The Spa at The Reykjavik EDITION — Attraction in Reykjavik

I booked based on the google reviews and want to make a very clear overview so others will have a better idea of what to expect. The cost for a non hotel guest without a service add on is 10,000kr, a hotel guest is 4380kr. The spa is well designed, but small, and lacks a cold plunge- only one large hot tub, one small sauna and small steam room. Mostly easy to find space as they don’t seem to over book the number of guests. The lost stars were for the massage. I booked a deep muscle massage and was very clear about my target areas. The masseuse was neither skilled nor deep in pressure whatsoever. Most of the motions they made were closer to a physical therapy appointment and centered around mobility. They did not hit any of my target areas (neck and shoulders) for than a few minutes even after redirecting there and skipping legs. A lot of patting, shaking my arms and general weak rubbing. I am also noting my co worker had a different masseuse who was trained from a doctoral point of view and had a completely different experience - calling it one of the most helpful and overall best massages she has ever had. It’s unfortunate that the experience can vary so widely, and I only note these things so that other potential guests have the information I did not. I will also add that they did honor an incorrect price that was messaged for a day pass, which made up a little bit for the massage that simply was not that. There are quite a lot of spa options in Reykjavik and surround areas - so be sure to request Ricardo if going in...

Amazing location for a spa day. Had a 60 minute swedish massage the day after a long hike. The massage itself was otherworldly. Very professional and talented staff. The environment is quite chic and extremely relaxing. The stay also includes plenty of drinks and snacks in the refreshment room as well as time to enjoy the hammam spa (sauna, steam room, and hot tub) after the massage. Would highly recommend including massage at the end...

The spa environment is impeccable, with a sleek and minimalist design.

My therapist Ricardo was also a chiropractor, and the inner calm massage was very professional and customized, including stretching and bone alignment which helped a lot with travel soreness.

If you receive treatment you gain access to the spa facilities so remember to bring a...
