Paradise Men’s Spa

Nathan gave the best massage of my life. It was a mixture of thai massage at the beginning with pressure and stretching and then deep tissue with oil. I extended it to 90 minutes during the session. It was worth every penny! I’ll be back next week.

This place is fantastic. I had a Delux pedicure a hot tea and great service from a very friendly staff. I’m coming back for a massage tomorrow

Best massage I’ve had in NY. Very clean and extremely professional. The cost ($ 99/​hr if you pay cash) is more than some of the bare-​bones Chinese massage places in the city, but you get what you pay for. Each room has a standing shower for use before and/​or after your massage. They offer you water or tea before you go in. I recommend Antony — he’s strong but checks with you to make sure it’s not too much pressure. He also spends time on arms and legs, which is great after all the walking New-​Yorkers do. Highly recommended.

I get A LOT of massages. Honestly, Nathan gives one of the best I’ve ever experienced. Combo Thai/​deep tissue was amazing. The place is also immaculate and comfortable. Plus reasonably priced!
My new go-​to!

The experience was mediocre at best. We had agreed to a spa manicure, but the receptionist cheated us by doing the hot milk spa manicure and charged us for the more expensive. My therapist used paper towels to scrub the mask from my forearm instead of an actual towel. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Very clean and professional. I would highly recommend seeing Yuki.

Nice place. Clean, relaxing atmosphere. The treatment areas are separate from the front desk so you’re not staring at guys while they are getting their nails done. I got an hour massage from Antony. He was great. The room was quiet and had a shower in it as well.

Paradise men’s spa is the best men’s spa that I have been too and I am so happy to have found it.
The space is very well maintained. It is clean and spacious unlike a lot of the other men’s spaces that I have visited in NYC.
I go there regularly and get a massage from Anton. He is a great masseuse (very good looking too :))

I’ve always had a great experience here whether it was a manicure/​pedicure, the courteous and accommodating management or a 90 minute deep tissue massage. If you go, make sure you book an appointment with Ben. I’ve been getting massages for years and booking with Ben was one of the best massages I’ve had. I’ve been going to him for 2 months now, once a week. Combination of really deep tissue and stretches is the perfect recipe for a good nights sleep and to get those knots out.

I have been here twice. I give it 3 stars because one visit was AMAZING and the second was TERRIBLE. On my first visit i had a 90 minute massage with Omar. He is a great massage therapist and did perfect work. The room was nice and quiet, located down stairs.
My second visit was the exact opposite! I booked another 90 minute massage, but Omar wasnt working, so they put me with Ben. The spa wasnt busy but they had my massage on the first floor right off of the pedicure area. it was loud the entire time, and all i could hear was people talking, workers cleaning and such, not very relaxing. Ben spent about 80% of my «massage» doing stretching… i DIDNT go in for a stretching session, i went in for a massage. The other 20% of the massage was not good. He did a lot of aggressive rubbing, not massaging. He also kept stopping to drink his energy drink every few minutes. Weird never had that happen before.
Very unhappy with my second visit.
If you are going to to here… see Omar!
I will go back but will only see Omar on future visits

Went there todayand received a 60 min massage by Ben. Really good and professional, booked an appointment same day. Will visit again

Great experience today! I was able to make a same day appointment and they were very friendly at the front desk. I was happy to take the 20% off that they offered. The space is very nice and super clean. OMAR was my therapist and I got exactly what i needed which was a soothing relaxing massage without walking away in pain. They have showers in each of the massage rooms which is a big plus. Not quite a high end spa but has some great amenities. I will definitely be back.

PHENOMENAL package deal. I loved the mani/​pedi, facial, and hour long massage for a total of 3 hours. I was leery at first because it was a fairly expensive package but worth every dollar. The staff was professional and attentive. All practitioners knew their specialties inside and out. KUDOS!

Pedicure service is amazing here. Luis, Kai or Uki are good choices. I am going to experience their massage therapist today for the first time. A review will follow this afternoon. 20% off massage on Mondays. I have a sore lower back and tight upper back. Stay tuned for my review later on this afternoon.

Very friendly staff. Always on time with massage appointments. I haven’t had a bad therapist, but I highly recommend Austin!

I had a whole body wax/​sugar hair removal with Louis yesterday. He did an absolutely phenomenal job. I was greeted with a glass of wine to get relaxed, then invited to shower to enhance the preparation my skin for the process. I was very impressed with the Spa, the manner of the staff, and, of course, Louis. We got started after a second glass of wine and he went to work very quietly and very effectively. I could not be happier. I left with clear instructions on how to care for my skin in the future and suggestions on products to help me avoid any problems with the hair removal. I am so happy with this experience and the results that I will definitely be back.
I am a very discriminating straight man with high expectations for professional services. I have read reviews of the Spa that are not great. The Spa is beautiful, well-​maintained and provides great service. Louis has earned a lifetime A++++++++++ from me and I trust that this review will wipe out whatever negative impressions of the Spa that may exist in the community.

WHAT happened to this place??! This used to be my go to place for a great massage. NOT anymore… Horrible service and poorly run, the masseurs do not even take the time to finish the full massage. Normally when I ask for a 75 minute massage I expect them to do my calves and feet… he said he «had run out of time»…ie had an appointment outside. When I asked for a clean towel afterwards, he handed me a wet towel that had obviously been used.
Dealing with the staff and manager is nightmare, they are rude and if you are not careful will always try to over charge. That will certainly be my last visit to «Paradise»…not worth it.

Like the reviewer Patrick W., I decided to try this place out as a replacement to Nickel. Acknowledging the issues with Nickel, this place fails to compare. While the space seems to be organized for a spa experience, issues with sound and the proximity to other clients is an issue. It’s very difficult to relax and enjoy spa services, when staff members are constantly passing by discussing everything from appointments, to issues with staff to welcome patrons, to everything else imaginable.
In terms of the services, the $ 50 «Dream Spa Pedicure» was no better than a $ 20 nail salon. The technician did not have a grasp of the craft and treated each foot differently than the other. I would expect if one foot gets a hot towel wrap, the other should also receive the same service.
Also, I had a 30 min reflexology service. To say it was a joke is being generous. I have never had a reputable spa, try and perform reflexology while at the pedicure station. To have your foot slipping and sliding, not addressing the heel (because of course it’s very difficult to address while sitting), and having your other foot sitting in a tub of tepid water, is a disaster. Reputable spas performs body-​work services on a table. For a service that is $ 60 for 30 minutes, not be performed correctly, should be an embarrassment, and as stated before, a joke.
There are quite a few additional issues, but why bother. Go to a $ 20 place and save your money.

I went to this spa because I live in the area and was looking to get some tired back muscles worked out. It was very last minute on a Saturday evening and I was hoping for an intense massage — the kind that makes you want to go right to sleep after.
I don’t know the masseuse’s name, but he proceeded to give me THE WORST massage I’ve ever gotten. And I’ve gotten good $ 60 massages in little nail salons that far surpassed this one. This is no Bliss experience for sure; and I have no problem paying $ 120 or more for a really good massage.
The guy used no pressure at all, despite me telling him over and over to do so. He spent way to much time wiping off the lotion rather than getting on with the massage. Because he took so long, he ran out of time before he could complete the full-​body massage that I ordered.
And to top it all off, the cost was well over $ 100. I left him a tip begrudgingly — I did not think he deserved one, and frankly I wanted my money back.
If this is the kind of service this place always gives, my advice is to steer clear.

My girlfriend got me a gift certificate for the holidays which I used for a manicure, pedicure and 60 minute massage. Luis did a great job turning the raptor-​like claws that served as my feet into some a little more human. Seriously, I think I lost a shoe size when they removed the calluses. After having my talons and claws reduced to non-​lethal appendages, I got a 60-​minute Swedish/​deep-​tissue massage. It was great. About midway through it I fell asleep as I felt so relaxed. That’s saying a lot given that my back and shoulders are pretty much in a constant state of spasmodic agony. After 60 minutes I walked out feeling like a new man composed of jelly.
Overall, it was a great experience. They took their time making sure everything was done right and I was blissfully relaxed by the time I left.
