Editorial Review for Newbury Day Spa – by Ellen Roberts

In Shirt
Patrons waiting to be plucked and rubbed pass the time by lounging in antique-inspired chairs surrounded by mauve-colored walls. Subtle, harmonious music contributes to a soothing of the spirit. The staff is friendly and accommodating, and the prices are reasonable by Newbury Street standards. For a special treat, guests can opt for a day of luxury that combines aromatherapy massage, deluxe facial, body polish treatment, manicure, pedicure, makeup application, lunch and parking.

Insider Tips

When to Go

Pressed for time? Try the "Lunch Time Escape" package: A paraffin manicure and pedicure plus a light, healthy lunch. (Warning: It isn't cheap.)

Know Before You Go

Many people stop in by mistake, confusing this with 30 Newbury Day Spa, just a few doors down.

The Extras

Don't be surprised to see a noteworthy actress or politician sitting next to you--the spa-less Ritz-Carlton is located across the street.

Gratuity

Gratuity cannot be added to a credit card payment, so make sure to have cash for a tip.

Call Ahead

If you must cancel an appointment please give 48 hours for a weekend appointment and 24 hours for a weekday appointment.

User Reviews for Newbury Day Spa

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

I called this salon to book 2 appointments for me and my good friend. I was looking on their web-site and I noticed they had a different price quoted than what the lady was telling me. She rudely told me that because they have just moved to "Newbury street" their prices have increased and they will not honor their old pricing...even though it was on their web-site. That was fine by me at the time as I was still interested in booking the appointments. Well, the owner ( she identified herself as such) told me to "have a nice day". When I asked if I could still book the appointment she gave me a firm "NO" and again told me to have a nice day. Horrible! I guess with the move to Newbury street the owner must have felt that she didn't need the 2 new clients to add to the spa's base of customers. I was highly offended and booked the spa treatment at her neighbors on Newbury street. I will not be recommending that salon to anyone I know. 2 words to describe: Pompous and ignorant!!

It was my first time getting a Brazilian, and Irene was amazing!!! She was quick and gentle, and made me fell very comfortable. Also, she was very sanitary, using new sticks, despite what other reviews might have said. I'm going back to Irene, Ive already made my next appointment!!!

Pros: quick and thorough service

Cons: the tiny elevator
