The good: I came on mother's day with a Costco gift card and…read morehad an amazing and relaxing time! I only had a 35 minute massage but it was so thorough I felt more relaxed than I have at other massages that were 60-90 minutes. It helped a lot to have had warm tea and gone in a warm jacuzzi before the massage because I felt extra loose/relaxed. I liked the giant "MOM" lettering they had in the waiting area with roses for mother's day and the bonus butterfly gummies they gave as a special treat (similar to Sugarfina's). When you enter the spa on the 2nd floor you feel transported to a totally different zen Southeast Asia boutique. They have fake orchids/bamboo and fans that give it a SE Asia feel. They had lemonade and lemongrass tea that was self-serve. The tea was delicious! The jacuzzi was nice and I had it to myself for half of the time. I didn't use the sauna or steam room but they weren't full either. The robes were heavy and big so it covered you up a lot which made it easier to change in and out of clothes. You can wear your swimwear into the jacuzzi unlike at some of the Korean day spas. You can come 1 hour before your massage or facial service to use the communal jacuzzi/sauna area. My massage therapist was professional, thoughtful, thorough, strong and gave a great hand massage! The bad: Someone's phone alarm was going off for a really long time in the women's locker room. The interesting: The upstairs is normally for men but on mother's day they turned it into the "zen" floor and allowed women (no men that day).

It's a little closer drive from Long Beach and since gas it's crazy expensive, that's a win for me! The place was super clean, well organized, and labeled. I spent a few hours in the women's only area going back and forth between the hot tubs, cold plunge and wet and dry saunas. My muscles feel super happy! After I have myself a good scrub I got dressed and made my way down to the co-ed portion. There I found a good spot to plop my mat down and work on a paper since it is finals week for me. After that I made my way to the cafeteria for some Spicy Beef Noodle soup. I was surprised at the price tag--$20 for a bowl, but the portion and especially the taste justified it. Definitely ok for a once in a while treat! I ended my 6 hour spa day with sitting outside and working some more on homework before calling it quits. Overall, Riviera is such a gem. $30 for a spa pass to soak, sweat and eat your stress away, will always be worth it in my book. Can't wait to be back soon. :)

Went to Riviera Health Spa with two friends on March 24th. We booked the oil massage ($90 package,…read morewhich includes a day spa pass for $30), but we will never be coming back. After the service, we each received envelopes requesting tips. This was reasonable, but since it was never stated on the website, before, or even during, the service provided. The package we purchased sounded like everything was included, so unfortunately, we did not bring cash. My friend's masseuse, Choi, began giving us odd looks as we were packing up. As soon as we began to leave, we saw her standing by the door blocking our exit. She begins screaming at us, yelling "these three girls did not tip!"in front of all the patrons in the lobby. I ask the front desk attendant if there is any way I can tip with card because I don't have cash on me. She refers me to the ATM inside but when I show her that it fails, she doesn't budge, and the masseuse continues screaming, still blocking the entrance. The front desk lady tells us that just this once I can pay for a cash tip with my card, no option of leaving without one. I ask her to tip $36, and she pretends she doesn't hear me, saying, "$46?" twice after I repeat "no, $36" before shaking her head, sighing loudly, and saying, "if you really want to tip $36 then go ahead". I give her my card and she tosses cash down on the counter. The second the envelopes are stuffed, everyone's demeanor completely changes and suddenly they're thanking us, waving goodbye, and wishing us a good night and to come back again soon. My party including myself are minors. We were scared of what would happen if we didn't tip. I would have been happy to tip if the situation was handled any other way, but this was outrageous, since we were intimidated into not being able to leave. This was supposed to be a fun and relaxing birthday getaway trip, but ended up being the scariest and most frustrating part of our time in LA. I keep seeing the team reply to reviews similar to this with a ChatGPT generated response saying that this is not their standard, but there are so many reviews saying otherwise. Will be choosing any spa but this one from now on.

From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was serene and inviting, with soft spa music and a calming blend of vanilla and lavender oils setting the perfect tone (I picked that combination). I chose the Tranquil Journey and enjoyed every moment of it so much that I immediately booked my next session - this is officially my new monthly self-care ritual! Sequita took the time to understand my skin's needs, recommending only the essential products to get me started on my skincare journey. I appreciated that there was no pressure to buy more than what was necessary - just a thoughtful, intentional start. To top it all off, she mailed me a personalized card with clear instructions for my daily routine. That level of care and detail left a lasting impression. I'm truly looking forward to my next visit!

She and Denise sat with me individually to discuss my needs for the facial and massage. 3. The massage that included dry brush and scrub! I've been having this left shoulder pain/knot that I'd wake up with some tingling from time to time for a long time....that pain is GONE!! Denise communicated to make sure the pressure was to my liking and it was heavenly! Perfect pressure, super relaxing, and she paid attention to all the little tension spots I didn't even realize were tight. 4. The facial...it's probably been at least a year since I've had one and I felt like it showed! I needed this and Sequita was super knowledgeable and customized the facial to exactly what my skin needed--my face was literally glowing.

The concerning part is not just the complaints themselves, but the pattern. Different reviewers…read morecontinue describing the exact same issues: poor management responsiveness, lack of accountability, declining class quality and availability, instructor turnover, cancellations with poor communication, clique-like behavior in certain classes, and an overall dismissive customer service culture. When the same concerns appear repeatedly over a long period of time without meaningful improvement, it reflects a leadership problem. For a premium-priced membership, members should not have to deal with frequent class cancellations, instructors abruptly quitting, or reduced schedules. Multiple instructors leaving is also a significant indicator of internal dissatisfaction. High turnover rarely happens in healthy, well-supported environments. Members are paying not only for equipment access, but for consistency, professionalism, and reliable programming. Another major concern repeatedly mentioned is the atmosphere surrounding the Zumba classes. A public gym should never feel socially exclusive or intimidating. Reviews consistently describe clique behavior, territorial attitudes over spots, rude conduct, excessive noise, and instructors allegedly siding with regular groups instead of maintaining professionalism and inclusivity. That is not the type of culture a fitness business should normalize. Operationally, there also appears to be a lack of attention to member experience: canceled classes communicated only through website updates instead of direct notifications, unresolved concerns despite suggestion boxes and reviews, overcrowding issues, members occupying equipment while on phones, and complaints about cleanliness and room conditions between classes. The most disappointing aspect is that these do not appear to be new concerns. They have allegedly been ongoing for months, yet review after review suggests management remains defensive or disengaged rather than solution-oriented. Long-term customer retention cannot thrive under those conditions. People may initially join because the concept of a women's gym is appealing, but retention depends on members feeling respected, heard, welcomed, and valued consistently. Until ownership demonstrates a genuine willingness to address these recurring concerns in a meaningful and proactive way, I cannot support this business and would advise potential members to thoroughly research current experiences before committing financially.

And she was AMAZING! From the minute I walked in she was extremely nice, helpful, and very informing. Throughout my facial she always made sure I was okay and comfortable. She also would inform me before putting any products on my face. It was a 55min lymphatic drainage massage and it was AMAZING! My face and chin felt so snatched afterwards, my face looked clearer and felt softer! I will be coming back this month to try one of their facials along side the lymphatic drainage!

We were fortunate to book the Valentine's Day couples massage package, which made the visit even more special. While the pricing may be slightly higher than other Korean spas, the value becomes very clear once you experience the level of privacy and care they provide. If you're someone who appreciates quiet, personal time whether as a couple or with family, this is absolutely the right place. The package included a full massage along with access to the hot stone spa. The hot stone spa area also features a shower whirlpool, which was incredibly relaxing. They provide shampoo, body wash, and hair treatment products, but you're welcome to bring your own if you prefer. Before entering, they provide two sets of clothing: one designated for the hot stone spa and a long gown for the massage session, which adds a thoughtful and comfortable touch to the experience. Overall, the atmosphere reflects a very refined and authentic Japanese cultural aesthetic, peaceful, clean, and detail-oriented. It truly felt like a private retreat rather than just a spa visit. Highly recommended for special occasions or anyone looking to unwind in a more intimate setting.
