I booked a 60 minute Swedish massage at Banyan Tree very last minute on a weeknight and they kindly took me at 8:30, right before closing. They did not make me feel rushed at all. The place is very clean and comfortable, the staff is kind and attentive. When you get there they give you a warm eucalyptus scented towel to wipe off your hands, offer you a tea and the restroom, and then lead you to your room. The massage therapist was thorough and professional. At the end, they gave me a firm head massage that felt amazing - I just recommend bringing a comb if you need to be somewhere afterwards! I noticed on my way home that the back soreness I had coming in was gone. Your price is discounted if you pay cash! Thank you Banyan Tree! read more

We enjoyed our first 2 visits to Banyan Tree Thai Spa, which makes our 2/19 visit even more disappointing. Fifteen minutes into our 90-minute couples deep tissue massage, I saw my husband's therapist, Lydia, typing on a lit smartphone while leaning over him. When she realized I saw her, she hid the phone under the sheets. There is no version of this that is acceptable. Texting during a paid massage is blatant misconduct. It didn't stop there. My husband repeatedly asked her to focus on his neck and shoulders and avoid his feet. His requests were ignored. The technique was lazy and mechanical - repetitive forearm circling with little to no pressure, despite requesting deep tissue. He left feeling like he didn't receive a massage at all. When we raised the issue, the owner acknowledged the behavior was "unacceptable" yet offered only a 25% discount - as if actively texting during a massage, ignoring repeated client requests, and delivering a substandard service were minor inconveniences. This wasn't just a bad massage. It was a complete lack of professionalism and accountability. We will not be returning. read more

Grace and Jamie are magicians. Actually, better than that, they are really dang good practitioners! I did the signature combination massage which put together traditional Thai techniques with deep tissue work. It was amazing! I did 90 minutes and it was worth every penny. But the way, save a little money and pay cash. My neck and shoulder that brought me in are feeling so much better! My lower back that's always angry has calmed down too. The combo of stretching and massage is perfection. I'd like to try a traditional Thai massage next time, but this was a great entry point. I kind of never want to have a different style massage ever again. Using your body weight and elbows/knees/feet instead of just hands is genius. The place is a tiny bit hard to find, so look for the big American flag and go in the door under it. It's an upscale building and spa. They don't have the spa amenities you might think of when I say upscale, but they are so good at what they do they don't need frills. Trust me, they will take care of you! read more

Incredible 90 minute massage with Namn I had read up on the reviews before I visited and was happy that the reviews were spot on. The staff is very welcoming. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the service was very thorough and tailored to my request. Also, the price is not outrageous like I feel I encounter so often in the city. I'll be back! read more

Pros: relaxing environment, slippers upon entry, strong and precise massage (Swedish). Cons: I understand that payment and tipping is important to businesses, but some kind of etiquette needs to be applied. I was asked to pay before my service and their tipping suggestions feel presumptuous. I think allowing a customer to enjoy their reason for being there takes precedence over being focused on payment for a service--it doesn't fit with the vibe or purpose of the visit. the floor that they are on smelled a bit fishy or like garbage once off the elevator; probably not their issue but something that should be looked into. Other than that I would consider visiting again. read more

The therapist did a great job working on my back, and I felt relief afterward. The room was slightly cold, which affected comfort a bit.

A massage so good that I'm writing this seven months later. It's a bit far from where I live is the only drawback. Enjoy it New Yorkers read more

Really amazing :) Dina addressed every muscle and focused well where I asked her to. Reception was very inviting & accommodating even when I misscheduled the appointment. Would definitely go again and recommending to friends read more

Truly transformative experience. The space is calm and thoughtfully run. I originally booked a Swedish massage, but once my therapist began, she suggested deep tissue work based on what my body needed -- and she was right. It made all the difference. The team is intuitive and skilled, and I appreciated how attuned they were throughout. Already looking forward to returning next month. read more

Jamie did a wonderful job and I will be back. I had a Thai/deep Massage and was happy because she didn't miss a spot. Thanks!

This was such a lovely and professional experience from booking until departure! I booked a four hands massage to start off my 50th birthday celebration and it did not disappoint. The welcome included hot tea, warm towel, QR to register, a birthday card, split bottle of champagne (it's champagne drinking time somewhere) and Ferrero Rocher Chocolates! They provide me slippers from a clothe bag and after a short period of adjustment I was taken to my room. It was perfect. The massage provided by Pookky and Jenny was PERFECT! It was just the right amount of pressure and stretching - one of the best I've had. After the 9" min massage I was given sufficient time to get dressed and drink my champagne. After I was greated with tea! I even appreciate the grace given to me when I was delayed by a stalled train. I will certainly return! read more

Best massage I've ever had. 90 min Swedish was so good I almost went back the very next day. My wife said it was the best massage she has ever had as well (deep tissue). Thanks Banyan Tree!!! read more

I was looking for a last minute massage to end a very stressful work week and stumbled upon this location. So lucky I did! It is very conceniently located near multiple train locations and my work place! Upon entering I was immediately greeted by a friendly receptionist, hot tea, & slippers (how fancy!) The spa itself is very clean, professional and warm. My massage therapist Bill expertly located and worked on all of my trouble spots/knots. I am so excited to have found my new spa! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a little oasis. read more

My masseuse used perfect pressure, but i was a little underwhelmed with the stretching, maybe would have got more with the 90minute session but the 60min was good! I was kind of rushed out, i guess i took too long getting dressed (had a lot if jewelry to get back on) as she had to knock and come in to get the room ready for next session but she was apologetic. May repeat for a 90min to compare, or stick with 'thai massage by fern'. read more

Great massage. Best I have had in NYC. Deep and therapeutic and reasonably priced for NYC

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a traditional Thai massage with Nicki, and it was truly exceptional. Nicki's skillful techniques worked wonders in relieving tension and promoting relaxation throughout my entire body, particularly in my legs. Her expertise and attentiveness made the experience incredibly enjoyable and left me feeling rejuvenated. I highly recommend Nicki for anyone seeking a top-notch Thai massage with strong pressure and stretching experience. The environment is nice as well! read more

It's been almost two years since I felt safe again to get a full body massage, and I'm so glad I came back to Banyan Tree yesterday. Tanya moved the spa to a new location and it's bigger and quite gorgeous. I'm so proud that she manages to keep the business going because let's be honest, it's been a tough 18 months for everyone. Back to the massage. The sheets, the room and the spa all feel super clean, I had the best 1.5 hours combo massage I desperately needed. I weight lift and do yoga so I was able to breathe through some pretty skilful and advanced manipulations that made me feel new again. Is it painful, oh yeah baby. Is it necessary - the only time I wish I was mega rich was this - if I could, I'd love to have the same massage daily. If you are super cautious with COVID protocols, this is a place where you may find more solace in. I am and I felt safe and relaxed. read more

Banyan Tree Thai Spa - Gorgeous urban spa - Massage Near Me - New York, New York

This little 3 rooms SPA is located in the jungle of merchants in the busy ktown. It's located on the 3rd floor with no big visible sign so you might miss it when you walk by. This place is small but very authentic Thai massage, at least they all speak Thai. I've been to Thailand many times, and really enjoy their traditional thai massage which is more to stretch than massage, will make you feel so relaxed. But I decided to try their massage to ease my pain on my upper back and shoulder. They started with light stretch then use knees and elbows for deep tissue to target the pressure points. Also I think they use some sort of herbal oil smell very minty to help massage to increase the blood circulation. I feels very released after the massage. The place is very small only 3 rooms; one big room can accommodate two beds for couple massage, one room doesn't have a bed is for thai massage that's usually performed on the floor level, the other just regular room with single bed. Definitely need reservation since they have limited rooms. Take advantage of the package if you like them tho, you get some discount read more

We got the most fantastic time. Massage at Banyan tree. The office was in a beautiful building downtown, and they had such nice decor and it was very quiet and peaceful there. We met the owner Tanya and she was very gracious. We had 90 minutes of very deep tissue time massage and the expertise and skill set from masseuse was amazing. What a great day, we can't wait to come back again.!! read more

I went yesterday for a one hour massage, I called to check if they had any openings and they did which worked out nicely. This time I picked a Swedish massage and chose they focus on my head / neck / shoulders and feet. As always it was super relaxing, i'm pretty sure anytime i'm in the city i'll be making time to stop in for a massage. read more

Absolutely wonderful! I had Rosy for a 60 minute flow oil massage. She was excellent. I appreciate that she checked in with me on the pressure and the blend of oil and Thai massage. I feel fantastic. Will definitely come back. read more

Great Swedish Massage for one hour. It was a birthday gift. My masseuse was fantastic. One star off for not asking client what are sensitive areas before starting and the front desk receptionist who was a little pushy when asking for the tip. I like to believe that we all know tip isn't mandatory it's gratuity for service. Over all very worth it. My body felt loose and relaxed afterwards. read more

My first time at Banyan, I received the combo Thai Massage. My masseuse, Grace is very friendly and intuitive. I had the best and much needed experience. I definitely look forward to coming back. My only regret is that I didn't book for a longer session! read more

The BEST massage ever. I had the combo massage with Freya and she was amazing! Thank you!

Almost from the moment Jamie started my massage, I could tell it was going to be one of the best ones I have received. It's amazing what happens when the masseuse actually listens to what you want. I got the combined massage but asked them to not stretch. What do you know.. there was no stretching. The location is very unassuming. It's on the 2nd floor of a big NYC building behind one door. This isn't a Burke Williams setup, but what they do well is the actual massage service. Thank you Jamie and thank you Banyan Tree Thai Spa. read more

One of the top 5 massages of my life! Seriously worth it, the women that worked with my friend and I really know how pressure works- responsive to a request for extra work on my neck, can't wait to go back!! Lydia and Rosy were absolutely masters of their craft. Please go see them and feel better!! read more

Wow! Came in with a considerable amount of back pain and needed help. The deep tissue Thai massage was exactly what I needed. Everyone was incredibly friendly and very professional. The location was great and everything was clean, well-appointed and very cute. The staff seemed to enjoy working there and took great pride in their jobs. I can't wait to visit again. read more

Very relaxing spa. I had a 90-minute Swedish massage with Grace who was excellent. I'll definitely be back!
