I had a total day of pampering at such a beautiful, peaceful and very clean spa. I experienced a 30 minute message with my choice of oil, facial, manicure and full pedicure. I was so relaxed that I drifted off to LaLa land. I have vey calloused feet and the technician took her time. I have new feet!!!!! read more

I can't believe I haven't left a review here. Victorian Day Spa is an absolute gem. Clean, calming, a true retreat. I've come pregnant, postpartum, and everything in between and every time I feel 1000% better. I will never go anywhere else for a massage. They never leave me sore or in pain like I've experienced elsewhere so they are my go-to. Also, their facials are top tier. read more

Victorian Day Spa is easily the best place in West Hartford for a much needed spa day. I've been going for a few years now and have never had an issue. My recent encounter was no different - I left happy, relaxed, and excited to come back! My partner and I booked an aromatherapy couples massage and was supported by Joanie and Catalina. I've had Joanie in the past and was so glad to have her once more. Joanie is so in tune with her clients and so considerate of their needs. I truly felt heard and supported with my needs. My partner loved his massage and was surprised by the work done on him. He felt a lot of his issues were addressed and left in a super positive mood! The spa is very clean, even the bathroom! I can't wait to come back! read more

This is an amazing spa whether you're looking for a day of escape & pampering or a quick mani-pedi. I went in for the 'Feel Beautiful' package which included Silky hand & feet treatment with manicure & pedicure, a massage and deep cleansing facial. I was thoroughly impressed by not only the quality of services but also the overall attitude of the staff. They're friendly, sweet & efficient [shoutout to Izabela, Karla & Joanie]. The soothing decor along with the overall calming vibe really helped me relax and de-stress. I'll definitely be going back. The place also has parking just an FYI. read more

Victorian Day Spa is my family's go-to for spa getaways. They are always accommodating and have the friendliest staff. I most recently had a deep-tissue massage with Jessica and was thrilled. She was conscious of my comfort level the whole time and was able to work out some tough knots. I am not from the area, but would return to see Jessica! read more

I will preface this review by saying that this is massage review. I have been going to Catalina for the past 4 months. She is a complete rockstar and the best massage therapist that I have ever been to. She is patient and listens well and always focuses on the problem areas. She's extremely professional and avoids small talk or unnecessary banter to really give you the zen that's required for a massage. Her hands are magic and I have recommended her to so many of my friends. I will continue to be a loyal Catalina fan. 10/10. read more

I registered online and made an appointment for a massage and Jessica was my massage therapist. She was very professional, she had very strong hands and listened to my needs and worked out my back and shoulders. I would definitely recommend her for your next massage. I only gave four stars because there needs to be a sign on the front door telling you you're entering the right building, because this place looks like someone's house. read more

I had an excellent experience here! I love been looking for a great place to get a massage in West Hartford and this day spa didn't disappoint. Catalina was terrific. Plus- BIG bonus points for being able to make my appointment onlin me. read more

Love the couple's massage. Always leave feeling very good. Wish could afford to go every week.

So, I'm really on the fence with this rating.....To start, the good: it's a really pleasant location and has a wonderful spa-like feel. Liz was the esthetician that I saw for an acne facial and she was very nice and seemed extremely knowledgeable. However, the extraction completely ruined my face! When I came in, she commented on how my skin was already clear and asked why I wanted an acne facial. I explained that while my skin was clear at that time, it's really prone to breakouts and I wanted it for prevention, which she agreed to. The pictures that I'm posting with this review were taken 3 days after the facial and it's clear that my skin was made so much worse, rather than better (remember, no marks going in!). It's now been over 6 weeks and I still have some brown spots from her extractions. Anyway, I obviously wouldn't recommend getting an extraction done there, or really anything too sensitive, but I hesitated to give this place a really poor rating because it was a nice experience (other than the scaring). I would just be careful what you trust them with. I've wavered back and forth between 2 and 3 stars and landed on two, just to make sure that people are careful before going there so they don't end up worse off (as I did). read more

Shout out to Catalina! She gave me one of the top five massages I've had in my life!. Tip to toe she didn't miss a spot!

Very relaxing environment and beautiful interior design. The front desk was extremely accommodating and immediately offered tea/coffee and directed us to the rest room and offered to take our coats. The upstairs treatment rooms are lovely, clean, and warm. The background music is calming ocean waves -- excellent selection of music!!! The scent of the spa is calming and therapeutic. Best online booking system and very modern service to offer clients. Packages are well priced and offers a variety of treatments. I visit various spas around the world and Victorian Day Spa is high ranked. The facilities and the employees reflect my ranking. read more

After two great experiences here I've decided it will definitely be my go-to place for shellac manicures. Veronika did a great job both times and was particularly knowledgeable about different types of long wear polish and the benefits and downsides. To share a sliver of the story the brand CND created the idea of a polish that lasts two weeks and they are the definitely the best for long wear nails without having acrylics. Veronika did a great job putting the polish on evenly after shaping my nails and nice cuticle care. The best part was that it came off effortlessly two weeks later!!! She soaked in acetone for about 5 minutes and when she took the foil off it was flaking and already detached my nail. Unlike any other "gel" or long wear manicure I've had (probably about 10-15) I would say my nails looked the healthiest after this polish came off. This was definitely my number one benefit because I love my manicures but also want Heathy and strong nails to grow to medium length. As other reviewers have mentioned it's a delightful environment too! Served me tea upon arrival both times and it's relaxing and a nice "spa" experience even just for a manicure. As far as cost I find this particular service very reasonable. Other places charge at least $30 for inferior work so I am pleased to only spend an additional $5 plus tax and tip for the additional benefits of the relaxation and the healthy nails afterwards. I cannot speak for any other services yet but would consider trying them because of the nice people. In my pictures the very light pink color was the first one I had done and that is a pic from after 16 days of wear. The second is the new one just one day after. I hope CND continues to come out with more colors and I look forward to my next visit here! read more

The feng shui of the place is nice and relaxing, but the massage I got was a little too rough for my liking. I was very very sore for a few days, and I'm not typically sore after getting massages. Still though, nice place to go to to try and unwind. read more

I've been coming to Victorian Day Spa for a couple of years mainly for facials and massages here and there. I am never disappointed. All the ladies who I've had appts with are amazing, Izabela is my favorite! read more

Do not go to Roberto for a massage. He talked almost the whole time (about himself), made creepy comments about me, the massage HURT and when I said it hurt he laughed and said "wow you can't take pain huh", and overall made me feel the most uncomfortable I have ever felt in a massage. No one should ever feel this level of violated. I literally cried on my car ride home. The spa itself is lovely, it's very simple and staff is nice. But ladies, I truly urge you to stay away from the male masseuse. read more

A friend and I went here for massages and it was one of the best massage I've ever gotten. Staff is great, super friendly and so welcoming. Such a cute spa day. Only downfall is the loud cars outside. read more

Booked a Men's package for my boyfriend's birthday which included : facial, massage and pedicure. Inside was so clean and the atmosphere quite soothing. He enjoyed every bit of it, said he fell asleep during the massage. read more

I've had nothing but great experiences at Victorian Day Spa. I've had facials, manicures and pedicures, but mostly massages. I've gone religiously for a massage every couple of months the past year and I always choose Madelyn. She is amazing! Not only does she take the time to ask me what areas she should focus on, she remembers those areas the next time I come in and ensures she is tackling whatever new area needs care. Her massages are effective and I always feel relaxed once she's done. I appreciate her professionalism as well. I recommend Victorian Day Spa! read more

I first had an arm wax which was OK and I can't really complain. My leg wax was second and left strips of hair on my legs that I can obviously see, I have no idea how she did not! My Brazilian wax was last and TERRIBLE I have had over 20 Brazilian waxes in my life and this was the worst. She was laying the wax on in large strips and ripping them away. Because of this not all the hair was coming off and so she would wax one place more than 4 or 5 times which was very painful. She eventually ripped the skin in 3 places and I was so terribly bruised. I told her to stop when I realized that she was ripping my skin and not stopping the wax and I left bruised and bleeding in 3 places. Please don't go here. There are so many other BETTER places that will care for you. This was so awful! read more

I went for a bikini wax and as many of you know, it should take over 5 minutes. When I say my wax was done in 3 full size strips of wax and paper, I am dead serious and it was horrible! The girl who did the wax was so insensitive and didn't even leave the room for me to undress, she had me drop draw as she stood there. The wax was not the proper wax for bikini wax either. You shouldn't have to use paper strips to pull off the wax for your bikini area. It should be self pulling. The pain and redness afterwards was the worst I've had to date. I don't know how their other services are, but I don't plan on going back after my horrid wax experience. read more

HORRIBLE experience getting a simple regular manicure. A good portion of my skin was ripped off causing bleeding and pain which did not cease for a day and a half. I took pictures of my bloody nail and returned to simply ask for a refund. The girl at the counter was extremely rude when attempting to process my refund, and I STILL have not been refunded!!! I was honestly speechless and will not return. STAY away if you live in the West Hartford area and are looking for a reliable spa. This is not the one. A word of warning. read more

Loved my mani pedi. Relaxing environment. They take their time with you and only you. I subtracted a star because normally I love a quick shoulder massage after and also the pedicure chair didn't have a massager. Otherwise it was great! read more

I love this place. Every time I go I have a great experience. I have had numerous pedis and manicures. I have had 1 massage and 1 facial. Loved it. I have tried other places and none compare to this place. read more

Had a Brazilian with Johanna and am very pleased! She was quick, very little pain and the whole spa was very clean! She made small talk the whole time which always helps take my mind off what's going on! I will definitely be coming back to see Johanna! Also, compared to spas I've been to in the past, $50 is a GREAT price for a Brazilian! I am very pleased with the whole experience and the result! read more

Love all the services I have received here from Liz. I have always been very pleased with my pedicures waxing and facials! Liz makes sure each experience is relaxing and enjoyable. Couples messages her are wonderful as well! Penny and Kathy are great at helping you relax and enjoy your time together. My husband and I love this treat! Easy to make an appointment on line or by calling. Olivia is very professional and super friendly. Overall an awesome experience every time! read more

Victorian Day spa is the best! I've been going for about 5 years and have never had a bad experience. The massages and pedicures are great. Highly recommend! read more

Friendly and relaxing service. Was able to get an appointment for a massage/pedicure at the last minute. Mario did a phenomenal job with the massage and would recommend him again. Pedicure experience was okay, but have definitely had better experience elsewhere for cheaper. Overall though enjoyable experience and like their online booking system (easy to schedule an appointment). read more

I had such a great experience today!!! Penny really knows what she's doing. She listened to me perfectly and made sure I was comfortable. I would highly recommend her. One of the best deep tissue massages I've had. I feel brand knew and I'm so thankful. I'll be back for another for sure! I also got a pedicure and my nail tech was so friendly and dos a awesome job making my feet feel brand knew! Victorian day spa is very professional and has a wonderful knowledgable staff! read more

My favorite place for pedicures! Artemis is the best! Not only does she speak English she knows what she is doing and takes pride in her work! Callouses are no match for her! My feet feel amazing and my toes look awesome! read more

I was able to get in for a last minute massage after having a migraine for a few days. I had gone to this place for waxing before, so I figured I'd try it for massage. The spa is warm, clean and inviting. Mario was my therapist. He was professional and kind. I told him about my migraine and he was able to identify trigger points in my back and neck to apply pressure to. While at some times the pressure was uncomfortable, I definitely feel better today. read more

Absolutely love this place! It's a great place to come and relax. I really like the waxing expert that they have here, Artemis. She does a great job in cleaning and explaining the process of what she doing. I get my Brazilian done here. I felt super comfortable, although it was painful she was super quick and does a great job. The service is great, and the staff is so polite. They always offer you water, tea or coffee which I love. This spa isn't only great with their services but it's also beautiful inside. They also have a hairstylist incase you want to get your hair done. The stylist is separate from the spa services but it's very convenient. read more

I have been a customer of VDS for several years and still am always pleasantly surprised at the high level of customer service I experience with each visit. Complimenting their world-class professionalism is the warm and generous personality of all who work there. I've had everything from pre-natal massages to a super soothing mani/pedi and there's no place I'd rather go. read more

I have had both a massage and a spa pedicure here. The pedicure was just average and a little pricey. The massage on the other hand was excellent. I enjoy a very firm massage and I had a male massage therapist who used the perfect amount of pressure for my Swedish massage. The best massage I have ever had was at this little spa in Tennessee, but this one ran a close second. read more

I've used this salon for waxings several times. They are unusually fast but do the job well. The staff was very cold my first couple of visits but they have noticeably become friendlier over time. You can book online/through Yelp. If you book through their website you will get on a mailing list for coupons (can only be used Tuesday-Thursday). Gratuities are cash only which is a pain to remember. Parking lot is tiny but I've never had an issue. Overall, very high quality and reputable. read more

Came in for a much needed mani/pedi. The place is super cute and very clean. I ended up getting out of work late and was only able to have a pedicure, but they were so nice about getting me in the next day for my manicure and massage. The girls are all very sweet and make sure your taken care of. My mani pedi came out great! Polish was neat and the massage was amazing! Artemis did an amazing job with the pedicure, Liz was great with the manicure, and Joy was phenomenal with my foot massage! Definitely recommend this place!! read more

Overall Victorian Day Spa is a solid spa in the Park Road neighborhood. I went in today for a bikini wax and overall had a good experience. The overall decor is adorable and very clean!The waxing was quick with minimal pain and only cost $29, which is far cheaper than other spas in the area. My only complaint is that there seems to be a lack of staff working there. I had a 5 pm appointment and was not taken in until 5:10 pm, which wasn't a big deal to me at the time but I noticed that the same employee had just finished doing someone's nails and when I left she quickly grabbed the next client. It seemed as if she was the only one doing everything, which is a bit much. read more

I had a great experience here! I got a mini pedicure which was very relaxing. I didn't feel rushed even though it said it would be a 30 minute service, they said I should stay so my toes could dry and ended up being there almost an hour. They had a wonderful color selection as well. I would return if I were back in West Hartford in the future! read more

i disagree. The couples massage was amazing and it was a surprise. My concern is that i waited 15min before it started after my scheduled appointment. Would I go back yes. I enjoyed it. Just please stick to the schedule. I understand if your running late but not 15min read more
