Was disappointed with my experience here. The studio is located in a nice part of Munich, well…read moreappointed, but very small. My main complaint was the ambient noise, which I describe in detail below. I've had some experience with authentic Thai massage and felt that the massage I had was authentic and very good, not great. I had to briefly stop my masseuse when she was flexing my (post-surgical) knee in a way that was painful. I knew in advance that there would be significant stretching involved, and while I absolute despise completing written questionnaires and liability releases before a massage, a brief "Any injuries or limitations?" is always appreciated -- did not happen here. I paid an additional fee for a "foot massage" and there was little to none of this included in my service. There was an extremely brief (less than 60 seconds) foot soak in sudsy water with rose petals, after which my feet were dried and I was led to a dual occupancy room and instructed to put on a pair of (enormous, like size 50) pants that resembled hospital scrubs. A small changing area, basket and hangers were supplied. Another man was receiving a massage in the room, and although I'd consider them natural in this context, I didn't particularly care to listen to his grunting noises. Luckily his time was up shortly after my massage started, but the noises grew worse from there. Owing to the open ceilings, the sounds from the street came all the way back to my room (which was the farthest from the storefront). These included horns, sirens, and shouts (like really, really aggressive drunken shouts). There were also sounds from what sounded like possibly a restaurant or maybe a family's home -- there were several loud noises from a young child, and what sounded like a cart or mop bucket. Worst, I could hear the staff speaking intermittently throughout my massage, including negotiating with current and potential customers at the front. Lots of discussions about how tight some other dude's muscles were, haggling over prices, encouragement to buy more expensive services, exhortations to return, chats in Thai among the staff... and so on. As I paid, I kindly mentioned to the hostess that I had noticed quite a bit of noise and that I recognized that most of it was not the establishment's fault. She smiled and said she knew, and others had mentioned it, and that it was not their fault. Hmm. In summary: massage 4 stars, environment 2 stars. The ambiance here was anything but relaxing. Although my muscles felt somewhat better when I left, my mind was never able to get away from the outside world -- perhaps the thing I appreciate most about a good massage. My suggestion to the management: close the ceilings to the massage rooms and invest in sound-dampening items like curtains or acoustic foam.

Best massage I've ever had. I travel all over the world for work and frequently get massages to…read morehelp relieve pain that comes along with it. I randomly found this place on google after I was turned away by a couple other places that were closer to where I was staying because they were full. I decided to head over to Sumitra because after i was told they had some availability in about an hour. The place was very clean and the was greeted by the owner with a delicious tea. I decided to get a 90 minute Thai massage. During the massage she took her time and really payed attention to my troubled areas. I can tell that even though it was later in the day, she wasn't going to give me half the effort to get me out the door. I wish I was in Munich more because I'd be a regular here for sure. Highly recommended this place.
