Hanoi · MASSAGE & RELAXATION
Good massage & spa days fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 5 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
At Serene Spa Hanoi, you’ll begin with a warm salt-and-herb foot soak, then choose a 60 or 90-minute deep tissue massage or another spa treatment. Expect slow, firm strokes, elbow work, Serene oils, shower access, and tea, coffee, fruit, and cookies at the Old Quarter meeting point.
“Very relaxing and staff are friendly. They are so honest with time so money you paid is really worth it.”
At L’essence Spa in Hanoi’s Old Quarter, you receive a four-hour private spa program with oat milk scrub, oat wrap, herbal steam, a 90-minute signature treatment, mature-skin facial, jacuzzi, herbal bath, and drinks. The central location makes it easy to fit into a busy Hanoi day.
“I had a wonderful 4-hour experience of being pampered: Vietnamese massage, Dead Sea salt scrub, Dead Sea mud wrap, facial and ended with a soak in a mineral bath. Definitely worth the cost - the price for walk-ins is a bit higher.”
At Serene Spa in Hanoi’s Old Quarter, you get about four hours of herbal soaking, coconut scrub and wrap treatments, golden signature therapy, facial care, drinks, and light snacks. Therapists named in guest feedback include Jessica, Emma, Anna, Kimberly, and Susan, though your assigned therapist may differ.
“Amazing experience. From the moment we walked in the service was welcoming and professional. My therapist, Jessica, was attentive and polite. She always made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire service. I will probably come back for another service with Jessica!”
Book a private 90-minute Thai Royal massage at Serene Spa Hanoi, near Hoan Kiem Lake. Expect passive stretching, massage, and acupressure, followed by herbal tea and snacks. Therapists named in feedback include Ruby, Jay, Pam, Anna, Moon, Jenna, and Lisa, though staff assignments can change.
“Very good four hand massage. The therapists were very strong and met our expectations. If you’re in Hanoi definitely go visit.”
At Hoang’s Spa on Hang Dieu Street, you’ll enjoy a welcome coffee or tea before a 30-minute foot massage. You can also choose 60 minutes, or 75 minutes with a foot scrub, massage, and foot wrap. Jun and Chi are among the named therapists praised for careful, adjustable pressure.
“Amazing. If you are in Hanoi you must to do a massage here. Beautiful and kind people, smiling & lovely. Rooms are very clean & the girls are professional. Definitely the best Beauty Spa in Hanoi.”
Pick a bay, a bowl or a bike.
