Big crack in door to shower
Yula K.

I'm stuck somewhere between 3 and 4 stars -- I enjoyed my first visit to both the infrared sauna and the cold plunge, but not sure this is a place I would visit regularly. The private sauna was nice and cozy with built in speakers to listen to music or watch tv. You pay for a full hour but they seem to be pretty strict about stopping you after 45 minutes. That was more than enough time for me, but I do not know why they advertise a full hour then. I'm glad I tried the cold plunge but mostly because I felt like I needed to shower. This didn't necessarily feel like the cleanest place, unfortunately. There were plenty of people coming in and out and I don't believe any of the rooms were cleaned while I was there. I know somebody used the cold plunge after I did which seems unsanitary. Also the floors were all very wet which insinuates people were in the cold plunge before me, and there isn't much space to get changed into dry clothes afterwards. There are signs that say "get naked" but I would certainly advise wearing a bathing suit! Besides the sauna rooms, it unfortunately doesn't feel very private here either. You need to go through the lone hallway to get from the sauna to the cold plunge, which is a straight shot out through the front door and onto the street. I don't necessarily want all of Santa Monica Blvd to see me in a towel for free, though the people should be so lucky to! Also there's a massive crack in the door that leads to the shower and cold plunge room. Like you can probably see the person in the shower from the hallway if you look through the crack, it was very noticeable and a little concerning

Group sauna

I found this spot via ClassPass and had a great experience! My friend and I went for a group sauna and loved our experience. The staff was flexible about is changing our time the day of, which was awesome. The group sauna experience was great! We had a large room to ourselves with a large sauna that held us both easily. We loved that they had a tv setup that we could use watch with Netflix too. It was also nice to have the room for when we needed breaks! We ended up showering after and the shower area was nice. They have wonderful soaps and a vitamin c infused shower head. Also got additional complimentary towels for this! Great vibes, great space, and helpful staff!

Beautiful space! It's been a while since I've done a cold plunge and found this beautiful place via ClassPass. Carly helped answer some questions on the phone and was sweet and super patient. I ended up doing the infrared first. I found street parking a block away, wasn't bad at all. I noticed ppl in line out the door for a place called Mamie, asked Carly about it, she recommended it. Separate review lol. Infrared first. Room is beautiful. Love the setup with the tvs, felt super peaceful and was very relaxing. Carly showed me my cold plunge room on our walk down the hall. It was close enough that I felt comfortable darting across the hall in my bikini and a little towel. Cold plunge space is beautiful, and it's the equivalent of a sit down bath tub. The showers in the room and stocked with Ursa Major which are great products. It's also a vitamin c shower which is super dope! Idk if it was the infrared first or just changes in my body but I wasn't able to plunge like normal when I went, and that's ok I meet my body where it is. It's still a lovely space that I will visit again. I will tell you that if you're going to hit Mamie after, order before you leave! Great spot, all the amenities and ofc I love the name!

I love coming to this homey sanctuary. The staff is so kind and friendly. Beau is the absolute best! He is the face of this establishment and runs it perfectly. While in the infrared sauna you can watch some Netflix or meditate while you detox, relieve pain, improve circulation, rejuvenate your skin and burn some calories! This session is 45 minute increments. After the infrared sauna, enjoy the the physical benefits of cold plunging. Experts say cold water immersion can decrease inflammation, offer a huge rush of endorphins, spike dopamine, improve sleep and mood, reduce stress, help remedy aches and pains, boost injury recovery, reduce swelling, potentially increase testosterone, promote lymphatic drainage, regulate hormones and accelerate metabolism. This session is 20 minutes. After leaving here you will feel revived and ready to take on the world! You must add this place to your weekly routine and it will change your life!

Wet towel + Netflix Remote

3.5/5 stars. This was my first time trying LIV, but not my first time doing infrared sauna. So my review is mixed. For starters the male at the front desk was nice + accommodating all day from when I called in until when I arrived for my session. My room suite was a nice size, and had the tv as well. Pros: I did like the the sauna was a smaller one because I feel like I got the full benefits and really got to sweat and detox. So after the 45 minutes I was feeling refreshed. Cons:My Netflix remote was damaged, and the inside of my sauna had a weird like pee smell which bothered me a bit during my session. I could hear people yelling (maybe talking loud) in the hallway during my session. There's only 1 shower, and it's located in the plunge room. Therefore unless you book the plunge room or no one else is in it you have access to the shower. So I would definitely recommend you calling ahead to check availability. I'm sure it's a popular locals place, and it's good for th Benifits and what you need. But not for me because I couldn't get with the smell. In all - I still recommend the experience.

Lovely space! Clean and great hours. Highly recommend for cold plunge & sauna. Easy metered parking all around.

Came here to try out the facilities and it was a pretty cool experience. You can choose between the suana or the plunge baths. The space was super clean and loved the serene feeling. I chose to do the suana and love how there was a TV inside to watch Netflix. Very cool experience. I only wish I had known you can only use shower if you reserved it after your session. Unfortunately it was booked after mine, so I had to wait till I got home to do that. But overall, I had a good experience.

Love this spot! All the employees are friendly and have great energy. The unlimited infrared sauna and cold plunge membership is definitely worth the price. They have speakers inside the sauna so you can meditate and zen out while you sweat‍ The cold plunge takes some getting used to but your body will thank you for it later.

I wanted to try something new in West Hollywood area so I decided give a shot to LIV, the experience overall is great, The rooms are pretty spacious are private..there is a tv and Apple Remote to watch stuff while in the sauna, the guy in the front is friendly and easy going...the only cons I would say is the parking situation as there is only street parking and a few reserved spots in the back, but overall I enjoyed my experience and will probably come back! Cheers

Best Korean spa I've been to in LA. Everything was very clean and well maintained -- clay room,…read moresalt room, jacuzzis, steam and dry rooms were all spotless. The atmosphere was calm and respectful, and the staff was wonderful. Helen did my scrub and did an excellent job (on the harsher side, which I loved). The gentleman at the front desk was very polite and friendly. I immediately recommended this place to my group chat and will definitely be back. The only thing missing is food options -- hope they add some in the future.

Came on a weekday morning which is much quieter and rooms/jacuzzis are smaller in comparison to…read moresome of the other Korean spas I've been to (i.e. IrvineSpa, KSpa in Buena Park). This is great if you want it quiet. Not a place you come with a bunch of friends that want to socialize. $3 validated parking for the Central Plaza parking garage right across from it. Came when they had 50% off admission which was $25 but seemed overpriced if you are a guy. Pros: -Unlimited Reishi mushroom tea. They also have water and coffee everywhere. -Large sized towel, robe, slippers in the locker. -3 jacuzzis (Himalayan salt, alkaline, citrus) , wet sauna (love that it's like a fog/mist and not shower sprayers!), dry sauna, and 3 specialized rooms (Infrared, salt, and mud room w small heated balls which was my favorite). All was great, but wish there was a cold pool in the women's area too. Cons/Room for improvement: -Though they now have a clothed, co-ed section, it is underwhelming. -The jacuzzi was warm, not hot. -There was a waterfall pool but was very shallow and also just warm. -Cold Plunge is a 5 ft. deep pool that had a rickety ladder to get in/out of. It would've been nice if it had a seat. -The wet and dry saunas were off and took a while to turn on, but never got hot. My guy friend gave feedback on the men's locker room: -no restroom inside -no sinks inside - no sit down showers which the women's side has If I were a guy, I wouldn't come just for the spa as it just feels like a side amenity. And definitely expensive even at $25.

Their vitamin IVs and NAD therapy take things to a whole new level, giving my body the nutrients and support it craves for optimal performance and vitality.

Tomoko Spa is located on a very busy street, but you forget all that as soon as you step inside. They do a really great job of creating a quiet and relaxing atmosphere. The experience starts with a 15 min foot soak/massage, and that already was divine. The masseuse puts the perfect amount of pressure, and that combined with the warm water, almost put me to sleep, haha. For the body massage part, the masseuse asks you what parts you want focused on and how much pressure you would like. They are also really good at checking in at various parts of the massage to make sure you are completely satisfied. I really appreciated how thorough they are with the massage and also how proactive they are in making sure you are enjoying the experience. At the end of the massage, we were given hand-whisked matcha tea to drink, and they also provided us jelly, a handwritten note, and a rose to celebrate our anniversary :) We had such a lovely experience, and I cannot recommend this place enough, whether to celebrate a special occasion, or just to treat yourself! ** If you book a couple's massage, they provide complimentary parking in the lot next to the spa, otherwise there's paid street parking or parking garages available nearby
