wearing around the facility, dry sauna with aromatherapy and a steam room/shower combo. I enjoyed a 90 minute massage with hot stones. It was customized to focus on my target areas and my LMT was great about checking in about pressures and temp of stones throughout. If you're interested in facials or mani/pedi. They offer those services as well. So happy I was able to use my spa finder gift cards to help pay for this relaxing experience. Afterwards, I enjoyed went to the bar located in the lobby (Latana Lounge) for small bites and a couple drinks. In true J fashion, I had the bartender whip up something from scratch. I love seeing their creativity flow! The Bang Bang shrimp was perfect! Check out my reel here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CxN7IKtgQaQ/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

I was 10 mins early, my appointment was @11:30am and the man that was on the nail side told me to take a seat on the black velvet chairs. I sat and saw there was a lady that was from an inspection place and there was a customer on a pedicure seat. The inspector is checking things off and the man walks away and she follows him, the woman on the seat tells me that they were just inspected and that nothing is clean and they don't clean any of the materials which I say well I hope this side is better. It's now 11:38am and I decide to google the number and call it she tells me she will let the front know I am there. Then a couple mins later in walks in my lady from the outside and said she ran behind and would take care of me after she used the bathroom. She walks me in to this curtain small room and tells me to change and out all my items in a bin for storing. Then we walk to the chair where I am able to lay down. I felt very rushed and she was going through the combing and sensing very quick like she was trying to catch up with time. After a while she did slow down just a bit to massage my scalp. I couldn't really relaxed and essentially also felt tense that at one point she said relax but I just wasn't enjoying it. The halo was used for about 5 mins and then I was taken to a small back room where she dried my hair and while finishing I saw crawling on the wall a cockroach. Which made me question how clean the rest of the place is and I know it's small but it was just not a great experience. I will not be backs I tried to take some pictures but I just wanted to leave at the end of it all. $147 was my final charge for lateness and crawling bug, not to mention my hair was super dry.

I have been a loyal client of Sole Spa for well over a decade, and when I recently moved back to…read moreAtlanta, one of the things I genuinely looked forward to most was returning for regular massages. Unfortunately, my most recent experience was deeply disappointing and left me feeling embarrassed rather than relaxed. About ten minutes into my massage, the masseuse asked if I was pregnant. As any woman who is NOT pregnant (or trying to get pregnant or miscarried) can understand, that type of comment can be incredibly hurtful and immediately changes the tone of what should be a calming and restorative experience. It is simply not an appropriate question to ask a client unless the client has already disclosed that information themselves. I brought my concerns to the gentleman at the front desk afterward, hoping for a more thoughtful or empathetic response. Instead, I was met with a passive acknowledgment that my "suggestion" would be passed along. Respectfully, this should not be framed as a suggestion from a customer, but rather as a matter of professionalism and client care. If pregnancy status is relevant for treatment purposes - which I understand it is - then that information should be gathered discreetly through intake forms ahead of time - not through personal assumptions made during a massage appointment. What should have been a relaxing and enjoyable return to a spa I once loved instead became an uncomfortable and hurtful experience. Whether the remainder of the massage was objectively below the standard I remembered or simply overshadowed by the interaction, I cannot say. What I do know is that I left feeling disappointed, self-conscious, and far from relaxed. I sincerely hope Sole Spa takes this feedback seriously, because long-time clients should leave feeling cared for and respected - never humiliated.

My experience at sole spa was unfortunately pretty subpar on this visit. My husband made…read moreappointments for two full body massages for us and on the website he requested that we be placed in a private room. When we arrived we were told they're unable to honor requests because they don't allow reservations of the private rooms. This is not clear on the website. So we were given massages in the common room area. The massage started with us both fully clothed - we had to ask towards the middle of the massage if we could at least remove our tops. I didn't know their full body massages were given fully clothed. It was pretty uncomfortable at times because they were reaching underneath our garments and stretching out our shirts and still unable to get directly to the muscles they were targeting. It also would've been nice to be told to take our jewelry off for that same reason, reaching underneath my necklace and my husband's chain kind of ruined the experience for the both of us. Lastly, for clients who are African American, offering the courtesy of at least asking if we'd like our hair touched during the massage would've been appreciated.

My friends and I went to Utopia on Valentine's Day to get massages as a part of my bestie's…read morebachelorette trip to Atlanta. We all absolutely loved this place! We got foot and shoulder massages where you sit in a really comfy chair and while your neck and shoulders are getting massaged, you soak your feet in hot, very soothing water. You can choose a bath salt to add to the water. I got a combination of lavender and eucalyptus for mine. The chair moves to different angles throughout the massage so they can get to different areas of your back, shoulders, and neck. We also had hot stones and hot towels on our legs. It was all amazing. Just something to note is that at this place you will not be unclothed and they recommend wearing either a tube top or a tank top so they can get fully to your neck and shoulders. They do have tank tops there just in case you need one. It was seriously one of the best massage experiences I have ever had somewhere and I'm very much a person who didn't think I liked massages as much as other people do. If you do decide to take a group, I would definitely plan to call them well in advance because they will book up, as they should because our whole experience was so wonderful. Also parking was really easy as was the check in when we got there. Overall, a wonderful experience!

Today I had a 70 minute massage that was not relaxing. Unfortunately, the sweet young lady who serveiced me seemed confused-lots of pauses- inconsistent, and did not give enough pressure despite me asking at the beginning of my service. Utopia is known for so many great things, but especially the foot massage and it was lackluster. I have neuropathy in my feet and having a foot massage every now and again does help with blood circulation and just overall feels better. This experience did nothing for me. Again, my technician was sweet despite our language barrier her kindness shined through, but her abilities were lackluster and not what I'm used to from utopia. My concerns have been given to leadership. Hopefully I'll come back and choose someone else. Today's visit was much quieter than my last and the establishment is always Zen and clean.

They start with warm patches that help you settle in and unwind before the massage begins. The massage therapist had incredibly strong hands and did a great job working through all the tension in my feet.

To finish, they sit you up for a quick back massage and stretch, which leaves you feeling completely refreshed. You walk out feeling like a new person. Definitely worth every penny.

Second, the massage itself was not bad, I would say 6/10. They started off great on upper back, neck pressure but when laying down for feet, it was like opposite. So massage was OK. But overall the room is noisy, the staff is noisy, the front is busy with no flow of who is checking in or out. I mentioned this to the gal up front when paying, she said "how's everything?" I said the massage was okay but it's too noisy in the room. She says to me "what?" Because it was too noisy she couldn't hear me. Isn't that ironic.

I have to get their signature foot massage at least once month. Ive never had a bad experience here no matter who I get booked with. The room is dimly lit, and they offer you a blanket and ear plugs. The foot massage starts with a warm foot soak in bath salts of your choosing. They offer to start with a head rub and get to going on your neck and shoulders. Once they are done they cover your eyes give you a warm neck pillow and chances are you may nod off as they get started on the foot massage ! Seriously it's just so relaxing - I highly recommend.

Here's just a quick overview of this fabulous facility: 1) innovations implemented such as high-frequency treatment 2) fresh menu with plenty services 3) very useful estheticians who love to share information 4) clinical grade formulas suitable for all ethnicities 5) careful and considerate of products, hygiene, and time My esthetician performed the vitamin c peel and added the electrode wand to my service. I've had multiple peels and not one time has it been added to my neck. The face and neck have the same thickness and usually the same shade. It makes sense for the neck to be an area apart of the peel but it's not a norm. It is great they include the neck in the peel service! My service: The peel has a robust gas-like smell, but it's not an aggressive peel. The esthetician was cautious of the number of strokes in one area and time; this is very important! She was very concerned not to burn me. She created a vaseline barrier around sensitive areas such as my nostrils, eyes, brow bone, lips, so there was less intensity to my senses with this precaution. She activated the peel with water and lightly placed a thin clothe damped with water to initiate it. After just a minute or so it was removed. Following my peel was the oxygenating high-frequency treatment for congested skin and dehydrated skin. There was a mesh covered on my skin; I imagine for hygiene purposes and possibly the strength of the currents, so there was no direct contact with my face. Afterwards, she added the marine mask which she briefly massaged into my skin although it is naturally deep penetrating. I appreciated this gesture. She kept on the mask while she moved down to my shoulders. She then performed a decollete massage and the oil smoothed on my skin like butter on hot toast. She was very skilled in working on my shoulders and neck. I enjoyed this much-needed facial, and they've won me over. I'm excited about my next trip in the coming weeks. I give this joint a solid 4.5 stars! Improvements: The Q-tip incident, ahhh... don't double dip, you can cross contaminate! It slipped the esthetician's mind. The moisturizer feels heavier than it looks. Actually, it looks like a satin finish worn. There's no shine, no dryness; I have a beautiful glow... I'm split on how I feel about this moisturizer.
