amaranth spa at Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok

I booked the time stop treatment for 12,000 bhat. It was an aromatherapy bath, a massage and a facial. It was supposed to include a vegetarian meal. The spa itself was gorgeous and everyone sweet enough. The massage and facial were good. It was more the rest of the experience that made it not worth the price tag. There was a thoughtlessness about the flow and it took a lot to get through the algorithms when I was having hot flushes and needed some water or a snack. Getting out of the tub was a messy affair without much thought about towels and what I will step on while dripping wet or for rinsing. After the treatment during what is supposed to be quiet time with some tea the woman decided to come and settle the bill instead of either doing it before the treatment or when I am ready and walking out. I thought the meal was going to be served in the spa but it was in the noisy 5th floor restaurant and I had to pay for my water. I’m also not sure why everything had to have eggs in it. I don’t recommend this package but do recommend the massage or the facial on their own. Much better value for money.
