visited this spa, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Everything about this place exceeded my expectations. The staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive, making me feel comfortable right away. The cleanliness of the entire facility was impeccable, which added to the overall sense of relaxation. The massage was nothing short of amazing—perfect pressure, soothing atmosphere, and pure relaxation. After the massage, I spent time in the beautifully designed lounge, which was not only aesthetically pleasing but also incredibly peaceful—a perfect space to unwind. The pool facilities were also excellent, well-maintained, and a great addition to the overall experience. Every detail, from the ambiance to the service, made this visit truly special. I would highly recommend this spa to anyone looking for a top-tier relaxation experience.
I had an amazing experience here with my girls. Service was amazing. They were very attentive. We all had massages and it was so good. The little snacks were good as well. It was like a step into tranquility. The atmosphere inside the spa was just so different. Id like to add the spa was so clean, spacious and felt so calm.
I absolutely love this spa ✨ You will truly be impressed by the quality of service, the massage was excellent along with the pool & sauna area! I highly recommend this beautiful spa in the downtown area. Thank you to the management and staff for making me feel welcome. I can’t wait for my next visit.
Exceptional Birthday Experience! I celebrated my special day at the spa and left feeling utterly relaxed and rejuvenated. The couples deep tissue massage was sublime - incredibly relaxing and relieving. The amenities, including pool and gym access, were a lovely bonus. What truly impressed me was the attention to detail: spotless facilities, tranquil atmosphere, and friendly staff. The luxurious change room, equipped with everything needed to refresh and revive, was the perfect finishing touch. I'm already planning my next visit! If you're seeking a serene escape, look no further. Definitely exceeded my expectations in every way. 5/5 stars! ❤️
Initial reception was smooth and easy. Dean did a great job introducing the space and getting oriented. Then it’s just a blur. The layout is bizarre, you’re constantly in and out of hallways. You have to cross the gym to get to the pool. There are some chairs and cabanas but they’re all taken. No organization whatsoever on this. The pool is separate from the “relaxation lounge” which was just a single room with a few chairs. Everybody comes out together and then is placed right beside each other. It’s awkward and the last persons mess was still there. The snacks were not great. Tiny bite of two small things. Nothing to do or enjoy in that room. There’s also no connection from the change room to the amenities. I asked for a loan bathing suit because I didn’t bring one. The health desk said sure and gave me a pair of Lulu shorts (with the price tag still on, had to cut it off myself. weird but ok. ) Got an amazing massage by Bo. Thorough and attentive, great experience. When I went to check out and pay they wanted to charge me full price for those shorts. I told the reception that the health centre staff didn’t mention anything about a charge. This is not cool. I’m not paying for something I didn’t even need. Dana saved the day, seemingly the only desk staff actually representing Shangri La properly. Overall - not world class , not enjoyable. Everything was disjointed and confusing. Was not relaxing at all. Felt tense and uncomfortable. I didn’t want to stay a second longer than I had to. Felt like it’s run by high schoolers. Compared to the other luxury spas in the city this one doesn’t even come close. Would not go back and do not recommend.
I have staycationed at the Shangri-La a couple of times now and been really happy. Tired of the Elmwood’s facilities and having already done the Park Hyatt earlier in the year, I opted to try something new. I wish I did not. TLDR: I was compensated 50% for the facial & the scalp massage ($35). I don’t see myself ever going back pregnant or otherwise. Massage: I noticed immediately that the foot scrub wasn’t booked but I did have to call Denise back to confirm my booking which she didn’t record from our first call. I figured something was lost in translation and likely my misunderstanding so although I mentioned it, I thought it was no big deal at first. I had a massage with Edna who was excellent. It was more a relaxation massage than therapeutic (spa standard). I usually go in weekly to a specialised maternal health center for prenatal massage (including low back) but it was super nice nonetheless. The scalp add on wasn’t anything more than you can do at home. Better to book a head spa appointment. The services are booked too closely together so you waddle to the relaxation lounge, get barely settled, then get called for your facial almost immediately. Next, you waddle to the facialist room that doesn’t have a bathroom in proximity, so you waddle back to the change room & waddle back. I did confirm that all the facial products would be pregnancy safe at least twice on the booking call. The facialist still had to check & did try to confirm with me if salicylic acid was ok. I honestly really don’t know… but said sure. Unfortunately, I suspect she was completely unaware that I was pregnant before the appointment. The facial was a series of unidentified products with some massage, cold compress and a mask. Nothing to write home about. Where today fell apart: The facial actually doesn’t work for heavily pregnant women and I wish I knew. At 38 weeks pregnant, lying on your back for an extended period (like an hour) isn’t recommended because the weight of your uterus can compress the inferior vena cava, a major blood vessel that returns blood to your heart. This can lead to dizziness, shortness of breath, low blood pressure, and reduced blood flow to the baby. I did mention that I generally need to be side lying but didn’t push it willing to give it a try. To accommodate, the bed was slightly inclined further and lowered but still on my back. Midway, I thought “why am I doing this? I feel squished” and asked to rotate through the rest where it felt applicable. Facility Notes: There is no where in the spa to lie down. It’s not really set up as a day spa. I feel it’s most ideal if you’re already at the hotel to grab a quick massage or service but there’s no cohesive experience here. To eat, there are no tables so you’re hunched over a coffee table eating a $60 (delicious) salad that you need to dress yourself. You can never move freely through the spa. There’s always someone trying to attend/walk with you except she’s very confusing. I think I asked three times how to fit the pool into the experience - can I go in these slippers and robe? Do I have to pay first and exit? etc. Lunch was the same confused back and forth. In the change room, I asked about lunch which isn’t posted anywhere. The order experience consists of unfamiliarity with the limited menu so she has to step away to confirm steak can be added to my salad and then 10 minutes later, has to come back again to confirm the doneness of my steak. Still trying to figure things out, I learn you can’t eat poolside and that’s no problem. I’m told lunch will take an hour so she suggests that I consider going to the pool to wait and be called back. I decline but ask if I can eat in the relaxation lounge. She says yes and escorts me from the women’s change room. Lunch actually takes 20 minutes and someone else comes to asks if I want to go back to the change room or waiting area again. So, back we go. I did want to use the pool but after lunch, I thought “better to just go home” and try the Elmwood prenatal package if they can take me soon enough.

I get a lot of massages and I tell everyone that time and time again the best is here. It’s amazing that you get to spend time at the pool and hot tub and saunas with your massage, make a relaxing day of it. You get some tea and snacks as well. Everything is beautiful! It’s 10/10 experience, especially the hot stone massage, I like the stones they use. Big fan
