Salamander Spa Washington DC

"A fine mix of hospitality with luxury,complete with highly dedicated staff. While the stay continues,one staff member who caught our attention because of her passion for what she is doing is Eskedar. For 6 days we enjoyed every moment besides Mrs Eskedar, the other staff members who caught my attention because of their passion for what they do were : Dolly, Soto and Jesus, they were at the 8th floor for breakfast."

"The Spa is under renovation so services were not to Spa level expectations. There is no use of any spa amenities, which is a let down, the price was not adjusted to spa being renovated. I got no robe no slippers not offered refreshing drinks, no after spa services area to freshen up. They also didn't mention anything about it being renovated, I hope others read reviews so they’re not disappointed. I clearly didn’t. On a good note my massage was awesome thank you for helping me decompress."

"Enjoyed my 80 minutes massage, one of the best that I had in a long time. The spa / hotel is under renovation, so not a nice waiting area or relaxing space but the treatment rooms, bed and everything is top notch!!! I definitely will return when I go back to DC."

"It was not worth the cost of the services. The Spa is under renovation so services are being performed in a suite. There is no use of any other spa amenities, which is a downgrade, however the price does not reflect such, and is not comparable to what is offered. Although I enjoyed the service itself, I felt robbed. I waited an hour past my appointment time because a therapist did not show up. I was unable to use a gift certificate which was sold under the premise of "no expectation date" because it was purchased while the company was Mandarin Oriental even I never received notice of the policy. The atmosphere simply did not measure up. The prices are still set for luxury services and I did not receive a luxury experience. I would not recommend patronizing the Spa at this time."

"My husband treated me to a wonderful spa day here yesterday for an early Mother's Day present and I was blown away by how wonderful my experience would be! Amazing service, super clean, very professional staff, and I was treated with the best care during my facial and massage. Everything was explained to me very thoroughly so that I knew what I was getting. Not a minute was wasted, and the wonderful lady taking care of me made sure that I was comfortable at all times (making sure the volume was good, making sure the temperature of the room and water was to my liking, etc). I was super relaxed and very happy at the end of my session. I highly recommend it here!"
