I got a 60 minute massage coupon off of Groupon. I tried to call twice across two different days and nobody picked up so I showed up in person to book an appointment. It didn't seem too busy and they seem to have a lot of availability in case anybody else is wondering about their walk-ins. I will note they did ask me to pay a five dollar Groupon tax at the beginning of my appointment. They did have a sign for tip policy where the suggested was a minimum of $15 for a 60 minute service. I tipped $15 and they did not beg for tips after which I was a bit anxious about. Anyways, ask for my massage my masseuse was great. She checked in a lot to see if the pressure was ideal. I went with medium strength and it was pretty good. I honestly think I could've gone a little bit harder, but I've heard a lot of stories where massages can be really intense, so I was scared to choose the strongest strength. Overall, the massage was super relaxing and much needed. I would come again. read more

Massage was great but twice in a row the reception asked me to tip more than 18%. Very uncomfortable and definitely not going back because of this. if I wanted to tip more, I would've tipped more. Bad for business. read more

Went twice for a foot massage since we got snowed in (blizzard) and it was just across our hotel (Renaissance Chelsea). Very solid foot massage. They were quite nice! read more

I tried to post this on Groupon twice, but somehow it didn't show up. Got a Groupon for a 90 minute massage (the cost wasn't much less than their regular price) and when I arrived, I was asked to pay $8 "in tax" (not a usual request). I would have been fine with it if the massage had been good... but unfortunately it was subpar, the worst I've had in NYC thus far. It was clear that, while a sweet person, my masseuse was not trained in massage therapy. She just used brute force and elbow strength the whole time. There was so little variation in her moves -- just elbow moves for most of the 90 minutes and mostly on my back (I didn't even turn onto my back). In the moments that she did use her hands, her callouses made it pretty unpleasant. I get a massage once a week so I know what a good masseuse feels like now. I also enjoy medium to hard massages, but this was painful. I had to ask her to be softer 7 or 8 times, and she would for a minute before going hard again. In short, I would not recommend this spa... it's just pretty clear that at least this one masseuse (and probably others) was not accredited. I have a back injury so had I not told her to stop doing some things or to go softer, I might have risked further injury... read more

After finally filling in my 10 punch massage card, We go to redeem it for a free massage and they say it cant be used because they are under new management and rip the card up. Will never go back. read more

I was so pleasantly surprised that I'm giving all the stars! Woke up a block away and rolled on over to Renew where I was taken into a massage room right away, no appointment, o waiting. As a massage therapist and spa owner for 20+ years in a visitor destination I never expect too much but Renew delivered on all things. Clean, friendly, professional, very nice proficient skill for the work they are offering, great price. Fantastic. It is what it is and it delivered. Don't come in here expecting hotel spa amenities or vibe. Just come if you need a respite in the Big City. read more

Massage was fine but it was very loud outside our room as we were closer to the front desk and the staff is loud. There was also construction/drilling in the room next to me and had to ask them to stop. I would go back of it was more quiet. read more

This place is great. Consistently good, strong massage, they're open late, accommodate walk-ins,etc

The therapist was a bit rough. The receptionist tried to tell me how much to tip. I told her that the spa should pay them more. I will not being going back. read more

If you are ever in New York you absolutely MUST try Renew Body Spa at 111 W 25th St! Seven of us received unforgettable massages!! We couldn't stop raving about it. The ambiance was nice, peaceful & clean. The masseuses were incredible. They didn't rush it, took their time. They took out knots I didn't know I had, lol. We were all very satisfied with our 1 hour massages. We paid after, they didn't beg for tips, & even though we wanted to tip our masseuses individually, they pool the tips together & share them among all of the workers. I highly recommend!!! 5 stars!! read more

I enjoyed the massage. The lady did kinda beat me up a little with slapping my body a lot. The place looks decent. They required me to pay beforehand which is typically NOT normal for a service but whatever I paid for the entire service. At the end I give her a tip and she is forcing me to give her more. Respectfully I'm like no this is a SUGGESTED tip. She is saying no I'm required to tip this much. She is making it seem like i didn't pay for my service which i didn't appreciate. I picked up my phone to call my friend and I felt she was nervous I was recording her so she eased up her tone. I won't be going back because of how that situation regarding the tip was approached. You are not going to make me feel like I didn't pay for my service because you want to tell me how much MORE to tip?? A suggested tip for them is have better service! read more

(4/5) I went to Renew Spa for a hot stone massage with Jenny, and it was amazing! She was patient, attentive, and really focused on working out all those tension knots -- I left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed. On my next visit, I had a different therapist (a male masseuse), and the experience wasn't quite the same. He had a different style that didn't work as well for me, though I know everyone has their own technique. Overall, the spa itself is great, and I'd definitely go back -- especially if Jenny is available! read more

Was pleasantly surprised. Spent $55 on a Groupon for a 90 min massage. Paid $8 in taxes and gave a $20 tip. $83 for a 90 min experience is on the cheaper side for massages. I recommend this place and will be coming back. read more

I will NEVERRR come here again or recommend coming here. Not only do they shorten the hour I paid for by 15min ( which was done twice)!!! they force a tip bcs 25$ apparently wasn't good enough. i told them where my pain was but that was ignored. i also asked if we can have a quite session ( I was so tired from work I just wanted to relax) as a paying customer my concerns were not understood. it was convenient bcs I work next door but NEVER EVERR AGAIN THEY NEED ALL STAFF read more

Truly one of the best massages I've had in years! The gal who did my full body (60 min) massage did an amazing job. I am a little sore today but that's simply because I live in a world of stress that has created all these tiny knots across my neck and back. She found each one of them and tried her best to work them out. I feel so good today! I want to add a side note. I had left my mom's necklace there after my massage. I'd left it on a table and realized it about 2 hours later. OMG I cried and figured it was gone. My husband called immediately. They didn't have it but would go look. She found it! This is a diamond cross that my mom left me when she passed away! How easy could that have been lost forever....thank you for keeping it safe until I could get back to pick it up!! read more

I came in today without appointment for a 20min neck/back massage (in-chair) on my lunch break. They had immediate availability, were very cordial and the masseur was fantastic! He was so proficient in finding my stress spots and knots, as well as using heavy pressure (which I often cannot find people to do at that degree). I highly recommend, and will be returning soon! read more

Me and my wife just went there and we give them 10* the place is amazing and make you walk out of there feeling like a million bucks!

I love coming here as it's so close to my job. I found it randomly through Groupon a little more than a year ago and have continued to visit since then. Everytime I come here I'm always satisfied by my masseuse and the service I received. I almost always get just a 60 minute massage. Every masseuse I've had here has known the amount of pressure just by my movements, I never have to explain what I need, they just KNOW. I can't recommend this place enough!! I've paid more for mediocre massages, and will always come back here read more

This was my first time I had appt at other spa up the block but changed mind pick renew body instead place look better and it was the same price n lot of people are going in there so picked the package with the 60 minute massage and feet $85 plus tax. I had a problem with the lady speak no English which didn't explain anything. This is my first time didn't know what to expect She started was all right, really did not care for the head massage I would not get it again next day feel like fell down flight stairs guess normal. I don't know If I go back, maybe just let them do my feet and short massage read more

Groupon has never steered me wrong and they were on target with this one too. WHAT AN AMAZING 90 MINUTE DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE!!! I mean I knew it was real when she straddled my head and got deep into my back; I was in Heaven. And just to be sure it was 90min I set my own timer on my phone. She was about 15 seconds short, but who's counting . I feel all loosey goosey. Needless to say I will be back. And the card she gave she said was cheaper than Groupon as I am a member now. Yesssss ma'am. I'll be making another appointment for 2 weeks from today. read more

Renew Body Spa - That Us relaxing! - Massage Near Me - New York, New York

I have been coming here since it opened a few years ago. Actually, been very regular - once a week / once every two weeks. Always thought the service was pretty good and the massages were decent. It's not fancy, but it's clean. Unfortunately, it's changed a lot over the years and not in a good way. The prices were always pretty competitive (but certainly not the lowest). I never really minded as the place was clean and respectable. Unfortunately, they have raised prices and now have become very aggressive with demanding a massive tip. By the way, there are 5-6 places within a few blocks that all charge the same amount. The front desk person has changed and now they try to make you pay upfront - umm no thank you. I'll pay after the service. Additionally, when paying they tried to overcharge me - $55 for a foot massage vs. the clearly listed $45. Then after giving the masseuse a 20% tip she demanded more. I politely told her that I've been coming for years and always give this amount. She became aggressive and in my face ranting about being mistreated. I really think it's just gotten out of hand. This place seems to not want to pay their employees and wants customers to give a massive tip - she was saying $20 for a $45 service. A gratuity is based on the level of service and is not a requirement - if it was, it would be included in the price, which it clearly wasn't. Unfortunately, after several years of loyal patronage, I won't be coming back. read more

Before the service even started, we were told there would be a "tax" added for booking through groupon and they did not honor the price I was quoted over the phone. Customer service was decent (I do not use that word strongly) but the massage therapists are clearly untrained. Maybe they are fine for a mani/pedi, but go somewhere else for a massage. I stopped my service ten minutes in and she still tried to charge me...then went down to charging me at a discount. Edit: They do not offer mani/pedis so there is no reason to come. I also forgot to mention I got a hot stone massage and they just simply didn't have hot stones. 0/10 Edit 2: Forgot to mention, she completely violated my boundaries after telling her twice there is no reason for my butt to be exposed. She kept pulling the towel further down than it needed to be and was incredibly dismissive Edit 3: She told me she would not charge me if I agreed not to leave a review read more

Customer service was horrible. We went in the night before to ask for pricing and availability. The lady at the desk gave us the card and said that we could just walk in. The card says they're open until 12 but they close at 10pm but if you want to go In After 10, just call and make an appt. So I called and made and appt for 3 people. As soon as we walked in they were asking us for payment. If you pay with card you pay taxes. He was charging me $55/person when the card they gave me the night before clearly has $49 per person. I asked him why the difference and he respond "no price change". I explained to him that I had just been in the night before and was given those prices. He didn't care and would not budge. $6 is not a huge difference but it's the principal. That was the price I was quoted and that's the price on the card I was given. They have a board with different prices. He was not trying to keep our business until we were walking out. He them lowered it to $50 but I was over it and found another place. read more

Renew Body Spa was exactly what I needed to end my week and start my weekend Off right! Jack was my masseuse, and he was great! My massage was the perfect combination of gentle and forceful. The spa was jumping and rightfully so in a Friday night! My room very was clean and serene. The reception, as well as my check out was seamless. I can't wait to book my next session! read more

Nissa and coco were awesome. We did the full body couples massage and really enjoyed it. They were so courteous and continuously asked if the level was ok. The place is super cute and clean and just had a good vibe. Will return! read more

Pleasantly surprised and much needed after two days of walking 15k each around nyc. I found it on Yelp as we were already in chelsea. First the decor was nicer than expected given the pricing was inexpensive. $49 cash for half hour body and half hour foot reflexology. It's $54 if you use credit card. We paid $60 cash each. Started with foot. No soak but they rubbed our feet with warm clothes and started rubbing right away. I fell asleep in total bliss Then we went into a room for body massage. Usually this is just okay with places that cost little. My masseuse coco was great. Expert technique and got me all relaxed. The hot stone at the end was a nice surprise to get there full relaxation. So worth it. Hubby liked his masseuse as well. Highly recommend. read more

I've been here before and it was good. But this past weekend, I had the worst massage of my life. I'm still in pain! It was a bad experience all around. A buddy and I went there after an active day. I requested appointments with masseuses for 2 men. For some reason, they put us in the same room. 2 straight men have no desire for couples massage! That itself was uncomfortable. But made worse by the fact that then, the 2 women kept chatting with each other. That is not relaxing! And non of that is anything compared to the abuse this woman inflicted. She had no technique whatsoever and was violent! She was jamming her elbow into my neck! WTF? I understand that she didn't speak much English. But that is no excuse. If I am screaming in pain from what you are doing, stop doing it you psycho! At some point I jumped up and yelled. The other woman asked what was wrong. I said "tell her to stop!". She had gotten hot stones and of course they were too hot. She kept putting them down because they were burning her hands. Then why the f*ck are you trying to put them on my back! I told her they're too hot and to stop. She did. And then, went right back to it. I stopped her again and she started back up again. That is a moron! Nothing to do with language! I had to keep asking her to use her hands and not her elbows or forearms. I finally gave up and asked her to stop altogether. I went in feeling a bit stiff. I came out bruised, battered and with pain that I still have 3 days later. read more

Usually good massages but this place has the rudest management who allow their employees to yell at customers after giving horrendous massages and not listening to a word they're saying during the massage. If you have an issue, good luck trying to even ask the staff to fix it. read more

Service requested and the vibe was amazing!! From the moment we walked in the door the staff was great and attentive!

Great, affordable massage that is clean and friendly. While in vacation with friends, we came in twice to get massages. Both times I did the 30 min foot and 30 min body massage. Pressure was great and found those knots perfectly. You can choose to be in a private room or in the front room in a chair but stay fully clothed. I suggest the rooms where it's a bit quieter and feels more like a 'real' massage. I would definitely come back when I'm in NYC again read more

Leaving an appointment, walking, and spotted this gem otw to the train. Saw great prices and walked in. It was quiet, tranquil, great lighting (much dimmer then posted pictures) calming music and EXTREMELY CLEAN! I was given the option of a table or recliner massage. So, I Tabled it! 30 Back, 30 feet. Man! Let me tell you!! I had Tina, an older gentle soul with an elbow to sooth out the toughness knots. Warm oils, hot stone, warm clothes. Thank you Tina. I think I love you . They offer a deal of 10 visits get 1 free. So I'll be bringing my friends. I felt sooo good for the rest of the day. Relaxed, great circulation, wonderful air flow. Just Amazing. I'm going back. I recommend! read more

A clean and beautiful place. The cashier to the masseuse were all really nice. There massage was strong, but not quite strong enough for me. After my massage, all the masseuse( even the ones who didn't work on me) gathered around me, waited, and watched as I tipped the two masseuse I had use. A little bizarre, but the price are great, and it's a great quick tune up when needed. read more

Highly recommend this place for a foot massage. I have been here multiple times whenever I visit NYC. I typically get a 60-minute foot massage and I feel rejuvenated after. The new staff are doing an amazing job and know how to give proper massages. Bring cash for your massage. Or else they charge a surcharge for using your credit or debit card. read more

I love this place. It is a local gem. Where else in Chelsea can you get a one-hour massage for $60? And the Massuer's are amazing, better than you find at high-end places like Equinox. Highly recommend!! read more

Incredible! Love the atmosphere again, called for reservation and I was taken care of by Jasmine so quick! I had Su who took care of me and goodness she is amazing! Very detailed and knows how to be hard but not too hard where it's painful and unbearable. I've been coming here for 3 years and I also found them on Yelp, so when you are in Chelsea stop by and bring a friend too. read more
