2 Hour Relaxation Luxury Spa Package at Fah Lanna Spa – Old City Branch
Chiang Mai is an excellent place to schedule a massage, and Fah Lanna Spa gives you two treatments in one polished visit: foot reflexology followed by an aromatherapy oil massage. The setting is quiet, the staff takes time to discuss your needs, and your private room keeps the session calm and personal.
I like the efficient two-hour format and the chance to shape the treatment after the health consultation. I also like the thoughtful extras, especially the included snacks and peaceful garden setting. The main caution is value: at $76.15 per person, this is far more expensive than a basic Chiang Mai massage, and treatment quality can vary by therapist.
Key points to know before booking

- Two treatments in one visit: The package combines reflexology foot massage with aromatherapy oil massage.
- Private treatment room: Your group receives its own room, rather than joining a shared spa session.
- Consultation comes first: Arrive 15 minutes early to complete the health card and explain any concerns.
- A calm Old City setting: The spa is at 57/1 Wiang Kaew Road, near public transportation, with gardens to enjoy while waiting.
- The bath is not included: A previous customer expected bath access, but Fah Lanna explains that this belongs to its separate Royal Bath package.
- Plan your timing carefully: Arriving more than 15 minutes late can mean losing the appointment slot, with no refund.
Two hours of calm in Chiang Mai’s Old City

The appeal of this package is simple: you can pause your sightseeing without giving up the whole day. The appointment lasts about two hours, and once you leave, your schedule is open for temples, food, shopping, or a quiet afternoon.
Fah Lanna Spa’s Old City branch is at 57, 57/1 Wiang Kaew Road in Si Phum. You can make your own way there, and the location is near public transportation. Give yourself extra time to find the entrance, especially if you are navigating Chiang Mai on foot or by local transport.
The spa is designed to feel removed from the traffic and activity outside. The gardens are part of the experience, giving you a pleasant place to wait before treatment. That matters because the transition from street noise to quiet is part of what makes a spa visit feel worthwhile.
This is not a group tour. Only your party takes part, and treatment is provided in a private room. That makes the package a good choice for couples, friends, or solo visitors who want privacy rather than the open-room setup found at many inexpensive massage shops.

What happens when you arrive

Plan to arrive 15 minutes before your appointment. You will need to fill out a consultation card before treatment begins. Use that moment to mention areas of tension, injuries, medical concerns, or preferences about pressure and scent.
The consultation is more than paperwork. It gives the therapist a chance to adjust the session to you. One customer specifically praised how a therapist named Apple used the information on the card to help with muscle tension caused by long hours at a computer.
Your therapist’s name is not guaranteed in advance. Past treatments have been praised by name, including Fha, Yok, Apple, and Pham, but you should not book this package expecting one particular person unless the spa confirms that request separately.
After the consultation, you go to a private treatment room. The room is intended for complete relaxation, with the two therapies arranged as one continuous spa visit. Staff members also explain the process and manual, which can help if you are unfamiliar with the treatment sequence.
Foot reflexology followed by aromatherapy oil massage
The package’s biggest practical advantage is variety. Instead of spending two hours on one style of massage, you receive a foot reflexology treatment and an aromatherapy oil massage.
Foot reflexology provides a focused start. Your feet often take a beating during a Chiang Mai holiday, especially if you have spent the day walking between temples, markets, and restaurants. A foot treatment can feel like a sensible way to begin, helping you settle before the longer oil massage.
The aromatherapy oil massage then shifts the focus to broader relaxation. Oil allows smooth, flowing movements rather than the stretching and pressure associated with traditional Thai massage. If you prefer a gentle, restful treatment, this format may suit you better than a more active massage.
You can also ask about other therapies. The booking is described as a private experience with some flexibility, so the spa may be able to adjust the treatment choice. Still, confirm any changes before the appointment, particularly if you want a specific massage style or extra service.
The consultation is especially important here. Tell the therapist if you prefer firm or light pressure, and mention any areas you want treated carefully. Do not assume that a luxury package automatically means strong pressure or a particular technique.
The setting is part of what you pay for
Fah Lanna Spa is positioned as a multi-award-winning luxury spa, and the atmosphere supports that higher price. You are paying for more than hands-on treatment. You are also paying for a private room, trained staff, a consultation, a polished setting, and the convenience of combining two therapies in one appointment.
The gardens help make the visit feel separate from ordinary street-side massage shops. You might sit in the garden before treatment, and the quiet setting gives you time to slow down rather than being moved straight from reception to a massage bed.
Staff friendliness is another strong point. The reception and café teams have been praised for being patient, kind, and helpful when explaining the process. Credit card payment is accepted, which is useful if you have limited Thai cash on hand.
The included snacks are a small but welcome extra. They do not transform the value of the package, but they make the appointment feel more complete. You can enjoy them during the visit rather than rushing away the moment treatment ends.

What the $76.15 price really means

At $76.15 per person, this package sits well above the price of a simple local massage in Chiang Mai. If your only goal is an inexpensive foot massage, you can find cheaper options. This package makes more sense when you care about the full setting, privacy, two-part treatment, and organized service.
For a special occasion, a recovery break after a busy sightseeing day, or a final treat before flying home, the price may feel reasonable. The two-hour length also gives you a substantial appointment without taking the entire day.
Still, you should keep your expectations in check. A higher price does not guarantee that every therapist will match your preferred style. One person can deliver an excellent massage, while another may feel merely adequate. That inconsistency is the clearest concern in the available feedback.
If dependable value matters more than atmosphere, compare this package with smaller local massage shops before booking. If you want a refined setting and private treatment, Fah Lanna’s added cost is easier to justify.
Important details about the bath and shower
Do not book this package expecting a bath. Bath access belongs to the separate Fah Lanna Royal Bath package, not this two-hour relaxation package.
That distinction matters because the aromatherapy oil massage may leave you wanting a shower afterward. A shower is present in at least some treatment rooms, but customers have not always been invited to use it. Ask the staff about shower access when you arrive if that is important to you.
The same applies to any other facility or add-on you have seen described elsewhere. Confirm what your specific package includes before treatment begins. Here, the confirmed inclusions are local taxes, snacks, and the luxury spa package itself.
How the timing affects your day
The two-hour appointment is easy to fit into a Chiang Mai itinerary. You can schedule it in the morning and spend the afternoon sightseeing, or book it after a day in the Old City when your feet and shoulders need a break.
Do not cut it close. Arriving within 15 minutes after your appointment time can put the reservation at risk. If the room or therapist is no longer available, the spa may offer a later time or date, depending on availability, but a late arrival is not refundable.
This rule is reasonable for a treatment that requires a room and therapist, but it makes punctuality important. Build in time for traffic, finding the address, and completing the health card.
The experience ends back at the same meeting point. There is no transport included, so you are responsible for getting to and from the spa.
Who will enjoy this package most

I would recommend this experience to you if you want a comfortable, private spa visit and do not want to spend time comparing dozens of massage shops. It also suits anyone who likes combining treatments rather than committing to one technique for two hours.
It is a good fit for:
- Couples wanting a shared spa outing with private treatment space
- Solo visitors who prefer a polished setting
- People with tired feet after walking around Chiang Mai
- Visitors who want a relaxing break before an evening meal or flight
- Anyone who values card payment, clear service, and a consultation
I would be more cautious if you are highly particular about pressure, therapist style, or shower access. Tell the staff your preferences clearly, and ask what can be arranged before the massage starts.
Children must be accompanied by an adult, and most people can participate. If you have a health issue that affects massage, use the consultation to discuss it before treatment begins.
What the praise tells you, and what it does not
The strongest pattern is the setting. The spa is repeatedly described as peaceful, beautiful, and removed from the noise of the Old City. Friendly staff and careful explanations also receive strong praise.
Several therapists have made a memorable difference. Fha was praised for excellent pressure and flow, Yok for a shoulder, neck, and head massage, Apple for responding to computer-related muscle tension, and Pham for providing a relaxing return visit. These names show what a skilled therapist can add, but they do not guarantee who will treat you.
The less flattering points are useful. One customer found the service overpriced and expected bath access. Another had two different massage experiences, one excellent and one only average. Those comments do not cancel out the spa’s strengths, but they remind you that luxury surroundings and a famous name do not remove normal variation between therapists.
That is why I would focus on communication. Complete the consultation carefully. Ask about the oil, pressure, shower, and exact treatment order. A few clear questions can help turn a pleasant appointment into the kind of session you want.
Cancellation and booking advice
You can cancel up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Cancellations or changes made within 24 hours are not refundable or accepted.
Confirmation is usually sent at booking. If you reserve within three days of the appointment, confirmation may take up to 48 hours and depends on availability.
Because the package is private, only your group participates. Book early if you need a particular time, especially if your Chiang Mai schedule is tight.
Should you book the Fah Lanna Spa package?
Book it if you want a private, well-presented spa visit with two treatments, a consultation, snacks, and a peaceful Old City setting. The two-hour length is practical, and the experience leaves the rest of your day free.
Skip it if your priority is the lowest possible price, a guaranteed bath, or a particular therapist. At $76.15, the setting and service need to matter to you for the cost to make sense.
My advice is to arrive early, state your pressure preferences, and confirm shower and treatment details. If you treat this as a polished Chiang Mai wellness experience rather than a bargain massage, it is a sensible splurge.
