With multiple locations in Oslo, Dubai, Shanghai and Beijing this contemporary urban retreat is an oasis of peace and tranquility in any big city. For a truly relaxing head and foot massage, be sure to try their Top-to-Toe massage which features two therapist at once.
Ditto. Not worth the money. However, if you insist on trying this outlet since it's in the vicinity of Wangfujing and that it's one of the few "spas" in the area that speaks not only Mandarin, then sure, go for it. Good place for newbies (tourists) but not to experienced folks that know what to expect. Also, DON'T be tempted to buy the membership. It's not worth it either. Dragonfly used to be the leader of "international" spas in China but not any more. They have been much too complacent.
Not worth the money. The massage is passable, but there are many better massages in Beijing and for cheaper prices. It's a bit of a tourist trap and they are just scalping off foreigners who are just having their once-off holiday massage and think it's cheap when they do the currency translation. Not for repeat customers - you can get better value and better massages elsewhere in Beijing. The so-called "Ultimate Indulgence" was nothing special and doesn't even include massage oil - you have to pay extra. The Crystal House is over-exaggerated - it's just a room with a shower.
Bad room layout. Bad privacy.
Most people probably feel immediately sleepy in the relaxing, quiet spa rooms at Dragonfly. But I found myself talking a lot: asking lots of questions about headaches and about spas in general, which meant that my massage therapist’s mouth was as busy as her hands! I enjoyed my treatment in Dragonfly’s biggest room, Crystal House, which is the only room in the spa with a private shower. My therapist was only 20 years old, was softly spoken, and was very skill at massaging. She regularly asked me if I felt comfortable – if I needed the pressure harder or softer. My advice is to not even think about the pressure. Just lie back and enjoy.
FANTASTIC!
