This is my go-to place for massage, acupuncture and cupping. They are so good. I'm delighted with their nail art as well. I got a summer nail art and I love it. Very subtle and classic. Highly recommended. read more

Blue Danube Spa - Summer nails - Massage Near Me - Palo Alto, California

Decided to try Blue Danube for a massage this morning and it exceeded my expectations. I've had massages at several luxury hotels and have paid triple the amount for massages that haven't been nearly as good. The location is very convenient-- lots of parking nearby. They also have great availability for last minute appointments unlike some other spas in the area. Stacy did such a wonderful job. I got an hour long Swedish massage, and the pressure was perfect the entire time. I've told technicians I like medium-hard pressure before only to have light pressure the whole time. She was very firm and thorough and got out all of the tension I've been carrying in my neck and back area. The hot stones were a nice touch. The only thing I could see improvement on is maybe a longer hand and foot massage, so I'll mention that next time. But honestly the focus on my back was much needed for this time. I'm really happy to have found this spa nearby and can't wait to come back. read more

The best deep tissue massage I've had in a long time! Staff was friendly, professional, and communicative. The space was calm and clean. Heated massage table felt lovely. I'll definitely be back! read more

Wow! This was my first time, and oh my god, I'll be back for sure. Blue Danube was super clean, staff were happy and friendly, and Summer was incredible. She found knots, was firm but perfect pressure, and I am feeling like I can take on the world now. I want to come back tomorrow it was so nice! The price was super reasonable and I'm glad I booked 90 minutes. I can't wait to come back, and I'll book my next appointment after I finish this review. Okay....time to book... read more

I recommend blue Danube highly. I frequent this spa and the massages are consistently done well. The place is clean and everyone is really professional. It's on Cal Avenue so the location is conveniently near mollie stones and restaurants, in case you wanted to couple your visit with a meal or errand. The only down side is that the hourly rate is relatively expensive but there is a discounted rate as well. All in all, a reliable spot and they are branching out with new services like nails and lashes. Trust me, without naming names, there are definitely shadier places even in Palo Alto. I would not hesitate to send others here. read more

Had an incredible massage the other day from Linda! She is truly the best masseuse I've ever seen! I was having lower back issues and she checked in with me and released all of my knots. Definitely check this place out if you're in the area and need a massage make sure to ask for Linda. read more

Had an excellent massage experience here. The therapist was professional, attentive, and really focused on my problem areas. The environment was clean, calm, and relaxing from start to finish. I left feeling refreshed, relieved, and much less tense. Definitely worth coming back again. read more

I have been getting my weekend massages here for about the last two years. I am in awe of how excellent each of the staff massage therapists are with soft touch therapy, hard knot hand work, and gentle yet firm back and leg massage. The owner is Chelsea and the attention to detail with the beautiful aesthetics in each room along with the lobby are a testament to her passion for excellence. The clients fascinate me! PhD students coming in the late afternoon to "chill out", recently a mother and daughter in a couples room enjoying Mother's Day together, I've seen this tall professional athlete three times that comes in for 90 minute sports massage, and twice I have seen groups of four both times getting massages before they walk down California to have a group dinner! It is next to the Mollie Stone's which is my occasional goto store. I am thrilled that I discovered Blue Danube since I enjoy spending weekends near California Ave. read more

Super happy to find a local spa that provides great Eyebrow Microblading service. Eva is very experienced and professional. I was so impressed with her skills and very satisfied with my new eyebrows and decided to get my eyeliner done on the same day. Highly recommended Eva! 三年多前在台灣做的繡眉，都快掉光了，又沒機會回台灣，終於在Palo Alto找到專業繡眉師Eva， 做了"霧眉", 還有"美睫眼線"，超滿意的，我覺得比我在台灣做的還讚！大推！ read more

I highly recommend this spa. It's clean professional and attentive. My massage therapist Summer was extraordinary. She kept checking on me if I was comfortable with her pressure and which areas i want her to address. She had a nice flow and worked on loosening my knots on my lower back and my legs. I can't wait to go back for my next visit. read more

Everyone was really friendly and made sure I was comfortably settled in, even though I got there a bit early. Told them that my back and necessary was tight and the massuese teally helped loosen up those muscles. I felt great at the end of the session. Will definitely be going back again. read more

They've started tagging on a 3% credit card processing fee on their massage now. This comes as a surprise because there's no disclosure before the massage about this fee. Not on the price list at the front desk, or anywhere else. It's a fee of less than three bucks, so the amount is tiny, however, it's the fact that it isn't disclosed before the fact that's concerning. I'm not a fan of surprises when it comes to money, unless it's a good surprise. The massage is good at a very competitive price for Palo Alto. There's nowhere else quite as affordable around here. Not even Massage Envy. read more

This place is a gem. First, location is very convenient. There's plenty of street parking around and is good when you have errands to run on California street. It's a new place that recently opened so the facilities are brand new inside. I called the store and easily got a same day appointment for 1 hour massage. The owner is very kind and gave me an amazing massage.. best I've had in a while. I was having neck and shoulder problems and regularly go to Massage Envy which has recently had masseuse changes that don't apply enough pressure for my needs. The owner kneaded by neck and shoulder and back very thoroughly and also had great expertise on applying pressure in the right spots and angles. She was very attentive even when I asked for a facial massage instead of lower back which was a nice touch. Right now the grand opening pricing is a also great value. read more

Super convenient location and friendly skillful staff. I walked pass by this place so many times since it's right on Cal Ave, and I finally decided to give it a try. Went in for a deep tissue massage. I called for an appointment 1 hour early on a Sat night, and I'm so glad they can take me in. I felt super relaxed and recharged after the 1 hour session. This is a hidden gem. Will come back for sure! read more

I called on Saturday to make a last minute appointment for a Swedish massage. I was greeted by a very friendly lady at the reception desk (owner maybe?). My masseuse was very professional and thoughtful with her questions about areas I wanted her to focus on. For the first 15mns, she kept asking how much pressure I liked. I said I didn't like a deep tissue massage so she was very careful to check with me quite often and explained how much she should press to release the tight muscles. I felt quite comfortable during the massage and walked out feeling so relaxed. I highly recommend this place, clean with friendly staff. Plenty of parking. I will have to carry more cash to tip generously next time. read more

I visited this spa for a massage recently. Excellent service and very clean environment. The staff is very professional and friendly.

Had a couple massage, he received deep tissue, i had a Swedish massage. The massage wasn't anything extraordinary. At the end when my date paid for the massage; i offered to pay for the tip. $10 for each masseuse. It was concerning to me that the owner of the spa demanded a specific tip amount $20 each. Told me to keep my $10.00. I believe tipping is an important way to show your appreciation for good service, it should never be mandatory or demanded. This kind of behavior can make customers feel uncomfortable and ultimately damage the reputation of the spa. After, the demand of $20 each i refused to pay for the manner fact of; however, my date still tipped it wasn't $ 20 each though, $15 each. However, i will not return back to the Blue Danube Spa after that experience. Its important for businesses to prioritize customer satisfaction and make sure that every guest feels valued and respected. read more

I saw it opened before last day, so I walked in today. The environment is really good. They have a GRAND OPENING recently, each service spend only 79$. I will come again. read more

Had the best massage of my life. A great EXPERIENCE. Very clean and very nice people. I'll definitely be coming back.

The owner is very welcoming and friendly, but I went in for an hour deep tissue massage. It was not good at all, the masseuse rubbed at my bones.. at times it felt like she was just holding me (like my feet). I even told her at one point that the way she was rubbing my bones with her elbows really hurt and asked for more pressure at certain points, but she just seemed over it and clearly seemed tired.. I really wanted it to end for most of the massage. As I walked out, the owner checked in with me and explained that she was a new hire. It's understandable, but it wasn't a cheap massage and while it annoyed me, it also just made me wonder what the masseuse is going through, I don't know. I just left not feeling good at all and slightly feeling worse (ha). I'd maybe try again but I'd ask for an experienced masseuse for a good, deep massage.. read more

Really enjoyed my massage here. The spa is clean and good hygiene levels. The masseuse was really nice and knew what she was doing. Highly recommend the place for a massage. read more

great massage:-) feel so comfortable afterward. The environment is clean cozy and highend. I will definitely come back again and again.

Had a great time at this spa--exactly what I needed. Got well relaxed and pain-relieved at back, shoulder and neck. Nice relaxing music and free hot stone with mask during the promotion time. Would come back and recommend! read more

I received a one hour massage from Lucy today. The massage was soothing and she spent just the right amount of time and pressure on my sensitive neck muscles. Thank you so much. read more

Awkward. I had a gift card from Mother's Day that I was excited to use. The girl was nice enough but the massage was not one I have experienced before during a basic Swedish massage. Let's just say I wouldn't have approved my husband receiving this massage. Anyway, I'm out ready to pay and the girl follows me out and stands there waiting for her tip. Ok cool... I'm workin on it. So I give her what I think is fair. Especially considering this awkward situation. I gave her the envelope and she speaks another language to the front desk. They refer me to a sign that tells me how much to tip. It was awkward as hell. I gave her another $10 making it the high end of a tip for that range and walked out. So weird. So awkward. Not very professional from start to finish. Avoiding them and their awkwardness. read more

I have gone here twice. The first time, I scheduled via their website for the 730PM slot but when I arrived at 7PM apparently my slot was not showing up in their system even though I got a confirmation email (which I showed them). I had to wait for an hour and a half because there were only 2 masseuses available to handle all the customers. The bathrobe in the room was also already used and was not replaced, so I had nothing to use. The redeeming factor was Lynn is very, very good, probably the best masseuse I've ever had. She knows exactly how to find and relax ALL the knots. She is also very kind and compassionate. For my second visit, which I booked solely for Lynn's expertise, again there was a lack of proper management of the schedule. When I was already on the way, they called me asking if I can go at a later time because they were very busy. I told them I was already near and cannot turn around. When I arrived, I waited for 45 minutes past my scheduled time and the spa was nearly closing. Thankfully, it was another amazing and relaxing massage by Lynn. Just want to emphasize that Lynn is topnotch but the scheduling aspect is disorganized and all over the place. Hopefully this can be fixed so that it will be an overall good experience for your customers. read more

I've been to several "luxury" spa's but no massage has felt quite as good as the one I got here - the massage therapist so clearly a practiced hand, she made all the knots that my back has held for months and months completely disappear! Highly highly recommend, incredibly good for this price point - the location is also super convenient, clean, and soothing read more

We made an appointment and drove from San Jose to this place. When we arrived we were told that there is a 40 min delay and we have to wait now. Absolutely horrible and unacceptable. They just don't care. read more

My fiancé and I went for a couples massage and it was fantastic. They just opened in the palo alto area so we decided to check it out. They did not disappoint. They apply the right amount of pressure and know how to the sore spots which feels rejuvenating afterwards! Will definitely come back again! Thank you Chelsea and Alice for a great massage today. Please support them as Blue Danube is a new business, has great service and is worth every penny!! read more

This massage place is wonderful! I had a better massage here than other places which were much more expensive. I got a Swedish/deep tissue massage, and my masseuse did a great job working on tight muscles I didn't even know I had. It's also very easy to book appointments on their website, and the business is very clean and welcoming. read more
