Great experience! I'd highly recommend booking with Pretty. She is very professional and gave a truly effective therapeutic massage.
One of the best top notch spas. Excellent service, very elegant and secluded space. Perfect for rewinding and relaxing.
The only 5* thing about the W. It’s important to note the hotel no longer runs it, which suggests why it’s now much better. I had a 90 minute performance massage and a 60 minute facial - both performed by Vi. I honestly haven’t had a massage that good in a very very long time. My partner had a Royal Hammam and couldn’t say a bad word about it. Despite the disastrous 3 weeks spent at W Hotel, I could return purely for a treatment and Sauna / Steam. Attention to detail is second to none. Thanks to the Team for taking some care and spoiling us.
Zacharia,JJ,Chef Karim,Rachel,Purna,Chalith and Itto The best customer service I've ever had in my life since I've started travelling. Best hotel,
Highly over priced and under valued!! The place lacks atmosphere common to any other decent spa. Very lacking for a 5 star rated hotel.
