I had to have a Swedish massage while in Sweden! Is it really a trip to Sweden without one (and…read moremaybe some meatballs!)? I of course took to Yelp to find the best place to do this. Definitely found the right one! This was a magical experience. The hotel is beautiful, and just screams luxury. I checked in early, because I wanted to have some extra time in the wet areas, and not feel rushed. Everyone was friendly, and I was greeted with a robe, flip flops, and a locker to place my items. The pool, sauna, steam room, hot tub, and cold plunge were all fantastic additions to prepare me for my massage. The massage was wonderful (it was a guy, which at first made me nervous but turned out great), and I left feeling completely relaxed. I did mine in the evening, which was perfect because I was able to shower and go straight to bed! My only complaint would be that it was quite warm in there, so I did sweat, but who doesn't want all the toxins out of your body?! Especially after all the lovely wine and mead on my vacation! No pics as cameras are not allowed!

We got there an hour early to enjoy the myriad of features they had before the massage. In the women's only locker there was a cold plunge, waterfall shower, and sauna. In the co-ed shared space there was a small indoor pool, a room which seemed like a giant jacuzzi, and a steam room. After using all the amenities, we had a wonderful 90 minute Swedish Massage upstairs in their treatment rooms. Fantastic massage and a must while in Stockholm.

The surroundings are historic and gorgeous. The saunas are plentiful, the pool area is relaxing, and just for a few hours, you don't have to do anything except exist. I'll admit that was difficult for me at first, but wonderful once my nervous system caught up. Bring a book and read in one of the little nooks surrounding the pool. Breathe deeply in the herbal sauna or bask in the glow of the infrared one. Enjoy the roman baths, or book a treatment for the ultimate relaxation experience. Whatever you choose to do, do not miss a chance to visit. You will love it.

This massage made me feel INCREDIBLE after. I can raise my arms without feeling like i was rusty. I can lift my shoulders without struggling to get through the tightness. Best thing I've ever done. Best part is I have 5-6 more days of traveling and this will help me carry a backpack on my back without any more pain. The ladies were very accommodating and nice. I would 10000% recommend coming by in the beginning of your trip so you can feel great for the rest of your time/day.

We went looking for a massage place and found this one via reviews and Google. I was a bit…read moreapprehensive the same way I always am when we get a massage at some random place. But there was nothing to worry about. The women here speak good English, which is very helpful when booking. My husband and I were shown to neighboring beds. The room was warm but not hot. The ladies didn't really give us great instructions, so after a lot of laughter and giggling about which blanket goes where, we got it all figured out and started the massage. If you've never had Thai massage before, it's kind of like this petite Asian woman is trying to literally separate the fibers of your muscles by pulling your muscles in opposite directions. But afterward, you feel like 10 million bucks. This massage did use oil (some Thai massages don't) and so it was kind of like a hybrid Thai/deep tissue massage. I felt fabulous afterwards. The prices in general for massages in this part of the world are pretty cheap compared to what we pay in the USA so I was happy to pay and would absolutely come back.

If the queue is long, they take your name and the neighborhood is nice enough to ease the waiting time. But you can't really choose who is going to take care of you. They don't have the capability to wash your hair, and hairdresser expertise is very nice considering the price. I would recommend this place if you want to refresh a good haircut, or if you are changing hairstyle and doing a transition haircut. Or that your haircut is simple and don't require use of several techniques.

He also cut my neck in two places (I'm bleeding) and charged me 100 kr more than the posted price. I am never going back to this place. I recommend you go somewhere else.
