Here, you have the whole facility to yourself for the entire time slot that you reserve, with the exception of the ladies who do your body scrub and massage (they are very discreet and respectful, and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable). The main spa package includes a jacuzzi, full body scrub, hair wash, and saunas for two hours. They have also added separate massage and facial services that you can add on, or book separately if you don't want to do the whole spa thing.

What an amazing experience!…read more I got a gift certificate for Christmas and I couldn't wait to book since I experience chronic pain in my back. Once I got there I was easily checked in and asked to fill the form of where I would like to focus on/avoid which I really appreciated. I highlighted my shoulders/traps area since that is where I carry most of my tension and pain. Upon entering the treatment room, it was quaint and perfect. My therapist started off in the areas that I experience the most pain and quickly helped me relieve the tenderness in those areas which I was so grateful for. I've been into countless other massage rooms where I spend nearly an arm and a leg and don't even provide any relief like my therapist Tina did! I was sooo so grateful, I could've cried. Throughout the whole treatment I felt really comforted and taken care of. Her touch was firm but most of all, perfect. The technique was unlike any other massage I've had in the best way possible. It felt like a lot of acupressure involved which I appreciated. The music was serene and the essential oils really help you relax! The 60 minutes felt like an eternity but in the best way possible because you just feel so well taken care of. Every minute feels set with intention. Thank you so much ABD Spa and Tina!! I am so grateful and can't wait to book my next appointment!

So where do I begin…read more.. I was a little flustered when arriving to Burke Williams. It was my first time there and no one warned me about the parking situation or that I would have to go down an alley to find the spa. I didn't plan for these issues which caused me to be late. I did try to call but the number isn't directly linked to the Pasadena location. However, they did promise to forward my message. When checking in I explained this to the receptionist and he treated me with the utmost care and respect. He pushed back my appointment time by 30minutes so that I had time to settle in and prepare for my treatment which I truly appreciate thank you. I was given a tour of the spa and introduced to all the amenities. My appointment was for the 60min 4-Layer Resurfacing Facial. When booking and confirming my appointment they did give me a heads up and informed me not to use the hot sauna or spa with this type of treatment. They also suggest arriving 30 minutes early to use the amenities but that was not needed considering the treatment I scheduled. After my experience I do recommend arriving early. The Pasadena location is near old town so it's pretty crowded and busy out there. I parked in the structure by Buca Di Beppo but while walking over I saw a small paid parking lot next to the alley where you find the spa. Now when it comes to my spa experience I must say I'm very grateful to have been paired up with Brindle (I hope I spelled her name correctly). They ask you to wait in the main room at least 5 minutes before your appointment. Apparently, I wasn't checked in correctly so I was waiting a little past my appointment time. They noticed me sitting/ waiting and started asking questions to help me. I love that everyone works as a team here. They apologized for the inconvenience and got me all situated with Brindle. I have to say... Brindle is the best esthetician! Now when I saw the description for the 4-Layer Resurfacing Facial I thought it was a chemical peel but if I understood Brindle correctly it's not chemical based, it's a less abrasive peel. Regardless, I loved it! I came into that room so tense and I left feeling like I was walking on clouds. Brindle has a calming presence and a soothing voice. I love that she is not afraid to get in there when it comes to getting those impurities stuck in your skin. Also, she is great with her hands. I find that a lot of estheticians are almost afraid to apply any pressure when massaging face/body. Not Brindle! She was right on the money. Overall, I had a great experience and hope to visit again in the near future. :)

For Christmas, my boyfriend got me a sweet and thoughtful gift card to Burke Williams. I decided to…read moreuse it to explore new locations. Previously I have been to the Orange and Mission Viejo locations, so I thought it would be fun to check out the Pasadena location. It's in the Old Town area, and the nearest public parking lot is off Green and Fair Oaks. I really loathe paying for parking and having to walk over. For any first timers to Burke Williams, they are a luxury European style spa, meaning the spa area is generally naked. Bathing suits are optional. In the spa area, they have lockers, a jacuzzi, steam room, sauna, showers, and vanity tables. There are also quiet rooms for napping in its' own area in the front by the lobby. This location only has the lobby as the co-ed hanging out area. Compared to other BW locations, they are smaller and more busy. I usually spend about 3 and a half hours at BWs and this time was the same. I started off with a strong shower. The other locations has their shaving cream for grabs outside, but this location has a shaving cream inside each shower. And then I went over to the jacuzzi, then the sauna, and then to the quiet room for a little nap. Then I showered again before my treatment time and headed to the lobby before my treatment. When it was time for 80 min Pure Relaxation Massage ($245 regular/$285 member pricing), Pearl came to get me from the lobby and welcomed me up the stairs. Most of their treatment rooms seem to be upstairs. The treatment room seemed to have the same equipment and general layout as other BWs but less square footage. I had an amazing time with Pearl. She started off asking me if I had any areas I wanted to focus on, and any injuries or areas to be careful with. She was thoughtful throughout the massage and made sure the pressure was to my liking. There was a good amount of massage oil used the whole treatment. I was soooooo relaxed. Pearl gave my wrist and forearm the additional attention I requested. When the massage was over, she placed my warmed robed on the table, just as expected with all BW massage experiences. I had such a wonderful experience from beginning to end. The highest compliment I can ever give someone is that I would come back and book another massage with Pearl. After my treatment Pearl walked me back towards the lobby and reminded me to stay hydrated for the next few days. She was super sweet and thoughtful and definitely the best encounter I had with the Pasadena location. After my service I went to take another shower and got ready at their vanity tables. Unfortunately there were MULTIPLE dirty brushes in the clean bin. Which reminds me the showers had a lot of hairs on the wall. Super turn off. There was a lot of staff in the spa area so I'm not sure if they missed it since it was so crowded or if they were more focused on other areas of the spa area. Staff also mentioned that this is the oldest location in the area... and I can see that... in the sense that the layout is less thoughtful than the other locations, such as locker rooms where you change is in high foot traffic areas. I waited for a bit at check out, but staff was very helpful. They were able to give me my day pass and bring a friend that was part of the gift card deal that the Mission Viejo location forgot to give me. Loved the massage and the amenities, but I don't enjoy the crowd and there's room for improvement with the cleanliness. I don't blame the business for doing well, but I do feel like they can maintain better cleanliness of their facilities for how much they charge for our services. Of the Burke Williams locations I have been to, my favorite is the Orange location which is the largest, and then Mission Viejo for an intimate quiet experience, and this places last. Nevertheless it's still a superior spa experience where I've never had a bad treatment at any BWs.

I highly recommend the Chuan Spa to anyone staying at the Langham or nearby for a great spa day experience.

I showed up a half an hour early so that I could go and enjoy the sauna and the hot tub and just really get into a fully relaxed state of mind before I went and I had my aromatherapy massage. I do not typically get massages, but I wanted to go and treat myself since I have been stressed lately and was on vacation. It's very serene inside and quiet and everybody is so nice and helpful. My massage was amazing and I felt so relaxed. After afterwards I came back to my room and napped for two hours. This is something that I never really gonna do so it was so worth it. Once my massage was over too they take you into this relaxation lounge and they gave me Me a cup of hibiscus tea and a macaron and there were snacks and more waters and all around. It's just a really great place to go and sit and relax and unwind.

I get a text from the (I'm assuming) owner, a few hours after my 3:00pm appointment (which I'll address later)... telling me that "my Venmo tip payment did not go through"... I responded "it did on my end" then proceeded to screen shot her literally the confirmation at 4:07pm. I get an apology "my fault." Back to this 3:00pm appointment. Which didn't happen at 3:00pm, more like 3:10pm and was awful. I'm not sure if it was the fact that my massage therapist (??) was audibly wheezing but she moved in a way that she was trying to make up for lost time..? In any event, I watched the clock as it struck 4:00pm. Still tipped the instructed $20. Thought, ok I'm not gonna come back, no need to review this place because I just won't give them my business.

My day started with being shown where the changing/locker room is, what to do next and where the lounge area is. There are waters and cups and plenty of seating to choose from while you wait. The fireplace really elevates the lounge. Lana did my CBD oil massage. She was very kind and made sure I was comfortable. I'm not experienced with massages so I had a bit of trouble letting go control of my arm at one point, but she reminded me to relax. Afterward she brought me a drink which is probably normal for them but it was really nice lol. Again I'm not a seasoned spa goer. I really enjoyed the massage though. Next I tried out the sauna for a few minutes which was clean and very relaxing. Up next was my copper bath. When I stepped inside, I felt like royalty because it's set up so pretty with candles and flowers, it's a really nice tub with jets as well. I didn't want that to end haha. Next came my clarifying facial with Arely. This consisted of chemical exfoliation, extractions, an LED mask and a peel. She massaged me a bit as well which was nice. I wasn't sure if the extraction process did anything however because she applied no pressure to extract, it felt like just tapping on areas of my face but it's not a big deal. I can extract at home. The rest was relaxing! I finished the day off with Danielle, who was absolutely phenomenal. She told me exactly what we're doing and made me feel comfortable. First was the scrub, then she got a shower ready for me to rinse off and then brought me fresh water for after. Next came the body melt which smelled fantastic and felt really moisturizing. Danielle went out of her way to even give me a scalp massage and she sent me home with some of the body melt she used. I finished my day feeling at peace, soft and in a great mood. I do think I accidentally left my socks in my robe pocket but it's ok. No pictures because this was a total unplug day for me. No devices, no social media, just being present in the moment.
