For a $45 60min hard massage you should definitely leave atleast 50%. That's an insanely low price. Maybe they get mad because they give you an inch and you want a yard? Theyre already cheaper than any other massage I've found and then you want to give them a crappy tip because you got a good deal. How selfish are you? Then saying you'd never go back. Good! Stay away. They ought to just charge you more and avoid this nonsense with you people read more

I use to live in Schaumburg, I would get a 90 massage once a week. Now that I've moved its hard to travel to the spa. They are the best, clean, professional and care. I recommend Royal Spa, always get a massage before traveling. See ya soon. Quality at its best. read more

This place is amazingly affordable. I had a WONDERFUL 1.5hr massage today by Tina! I thought LILLY was the best but TINA had the right pressure and she massage all my aches and pains. I feel so good in this moment. It's the best kept affordable secret Thank you Tina for such a wonderful experience! I will definitely be back read more

Expect to pay double the listed prices. Or get Aggressive harassment if you don't. Apparently they do not believe in the American way of how tips and money transactions for services function, as they act like they are still in China on this. If they see you gave less than a 50% tip, they will say YOU DIDN'T PAY ENOUGH TIP, and will harass and bully you to give what THEY want YOU to give as a sufficient tip. Apparently they do not know what a tip in this country means. A tip is optional, and it is not mandatory. I can only assume they do not pay their employees, and expect you to pay double, for both the services rendered, and also for what they don't pay their own masseuses. This terribly greedy negative experience of being YELLED at by an older woman for NOT TIPPING ENOUGH! after a massage, means they have lost all returning business... I will never go back there again and I hope no one else does to teach them a vital lesson. Either raise your prices and pay your employees yourselves properly so they don't rely on tips at all, and therefore do not harass your customers by denigrating them for not giving a 50-100% tip, or don't do anything, and don't change, just slowly lose all your customers by doing what you are already doing, and then run yourselves out of business... The last thing on earth you should be doing is making your customers run away and never come back, by treating them like crap for not tipping enough. A 50% tip is not obligatory. read more

Went for a couple massage, got separated! Gave me a massage thru my winter jacket! Everytime I tried to take off just my jacket they said "no, no,no!" Would never ever go back! read more

3 stars only because of the hard working masseuse. You are forced to tip a specific amount. Most times the masseuse will be coughing or laughing or talking to their colleagues. Sometimes there are kids laughing and running around. I've been here many times and it really is a hit or miss. read more

Really good place to get a quick deep massage on your back and feet. Schedule an appointment by calling in and show up! It's definitely a good and safe place for men, women, and couples to get a massage! Brian had went deep into a problem area that I had. I told him my problem areas and he dug in. You can get a combo or only focus on the feet. The price was not expensive at all! You can also request a male or female depending on your comfort level. read more

I was a little intimidated to try a new massage place, but I was glad I did. Actually, I went to Foot Fitness, but that place screwed up my appointment. Then I decided to walk in to Royal Foot Spa. The front desk was nice, spoke clear English and got me in right away. The place is clean. The massage was comfortable, not too rough. The 70-minute combination massage included hot stone and oil massage. The lady made sure oil won't get to my hair when she worked on my back. At the end, she wiped down oil with a hot towel. I felt so good. My shoulders no long stiif. Definitely, I will go back. They have a punch card. 10 times get 1 free, I think. read more

This is my "go to" place for many years. I think I caused confusion by over-tipping them. I enjoyed the fact that I could receive an excellent massage at a fraction of the price "american" spa's were charging. I still came away having saved $10 or $20...........unfortunately, they have harassed people for large tips........not the thing to do.........better to re-adjust the prices on the menu, and get the tipping down to 20% for excellent service.......etc etc........HOPE THIS HELPS. read more

This place is the best , friendly staff, Lilly and Mike were absolutely awesome.One of the best massages I have ever had. The ambiance, the soft music, and clean facility. You will not be disappointed. read more

I loved it. I recommended to my husband and I am going today AGAIN! Very nice and comfortable. Relaxing. read more

I absolutely love this place! I've read some comments about the staff expecting at least 50% tip. I've never experienced this. It always tipped as much as I felt was a good tip (never 50% of the service price) and never had any issues. The staff was/is always friendly and accommodating. And the service itself never fails to please. read more

1 Word: AMAZING I've been going to this outstanding reflexology spa since it opened. The therapists there are amazing, and I'm so blessed that they know all my aches and pains and work hard to get me better. KUDOS KUDOS KUDOS The ONLY down fall- they need a huge sign saying: NO TALKING BEYOND THIS POINT... reception area! It's rude!! We all work hard for our money, let us enjoy the hour to decompress! read more

Usually they are pretty good but this time the masseuse kept talking and laughing with the other masseuse during the massage and was quick to get it over with. For the pressure points, he stabbed my feet and hands with his fingernails which was not pleasant at all. He did these bullshit stretches but no actual working of the muscles, just rubbing in the moisturizer which I barely consider a massage. Not returning here and throwing away the punch card. read more

I came here without an appointment on my lunch break looking for relief. I had slept on my neck wrong and couldn't look up without stabbing pain. I had a 30 minute chair massage and it helped immensely. Will be back soon for the full body thing, because if the chair massage was that great, the rest of my can't wait! read more

This is my goto place for my monthly massages. This is my time to relax and get distressed. They are very sanitary, and especially during this COVID times, I trust this place with my health. They cater to your massage needs, where you need more pressure, pains etc. Customer service is great. They also offer free sauna, which is also nice, spacious and clean. read more

Best place ever!!!!! You can't beat them for the price!!! I love everyone there and I have never left there less than completely satisfied and thrilled!!! Thank you for all your hard work read more

First, for those that complained about it being too rough and/or that the therapists aren't licensed, you probably had no business coming to a massage place like this to begin with.. My wife and I treated ourselves to 80 minute full body massages. -outstanding! I've experienced foot and body massages in China and this place is just as good and in some cases, better. We live a very active lifestyle so this place will see a bunch of business from us moving forward. Clean, friendly and accommodating! read more

These foot massage places are great for a couple of things and if anything else, an easy experience to try Ancient Chinese medicine... I kid somewhat, I don't know much about it, but it's pretty cool that in many cultures, massage isn't a luxury, it's a part of good health. The ambiance of Royal Foot is very enticing. The waiting room is bright and clean and inside was soft lit, muted violet rooms, openness and the chairs are quite spaced out. Not bad! Went in for a 60 min foot massage. Unlike other places, it's not a lazy boy recliner that I've seen before, rather you lay flat on a giant couch cushion and your legs bent at 90 degrees to soak. Tips: 1) Wipe down your face and hair. I got my face massaged! Like forehead, jaw, cheeks, eyebrow, nose- I actually found that to be relaxing. Scalp massage lovely will become disheveled. 2) Loose shirt, pants that roll up. (Massaging arm includes the pits... kind of a surprise for me) The first 30-40min was pleasant. In fact, I totally knocked out during the foot massage. She even had this warm/hot stone that she rubs on your feet. The back was a different story. I always dread a back massage since I'm rather ticklish and it can be quite painful. I went in with an already sore left neck/arm/back. During the process, it hurts like a... mofo., but later that night, I was so sleepy I had to crawl to bed. Maybe it got my lymph nodes moving, I don't know, but I think the kink in my neck is better. Missed out on the sauna even though it was part of it... could have asked, but I was pretty much done afterwards. read more

Lady at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming. Room was semi private with three beds fairly spaced out. Massage was good...Did feel a Little rushed but, good overall. Appeared to be very clean and well kept. They offer a water bottle after massage. I'll definitely come back. They also offer a 10 punch card for a free massage after 10. read more

Great place! 3rd time going and have had great experiences. Got the hour $45 combo and it's been amazing. They massage your feet, legs, hands and back. And do the hot stones on your legs and back. The place is clean, comfortable and I've left feeling super relaxed. You also get a punch card that after 10 massages you get a 30min one free. read more

This was the best massage I have had in a long long time! Super clean and really nice compared to the foot spa I was going to near our old home. At first I was not sure because it was more expensive but when I left, it was totally worth it. I went with my husband and we were able to be in an area with just each other. We did the combo and ended up adding an extra 10 so did the 70 min and the extra 10 made all the difference! Will be back for sure!! read more

4 stars for spacious and clean place, friendly staff, semi private rooms, and great value. I found this deal on groupon for $23 for 1 hour of foot massage (includes foot soak during the face/head/neck/arms massage then moves on to 20 minutes of full back massage ), regularly $28 without the groupon deal. Great value! Unlike some other foot massage joints where all the massage chairs are all in the same room feeling like you're in a sweatshop factory with all the workers and products are in the same cramped space. RFS has about 4 semi private rooms with 2-4 chairs in them. I can appreciate this because although I'm not fully undressed during the massage, I really don't want to be in the same room as other people snoring or watching other people fall into a coma during their massage . Which brings me to deduct 1 star from my rating. During my massage with my friend, they snuck in another customer halfway through our massage causing noise and disturbance to ours. I don't understand why they did that since the place was empty and there are other rooms to stick that other person into. As far as the actual massage, it was as anyone would expect for a reflexology focusing on pressure points and blah blah blah. My masseuse asked a couple of times how the pressure was and I gladly gave him my opinion to make it softer or more firm as I desired. In these types of places, they don't know their own strength until you tell them what is good for you... So speak up! Otherwise you might feel like you got beat because it borders masochism. The couple who greeted the guests were uber nice as if they owned the place. They probably do! So kudos for great customer service and ease in making an appointment same day. So there you go, get poked and take pleasure! Enjoy! read more

I came across this foot spa through a Groupon deal. As soon I entered the place the relaxing ambience set in fast. Prepare for much needed R&R from the moment you walk in! I was early for my appointment so they kindly offered me the sauna services while I waited. The sauna room had soothing music playing in the background and clean shower services for after. The shampoo and conditioner smelled amazing! Now for the massage, let's just say especially for the reasonable prices, these people knew what they were doing. My feet had been killing me (post Vegas weekend) but after this foot and full body massage I was definitely ready to dance again haha. My neck, back, and legs were relieved of so much tension. I highly recommend this place, I promise you will leave relaxed! read more

Ok so this was not what I expected. I thought I was going on for a foot rub of some kind. Definitely way more than that. Neck shoulder calves butt back fingers toes ear lobes forehead nose and more. This was like a serious massage. I thought it was over at least 3 times, and her fingers and elbows and maybe knees just kept on walking all over me. Fully clothed. Good thing I wore shorts and a t. Ladies, Wear the tiniest tank you have. Trust me. Fellas, wear that tank top your wife doesn't want to be seen in public with you. Prices. There is no groupon discount. It's the same price. $28. I told them I was first time customer,groupon is doing 20% code, yada yada yada... and boom! For it down to $23. As for a tip, I calculated before I went in that $7 would be plenty. 25%. I just was so chill be the massage I slipped her a 10. Not sure what the happy ending policy. Sorry guys. I didn't ask. read more

This is one of the best massage places I have ever been too. If I could go once a week I would. They really take their time to work on every muscle of your body and you come out of there feeling so relaxed. I usually go for the 60 minute foot massage which is only $30 but the massages are so great I tip generously and I'm still saving money than getting a massage at a high end spa. read more

Tried this place a couple times... not a fan. The hostess (owner) is nice and accomodating... but the services are below par for me, and I will not be going back read more

Fabulous and relaxing ...CLEAN FRIENDLY STAFF. someone commented on doing a 60/90 minute and was asked to remove their shirt which is 100 percent appropriate ! Its dona all the time in a professional manner, otherwise the masseuse would not be able to give you a complete massage . Its done at all massage places . My recommendation for females is to wear yoga/sweats and a camisole (i take my straps down for comfort and accessibility. They work VERY hard to provide a great experience , 5.00 tip is just unacceptable.... read more

massage was ok but both front lady and therapist were very rude upon payment. I paid 20% tip but they requested 33%. when i denied the amiunt, the therapist said oh Jesus! i felt vey bad and never come nack! read more

Very rude desk lady.. they raised their prices or didn't show me both price sheets. Prolly won't go back because she was so rude. Not only once but twice she was very rude to me. Massage was good but not worth being rude to read more

Clean....yes Friendly at front desk....yes Massage was terrible!!! I asked several times to ease up and I'm thinking he didn't understand English Left in lots of pain .... almost in tears!!!! Not at all what I expected :( read more

Nice place. Keep in mind that this is a Chinese / Asian style massage which is very different from your massage therapy spa type of placed. For a Chinese massage place, the location is good. Sometimes you will find ones that seem to be in bad areas or look suspicious. The entry and lobby looks new, decorated nicely, and inviting. They only have one couch for waiting, probably need one more. Once you go back for your massage it seems pretty big inside. Looks new and decorated nice. Compared to other Chinese places, this is one of the nicest. Now for the massage. I felt compared to other Chinese places, the pressure wasn't as good. Most Chinese places are strong and deep, at times almost hurting. I guess most people would like the lower pressure. I recommend checking it out. read more

First time going here. I'm currently suffering from lower back pain. It's very clean and they are very nice. Great massage. I'll be back in the future. Highly recommend read more

It was my first time going for a massage here and I kid you not it was amazing. The staff was very professional I didn't know who I would get as my masseuse but Kelly was great! I definitely didn't know that I would be getting a neck and back massage with the foot massage so that was a plus!! I would recommend ladies wearing shorts or lose pants and a tank, otherwise it was really good! I already made my apt for next time and can't wait to go back! read more

Massage was good but verry disappointing that workers tell you the amount they want for the tip. And owners go along with it

Really good massage for this kind of place and for the money. I have been back at least a dozen times. Clean environment and friendly masseuses. They asked if the pressure was ok a few times. They also give you a small bottle of water when finished. The owner/receptionist is super friendly and welcoming. I have walked in as well as called on short notice and always been able to get in. I have been to a few other foot spas and had WEIRD experiences. This one is great! read more

Attention: MINIMUM TIP OF $10 here. Anything less is met with contempt. As for the massage, only masseuse Tom is worth coming here for. Otherwise, go to Groupon and investigate other places. Better, start working on back stretches. Lots of tutorials on you tube. read more

mandatory 20% tip does not Sounds good. I give a good tip, but to demand I just don't like it.

I read the reviews and must say my experience was above and beyond my expectations. The 60 minute foot massage was unbelievable. I am definitely going to make this a regular. Recommending to everyone ...i know they will thank me later. Clean, relaxing atmosphere. Tha massage was one of the best I've had. Next time I'm going for the 80 minute hot stone. The prices are extremely low so leaving a generous tip is no problem. I can not stress enough how fabulous this was. read more
