Lotus Spa Reviews

Surprised by all the bad reviews. I had an amazing massage here this week. 60 minute massage and they took my request to focus on back and shoulders. The masseuse was really putting his back into it when I requested deep tissue. Appreciate that there were separate rooms with doors. Sometimes at budget friendly places, you are only separated by a curtain. The staff may have to pop out quickly to answer the door or a call, but that’s fairly normal in my opinion. It’s also normal for me to pay for massage upfront and tip after — even at luxury spas! So not bothered by that at all. Great massage at excellent price and kind service.

The first thing that was weird was they had me pay in advance. I get a lot of massages and usually pay after. And the massage itself was terrible. Terrible, terrible massage from a female "masseuse." Rubbing haphazardly here and there without sustaining anything long enough to have any impact. My "foot massage" was mostly her rubbing the front of my legs. She just didn't seem to have a clue what she was doing. And then they followed me outside asking about a tip. What a joke. I would avoid.

I do massage once a week. However, I really had a bad experience there and I changed to 30 minutes session instead of one hour since I feel they are not skilled. I changed it from the beginning 5 minutes. Unbelievable thing is they charged full price at the end. No privacy as well, they didn’t knock the door and just came in when you were changing clothes. I really didn’t want to write bad reviews unless they really pissed me off. They really don’t deserve the full price if they didn’t do the full service.

If you’re looking for a decent hour long, full body massage in midtown for less than $100 this is a great spot. I can only speak on the couples room as I’ve gone twice now with two different friends and it’s a cute room. My first massage they did flip us over, my second they didn’t and I wish they had. Don’t expect bells and whistles - where else in midtown can you get a 60min full body for $50??! The owner is a nice lady, never any problems with the other staff members. Yes you’ll hear noise (the door bell, phone calls, their conversations). If you want high end, pay for it! This ain’t that, but for what it is, it’s great.

First I wash charged 5 dollars cash. After she viewed my Groupon. With no explanation. Second she asked me what type of massage I wanted I said Swedish. It definitely felt like I was getting a deep tissue massage instead. Her massage wasn’t horrible but I’ve had better it’s almost as if she wanted time to go faster so left the room a few times to grab items and kept staying on some spots longer. I also kept hearing a man in the next room moaning. She cover my entire head with a towel and said it’s so that oil doesn’t get on my hair. That was a first. Then after the service right as I was exiting she asked if I wasn’t gonna tip. That was the cherry on top for me 🫠🙃
