A little bit of South Beach in Downtown Manhattan!By SpaGuy | October 22, 2011
This is one of my favorite spas! The setting is warm and inviting and the water noise from the waterfall is soothing and makes you feel as if you're in a tropical setting.....the massage therapists are awesome and both times I have been there I have been impressed.
In addition, there is a small place which can be accessed from inside the spa where you can grab something healthy to eat. That's if you can break away from the steam or heat room or the pools. I especially love the lounges where you can sit and relax after a treatment.

My Happy PlaceBy HeatherS | August 31, 2011
Every trip to the Great Jones Spa is worth it! The technicians are incredible, and the water lounge is a great place to read a magazine and just relax before or after a treatment. A must-visit for Manhattanites!

Roses624By RosetteR | June 28, 2011
I just went to this spa for the first time and loved it. I had the River Rock facial which was great. It was very relaxing and my skin felt great afterwards. The water room is also a really nice treat after your treatment. I'd definitely like to try some of their other services.

Expensive but still worth itBy JohnS | January 21, 2011
I've been going to Great Jones for some time as a treat for myself and my wife. Go early and enjoy the steamroom, whirlpool, cold bath, and sauna.
Bring a swimsuit since it is coed.
Large, clean and still fairly well kept (time ages everything). Lockers are fairly comfortable with robe and slippers.
The spa rooms are quiet and my massage was excellent. Plenty of water, snacks to bite on before or after your service.

Worst Spa Experience I Ever Had !!!!!!!!!!!!!By TerryS | July 4, 2010
This Spa totally misrepresents itself on the website. 1. Hot tub smaller & cooler than my bathtub. Water area had cracked plastic drinking glasses & lounge chairs had torn webs hanging down as well as old magazines thrown all over. 2. Massage waiting area was like sitting in a free clinic waiting room disrobed will people walked in & out of their office space constantly. 3. The massage was worse than being in a butcher shop as your arms & legs were placed & thrown down like dead slabs of meat. 4. Finally you get to change & shower in a facility that made your high school gym locker room look luxurious. 5. Upon leaving & handing in my gift certificate I was told that I needed to pay 70 cents more because the taxes went up. I was truly embarrassed because the person who was with me had given me the gift... so it actually cost her double for this disgusting place. Had to give it 1one star because the computer would not accept a minus rating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Relaxing Water HeavenBy lauren.k.alfonso | May 17, 2010
This spa was faboulous! Very clean, beautiful modern decor and updates set within old NY building architecture. We booked the VIP room which had a private steam room and jetted tub; well worth the hour rental. The Couples hot stone massage was in the room first then had one hour of privacy. Incredibly relaxing expericence. Staff was prompt, and professional. I would get the hot stone massage again. A wonderful experience.

Tried for Deal Days and I loved it!By Neil K | March 15, 2010
I had the Mani/Pedi for Deal Days and it was one of the best I have had. The water lounge was so relaxing! I also tried the juice bar. The produce was so fresh (which is a tough find in NYC). It took 2 pears and 1.5 apples to make my apple/pear juice, delicious!
-I only wish they offered a a mini massage and facial for Deal Days.

relaxing sunday morningBy lanem | February 25, 2010
This multi-floor spa needs a bit of a renovation. The water lounge on the bottom floor is nice, but small. And it gets crazy busy quickly. The locker room is a bit run down. There are only three small shower stalls.
I got a message treatment. It was competent, but nothing special.
Smoothies in the cafe are tasty.

Still Great!By RosalieN | January 16, 2010
2cnd time at this lovely New York Spa. Had a Mani/Pedi and Deep cleansing facial. Nail services were typical, nothing crazy. Products for nails were divine, no chemicals! that makes it worth it. Facial was best I ever had. Very nice and savvy Holly took care of all the facial needs you could ask for. Also a nice surprise was the neck and shoulder massage and hand treatment. My skin has never looked so clear and bright. Seriously. Was a bit crowded today at the relaxation water area but still managed to get in some quiet time. Overall worth every penny

Great space, can be very busyBy SabrinaW | January 8, 2010
I have been to this place twice so far. Both times were enjoyable, but I far preferred the first experience I had because on the return visit there was apparently a bridal party present for a spa day and it was louder and more busy than I'd like when I'm trying to relax and forget the stresses of living in a big city. I will still go back for a third visit given that the staff were well-trained and the actual physical space is attractive and spacious, but I'll probably call ahead to make sure there isn't a large group spa-day taking place, just to be safe!

My sanctuaryBy AliceL | June 26, 2009
I've been going to Great Jones Spa at least once a month for the last two years. I was hooked from the first visit.
The space is incredible. The entrance to the building is modest and unassuming, so I was really impressed to walk into an oasis in the middle of Noho.
Another really great thing is that they are open pretty late into the evening... perfect for people like me who work late hours.
I also appreciate the friendly atmosphere. It is not overly new-age-y, nor is it elitist. There is the occasional bachelorette party that can make the dressing room seem a bit like a sorority house, but more often than not, the other clients are very courteous to each other and the staff.
Although I book regularly with my favorite therapist, I have had massages from 3 or 4 other therapists and they have all been great. And the spa pedicure is very reasonable and a great pick-me-up.
The water lounge that's included with most services is a great perk. I've been other places where I've gotten far less for much more. And, I love that it's not one of those places where you feel pressured to tip every time someone hands you a towel. It's the right balance of service and self-service.
Overall, I think this spa is an amazing value and I consider it my sanctuary.

worst wax EVER!By kait | June 10, 2008
Went here for a bikini wax, it was the worst experience I have ever had AND it was wayyyy over priced!!! $95 to walk out of there with so much wax still left on my thighs that I couldn't even walk home, she missed a bunch of spots and I'm all bruised up down there(which has never happened before and I get waxes all the time). Absolutely terrible, don't waste your money on a wax there... I know I won't make the mistake again.

Strong TherapistsBy Happycustomer | December 3, 2007
My husband and I have gone to Great Jones for massages several times now. What has amazed us is that each time we go - although we have had different therapists - all of them have been terrific. We have heard that the head person there really does a great job of hiring and I guess that must be the reason. We are picky about our massages and it is unheard of for one of us not to be disappointed. The treatments are on the expensive side but because they have that huge sauna, soaking pools and great therapists it is clearly worth it.

Great oasis in New York CityBy CarolD | July 29, 2007
I went to this spa today..I was very surprised. It was bigger inside then I thought it would be....from the outside you would never know..The amenities were wonderful. Nice robes ,towels and slippers, then even had disposable bathing suits. Hairdryers, makeup mirror and even Bare Essential make up to try...The steam room was hugh and clean, the whirlpool tubs were clean and the waterfalls and sunny atrium to sit and relax was very soothing.The cold plunge pool was not working at the time but it didn't matter....I had a massage and it was wonderful..I would definitely visit this spa again.It was a great experience.. It really was a little Oasis in New york city....

Declining in quality since it opened - Too popularBy nycgirl | May 29, 2007
I live near this spa and when it first opened, wow! a gorgeous day spa that actually has a hot/cold plunge pool, waterfall, colortherapy steam room, and sauna! with 5x more real estate than the horrible Bliss(whose "steam room" is actually the shower--eck). Zen like and calming, I was wowed and became a regular guest in this little secret gem of a place.
But now, since it's gotten so popular in the past year, i find that:
---facilties harder to clean with the increase in guests.
I went last week for a massage and the hot tub/pool had white, clammy flakes of RESIDUE floating all around. this did not deter many of the guests from jumping in.
--lounge area is too noisy to relax.
again the pool/tub is situated a few feet from the lounge area and the acoustics in this place are horrible. many girls love to jabber on and on while in the tub and the echos that ensue are just jarring. You cannot control the noise or even run away unless you head to the steam room. you are encouraged to lounge and read magazines in this zen-like decor of a spa but the noise is nothing but yak, yak, yak. I've been here time and time again only to encounter major chatter and noise from the huge surge in guests. Before, you could avoid this by going during the weekday in the AM, but now it's just busy with in-and-out guests all times of day. It's unavoidable.
I wish there was a sign posted that read "pls be quiet" which was not necessary at the opening, but now it is a must!
Since i can't relax at this space, i am now turning to smaller spas with steam rooms. Massage quality is same as any other good spa - good and excellent depending on the technician. But to spend $130 to use the "calming facilities" which are only stress-inducing, i have to sadly turn away. Because of the noise and disgust at the pool, i cancelled my next 2 appointments at the spa.

My favorite place in NYBy SpaJunkie | November 15, 2006
As a frequent spa -goer, I would have to say this is my favorite place in the city. I love the dramatic interiors, huge steam and sauna rooms, cascading waterfalls. Most days spas in this city are the size of a postage stamp and almost none have the extra amenities so usully I feel ripped off . This place is spacious and I love sitting by the waterfall and just lounging. The bodywork has been very consistent and I think the therapists here are definately above average in this city. Great space for large events or bridal showers!
