How it works

How we list spas in Hanoi

Published prices, stated tipping policy, the public rating, and what reviewers keep saying — gathered from each spa’s own site and public reviews, dated, and sourced.

Published prices only

Prices come from the spa’s own website or menu. When none is published, the listing says “on request”.

Themes, not cherry-picks

Highlights and watch-outs summarise what many public reviews repeat, not one glowing or furious post.

No pay-to-play

Spas cannot pay to be listed, to rank higher, or to have a watch-out removed. There is no affiliate commission.

Dated and sourced

Every listing shows the date it was checked and links the pages its facts came from.

Five steps per listing

  1. 1

    Shortlist spas that appear consistently in Google Maps, TripAdvisor and respected Hanoi guides.

  2. 2

    Confirm the spa is operating: address, hours and contact from its own site or Google listing.

  3. 3

    Copy the published menu (60-minute massage first) into VND, and note the tipping or service-charge policy.

  4. 4

    Read recent public reviews and summarise the recurring praise and the recurring caveats.

  5. 5

    Record the public Google rating and review count, the check date, and every source URL.

Questions we get asked

Have you visited every spa?

Listings are compiled from public sources, not from first-hand visits, and the page never claims otherwise. Visitor reviews written on this site are first-hand and labelled as such.

Where does the star rating come from?

It is the public Google or TripAdvisor rating — whichever has more reviews — on the date shown. The ranking weights rating lightly by review volume so a 5.0 from a handful of reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from thousands.

Why do some spas show “price on request”?

Because they do not publish a price list online. We would rather show nothing than an estimate that turns out wrong at the counter.

I run a spa. How do I fix my listing?
