I went to Graceful Spa for the first time this week for a hot stone massage as part of Spa Week. Pros: it was inexpensive, yes, but for $50 during spa week I could have gotten...

Unbelievable 1/22/2006

When my girl friend treated me to Graceful Spa for their 2 hrs special, I never thought I would find it my favorite spa. The facial was relaxing and the massage re-energizing. I highly recommand anyone who hasn't tried out this place to check it out! Pros: Awesome Massage, Great Facial, Outstanding Value Cons: Semi-Privacy more

Great massage, not spa, this is the place! 1/5/2006

Today 1/5/06 I just had a lunch time 45 min massage because my back has been killing me due to stress and working at the computer. The massage was a little painful because my back was stiff, but when I got back to work I feel so much better, I can focus better, and the pain is gone. I would def recommend this to those who are looking for a serious massage, not someone who is going to put on a show with all their scented oils, and fancy decoration. Also the receptionist was very sweet very calming voice. Pros: Location, Friendly Staff, Not rushed Cons: Paper Sheets, Curtain Walls, Decoration more

best find 12/5/2005

Probably I tried more then hundreds spas around the world. And I have to tell you that massage at graceful spa is the best top three for my choice. Althought they don't have fancy decorations but who cares when you are facing down 90% of the time. Went back three times with three different therapists already, I have to say that they all really good. Graceful is definitely my favor spa for massage. Pros: Professional, Clean, Cosy Cons: Simple Decoration more

You call this a spa?!?!? 10/31/2005

Went with a girlfriend who came into town for the week. Sure, the prices are low, but this is nowhere near worthy of being called a ""Spa."" The Ikea artwork should have been a warning. We could hear everything that was going on around us - from other customers making weird noises to random people chatting around the area. Not relaxing at all. Worst part, I got the sense from my therapist that she was just going through the motions. We left feeling very unsatisfied. I guess you get what you pay for. Pros: low price Cons: uninspired massage, noise more

A Great Way to Relax.!!! 8/30/2005

This is the best way to relax after a long day at work. The massage is deep, soothing and very relaxing. It has a very comfortable enviornment, which helps you to relax the minute you walk in the door. I would recommend this to everyone who is a little stressed out. more

NO Frills but the Best in Town 8/11/2005

Great massage if you want a nice deep massage. I would not recommend this place for those that want a serene environment with candles and new age music. However, if you are looking for a real massage for great value - this is the place for you. I come here as often as I can because I would rather a real massage than fluff. Pros: Value more

You Get What You Pay For 8/7/2005

I did not enjoy the Graceful experience. The receptionist was aloof. The space was clean, but the massage area was too clinical, and I was not prepared to be so close to the other folks receiving treatment, only a curtain separates you from others, and you can hear everything that is happening to someone else. The massage was good, I suppose, i.e. I could tell the woman was talented, but it was more painful than relaxing. There was NO preliminary anything to assess my needs beforehand, and the paper covers on the table were uncomfortable. The worst was the awful sound of the alarm clock/egg timer that rang out at the end of my session. I would have preferred the sound of my cell phone! This is definitely a case of you get what you pay for. Better to spend a few more bucks for some amenities. Pros: affordable, clean Cons: little privacy, aloof receptionist more

No Atmosphere, but good value 7/17/2005

I decided to check it out after reading good reviews The receptionist wasn't particularly friendly-- and didn't bother to greet me by my name. The biggest con is that there are no private rooms, you are merely seperated by curtains from the person next to you. Early on, my facialist accidently moved the curtain and I was able to see the person next to me (naked) so i can only imagine if anyone saw me! Only one person seemed to know English (even my facilist didn't- but she was very sweet). The facial was pretty good, especially for the price. So if you're looking for a ""spa"" experience, this is NOT the place. There is not much ambiance or atmosphere, and the facilities are really mediocre and disappointing. But if you are just looking for a good service at a good price-- this is a good place. Pros: inexpensive, good services Cons: language barrier, no total privacy more

Nice hard massage 3/25/2005

good basic massage. booked 2 x 90 minute massages for myself and friend. we were put up front right by 14th street, so it wasn't very relaxing as there was a lot of traffic noise. wished there were private rooms instead of curtains - you could hear everyone's alarm going off. wished they wouldn't use paper sheets, otherwise my massage was really good, got the kinks out. Pros: inexpensive, experienced Cons: paper sheets, noise more

Wonderful 3/24/2005

My first facial and it was great. My face has never felt this clean and clear. Used the discount, but would go back at full price. Staff was friendly and professional. It was nice and quiet-I couldn't hear 14th St. traffic at all. The massage was excellent-I will have to work it into my budget, and at $40 for a 1/2 hour I don't think it will be a problem. Pros: Atmosphere, Pleasant Staff, Skilled Staff Cons: None that I can tell more

Absolutely heavenly! 3/11/2005

The best, most relaxing and totally affordable spa day I had....EVER. I've been to other spas throughout the US from overpriced-all you really pay for is decor- joints to cheaper versions but not better joints... and this is by far the one that left me feeling totally relaxed and satisfy with what I paid for. The massage was wonderful. Great technique! Got me feeling loose for days. If you like getting your money's worth on the quality of the treatments then definitely give this place a shot and I'm sure you'll leave feeling satisfy and relax too. Pros: treatment quality, service, simplicity more

Definitely have to try it! 2/7/2005

It's great to know that Graceful Services opened another branch at downtown, it's near where I work...I'm addicted to their services. This time I tried out their facial, oh, that was also outstanding. My face glowed for weeks. I will have to try their hot parafango sometime too... If you never tried graceful massage, or their facial, you are missing a lot... Pros: Great environment, Great Service, Really nice staff more

Great end to a day 1/14/2005

New to the city, searched the web for a place to get a massage and facial. Found Graceful Spa and made appointments. They were extremely patient as my better half was late. Once we got in, the massage with Kelly was AWESOME. And then my facial followed and my relaxation continued! I found my escape spot as I get acclaimated to the City. more

Urban surprise 1/4/2005

I'm always a little bit skeptical about new spa that I never been. Is it nice? Is it clean? Is it worth it? But that day I was so desprate to get a massage and that bright orange sign draws me in to give this place a try. Turns out to be to be AWSOME! The massage was Great, skillful techique, Clean and hip design and blend with the nice music, it's heavenly, out of body experience. By the time it's done, you almost feel lost. Recommended and definitly will go back again. Thanks. Pros: FRESH, RELAX, HEAVENLY more

Best massages I ever had 1/1/2005

When I heard that Graceful was branching out into the Chelsea area, I just had to check it out. I was very satisfied with the new improvements: more spacious and a very hip decor. I went in with a sore back, and the attention that I received from the whole staff from beginning to end has made the whole experience a healing one. I was extremely pleased. Pros: hip decor, experienced staff, excellent massages more
