I wanted to like this place and I did really love the woman who did my nails but there are quite a…read morefew caveats.... First of all, there is only one nail technician working here at a time, from what I can tell. When I called to make the appointment it was clear that there was only one person working on a Saturday, but maybe there's more during the week. Also, the nail area is very small and has a doorway that opens to the hotel lobby which means there are people walking back-and-forth and, when you were sitting at the nail table, your back is to those people, which is a bit disconcerting. The pedicure chairs were seats high up with sinks below, but no massage etc so, personally, that's not my preference anyhow. I have to say that I bought a certificate on Gilt, for a gel manicure. I would figure that that certificate would cover the cost of the manicure and that I would have to pay tax and the fee to soak off my gel manicure that was already on. Guess what? Soak off is $15 !!! That is insanely expensive for soak off in NYC but I guess since this place considers itself a premium salon that must be what is the going rate at more upscale joints. What I didn't understand was the 26 additional dollars the front desk charged. I paid my tip in cash, and tax shouldn't have been more than a few dollars so I'm still puzzling over the amount. Why didn't I deal it when I was there? Because I was running out the door, late, because the manicure took 90 minutes (with soak off) which made me a bit late for my next errand. They have an attractive enough facility, and two areas for pedicures and so I am sure they can accommodate more guests if they had more technicians. The bathroom was attractive and clean. There was not a very broad choice of gel polish colors, probably about 30 to 35 were offered. I did not see any options for any designs or special technique. The actual quality of the manicure is 5 stars - Kaoru was so very very good!! If the cost here was not so unbelievably high I would happily seek her out to have her as my regular manicurist. TL/dr: Fabulous manicurist but high cost & noisy foot traffic outside.

I bought a gilt voucher for a signature full spa pedicure. It's the most expensive pedicure they…read morehave costing $100 and supposedly 90 mins long. I paid 40% of the original cost for my voucher and even at that price i felt like it was a waste of money. I tend to not get pedicures anymore because i feel like they just soak, rub my feet, and polish. it always feels rushed to me. I thought spending a little more would mean i would get the expected buffing, massaging and extra attention to my cuticles. My experience at Elevatione spa fell very short of my expectations. I got to my appointment on time and was seen promptly. The pedicurist did not say much which i didn't mind. On to the actual process. Took my nail polish off, filed and did some cuticle stuff. The only difference between this and a $25 pedicure was the scrub on my leg and a foot mask which doesn't impress me at all. Unless the skin on your feet is buffed/ peeled away, the texture won't change. They was no buffing and not even a one minute foot massage. My service ended 20 mins early and was told she used a quick dry liquid so i didn't need to stay long to dry. It looked like they didn't have a drying fan. I still sat for a while cause i had time to kill but when i was finally ready to leave, i noticed the side of my big toe did not have and even application of the nail polish. When i asked for the nail tech, i was told she stepped out. At this point I was in a hurry, so i left. I had to wear sneakers to work later that day and ended up smudging my nail polish. Two weeks later, I'm already dealing with chipping which never happens. My pedicures last for at least a month/ till i take them off. I really would've considered coming here and paying the full $100 and getting my money's worth. But what i received i would pay $25.
