Lucyana made my skin glow. She introduced me to new products and patiently explained why those products would be good for me. She never pushed me to purchase but I DID and I am happy that I did. read more

Peaceful, lovely spot - Marianna was a joy! Very calming experience, highly recommended

Wonderful experience!! Deep tissue massage with Maureen and Essential facial with Caroline. Both were fantastic. Friendly staff, reasonable prices - I will be back. read more

I first learned about the spa last year when coworkers gave me a gift card. Everyone is always very nice and courteous. Spa is small but nice and clean. Great services offered and skin care products. read more

Joanna is amazing! Pleasant, professional and knowledgeable, she gives a relaxing facial that includes head, shoulder, and hand massage. The facility is clean, and they take proper precautions to protect the health of their clients. read more

I had a great first experience at Upper West Spa. I came in for laser hair removal, and was a bit nervous about it. Joanna immediately put me at ease. She was very warm and reassuring, and insisted that there was no pressure and that we could take breaks or even do it in multiple days if I wanted. She performed the procedure expertly, explained aftercare, and was responsive over email when I had questions in the following days. I really liked the coziness of Upper West Spa, the friendly staff, and of course Joanna's warmth and professionalism. They take COVID precautions seriously, which I very much appreciated. I'm happy to go back for more laser sessions, and will definitely look into massage and other treatments that the spa offers. read more

Libia was wonderful and Helena is the best facialist I know!

Great services, very knowledgeable staff and they are taking all safety practices very seriously.

Friendly front desk. Good assessment of skincare needs. Good recommendations for products but not hard sell. Look forward to future visit.

They are the best spa Everyone is all long time expert Love them. Must try their facial. read more

I love this salon. It is so clean, small and safe, with only one nail technician working. Excellent service and reasonable prices and lovely staff. read more

I had a wonderful Swedish massage (thank you to Magdalena) at this top-quality neighborhood spa. The professionalism, know-how, and friendliness of the entire staff (incl. massage therapists, beauty / cosmetic technicians - shoutout to Lucyna too who I haven't seen in years - office managers, etc.) are examples of what makes this place so great. In addition, the facility itself is well setup/designed to maximize on "Manhattan" space, while providing clients with luxury and comfort. read more

Lucyna is meticulous! She is the only Aesthetician I've ever tried who gets every last eyelash & brow hair when I have my eyelashes and eyebrows dyed, so I've been going to her for years. She is also just a lovely person and lovely to talk to. read more

I've been coming to Upper West Spa since it opened. Joanna and her team has helped keep my skin youthful and clean (I LOVE the Jet Peel Facial). I've been back several times during COVID (my Aunt has as well) and feel incredibly safe with all the measures UWS has taken. I'm so grateful this boutique spa is back up and running. read more

I recently moved to the UWS and have been searching for a new massage place. I had a fantastic 60 minute Swedish massage with Magdalena. She was very kind and very skilled! The room was small but it was clean and had a dark, candlelit experience with peaceful music. Unfortunately, this is not the type of place where you can sit in a robe before and after treatment to relax. But if you need a massage and don't need the frills, you can get that here! The staff members were friendly and offered beverages and little snacks while you wait. If you go to their website, you can get 10% off your first visit which was a nice touch! I'd recommend this place, I will surely return, and I want to send my husband here. Enjoy! read more

Marta is an excellent facialist and her massages during the "heavenly facial" are out of this world. I look and feel 5 years younger and am planning my next one. No to facelifts and Botox but Yes to regular facials. read more

Joanna and her team are always great. services are well priced, she is very professional, always on top of new treatments, executed so well, with utmost care, never rushed. the space is a little oasis, a great treat for myself and my skin. I have been going to her for 25+ years and would not think of going to any other facialist! read more

I just received the best facial of my life with Joanna! I'm so thrilled with my experience. I will be back monthly to keep a healthy regimen going :) Joanna gave me a personalized facial along with the jet peel transdermal infusion. This was my first experience with this treatment, and you can really feel how effective this facial is. I received compliments on my skin all day afterwards- and days to follow. You absolutely GLOW. I'm so happy to have found this spa! read more

Everyone here is so pleasant! Staff have been attentive and worked with me to create a customized spa experience that suited my needs (applies for both massage and facial). Covid best practices are taken extremely seriously here as well, making me feel comfortable and willing to return even during these uncertain times! Keep up the excellent work!!! read more

My neighborhood Oasis! Upper West Side spa is my place to recharge and de stress during week. The staff is friendly, the facilities spotless and no detail is over looked. Whenever I walk out of here after my massage I feel refreshed and rejuvenated. read more

Very professional and knowledgeable team. I get my facials and massage there. Clean and beautiful space. Well run and managed. Always on time, great follow up, and super caring. This place is a gem. read more

Dolores and Magdalena are my go-to's but I have no doubt that everyone at this salon is terrific. They all come from Feline's Spa and understand what it means to consistently provide quality service. read more

Absolutely amazing experience and deep tissue massage. Felt safe for COVID and reasonably priced. I've already recommended Mandy to my friends! read more

Very nice person and great massage. Came with a lot of tension on my upper and lower back. Left relax and the next day was even better ! read more

I came here for a 60 min massage and it was one of the best I've ever had! The spa is immaculate, the staff are friendly, and the massage itself was customized to my liking! I would certainly recommend this place to anyone passing through the UWS.. you will not be disappointed read more

I've followed Joanna from spa to spa over the past 20 years and I'm thrilled that she now has a spa of her own. She is the Best!

Lucyna at Upper West Spa is simply AMAZING!!! I have been going to Lucyna for regular facials for over 8 years, and I cannot recommend her MORE! I've seen other facialists while traveling, including ones at various 4 Seasons, Mandarin Orientals, and at Canyon Ranch...and I can safely say that Lucyna beats out the competition! Even when I moved way downtown for a few years, I made the trek uptown just to see Lucyna--because she is THE BEST! She caters her facials for your specific skin, and also takes in to account any additional factors that may be affecting your skin on a particular visit (stress, lovely lady hormones, seasonal issues, etc). She does everything in her power to make you as comfortable as possible, from changing the music, to adjusting the table or room temperature. She is meticulous and gentle with her extraction technique--I feel completely clear after my facial, and yet my skin never looks beat up which is a plus if I'm going somewhere directly after. She always suggests a peel, and my skin glow peaks at about 5 days after the facial and continues it's peak for about 10 days thereafter. Her face and decolletage massage technique is incredible and I sometimes find it more relaxing than a one hour full body massage! I feel confident that my skin is in it's best shape possible because of my regular visits to Lucyna. I've followed Lucyna over the years, and most recently visited her at The Upper West Spa which opened in Fall 2018. The staff all used to work at the now closed Feline Day Spa, which is where I first met Lucyna. Upper West Spa is a street level space on Amsterdam Ave, with an intimate and sophisticated vibe. It's extremely clean, they use (and sell) top of the line skin care products, and there's a calming feel as soon as you walk in the door. Overall, it's a no frills spa experience, which I personally prefer when going for a facial or quick massage. So if you're looking for the whole robe plus steam room extended day spa experience, go elsewhere. But if you want to enjoy a calming cup of tea followed by a FANTASTIC and well priced facial to keep your skin looking fresh and youthful, go see Lucyna at Upper West Spa!...and then continue seeing her about every 3-4 months!! read more

I'm joining the bandwagon. Let me add to the praise for the staff at Upper West Spa, particularly Lucyna, who I started seeing at Feline Spa years ago. When it closed, I've followed her everywhere. At the moment for me it's all about her expert bikini waxing and brow waxing/tinting -- looking forward to adding other services. When you read reviews of aestheticians, you never know for sure what to believe, but the true test -- look at all the raves from long-time clients of the ladies of Upper West Spa. The loyalty says it all. read more

If you're looking for a wonderful spa with kind, professional employees, look no further -- go ahead and book your appointment at Upper West Spa! It's a lovely, calm space. Lucyna, Marta, and Joanna have treated several generations of women in my family, and we absolutely adore them. And honestly, I can think of no greater sign of confidence than the fact that for 15+ years I have trusted these wonderful women to wax my face. In short, they're the best! Go support these wonderful human beings! read more

This is where many of the ladies from Feline, the late great spa on West 75th Street, have landed. They're scrappy and went into business for themselves. They still do top notch work, great for waxing and facials. They're in a small space, but the vibe is clean, bright and chill. They're really great people too! read more

Great pedicures with Dolores. It's a different chair but comfortable and Dolores will do everything you need to get situated. I have an injury and she manages it with dignity and delivers first class attention to my toes and feet. Much better quality than your local nail store. I've never looked back. read more

Exact what I needed. Extraction and chemical peeling are not something I would do it myself and I really don't need extras. If the service says extractions and done well, I'm just pleased. read more

Joanna is sensational! If you are thinking about doing laser hair removal I highly recommend her, she systematically extinguished every unwanted follicle.It's ridiculous do anything other then laser in this day and age, a game changer. read more

If you're looking to up your skin game, come here. I have been seeing Marta for years and my skin has never looked better. I actually have strangers complimenting my skin! She is not pushy and won't try to upsell you or push products. Marta just knows exactly what she is doing so trust her when she recommends a treatment. My skin is extremely sensitive and used to break out from other facials - but not after I met Marta. And don't get me started on the head, neck and shoulder massage she also gives you. Pure heaven. Treat yourself - your skin will thank you! read more

A beautiful spa that is clean and relaxing. I have been a client of Lucyna's for many years following her from Feline's Spa. There is nobody else who makes facials more relaxing and comfortable than her. She always makes my skin feel amazing afterwards. She is very skilled and knowledgeable in skin care which is what got my attention. Her medical esthetician background as well as her many years of experience in this field which is over 25 years makes her my go to for skincare. She always has excellent advice on proper skin care especially for someone like me who has sensitive skin. I highly recommend this wonderful spa and Lucyna! read more
