2 Hour Relaxation Luxury Spa Package at Fah Lanna Spa – Old City Branch
Fah Lanna Spa gives you two treatments in one polished Chiang Mai visit: a reflexology foot massage followed by an aromatherapy oil massage. You start with a health consultation, then move to a private treatment room, so the experience feels personal rather than rushed.
I like the peaceful setting and the fact that your afternoon remains free after two hours. I also like the practical Old City location, included snacks, and friendly staff who explain the process clearly. The catch is price: at about $76.15 per person, it costs more than many neighborhood massage shops, and treatment quality can vary between therapists.
Key points to know
- Two treatments in one session: The package combines foot reflexology with an aromatherapy oil massage.
- Private treatment room: Your group receives its own room rather than joining a shared spa area.
- Health consultation first: You fill out a consultation card so the therapist can understand your needs.
- Old City location: The spa is at 57, 57/1 Wiang Kaew Road, near public transportation.
- Arrive 15 minutes early: Late arrival can shorten your appointment or lead to rescheduling.
- High-end pricing: The setting and service are more polished than a basic street-side massage, but the cost deserves careful thought.
A two-hour reset in Chiang Mai’s Old City

This package is built for the middle of a busy Chiang Mai itinerary. You do not need to give up a full day for it. After roughly two hours at Fah Lanna Spa, you can return to temple visits, food stops, shopping, or a quiet evening.
The visit begins at Fah Lanna Spa’s Old City branch. You should arrive 15 minutes before your appointment. That extra time matters because you need to complete a consultation card, and the spa has a firm policy on late arrivals.
After the consultation, you receive your treatment in a private spa room. The standard package pairs a reflexology foot massage with an aromatherapy oil massage. The exact order and treatment details should be confirmed at the spa, especially if you have a preference or want to ask about another therapy.
The experience ends where it began, at the Old City branch. There is no transportation included, but the spa is near public transportation, and the central address makes it practical for a day spent around the old moat.

Finding Fah Lanna Spa at 57 Wiang Kaew Road
The address is Fah Lanna Spa, Old City, at 57, 57/1 Wiang Kaew Road, Tambon Si Phum, Mueang Chiang Mai. It is a useful location if you are already exploring the Old City.
You are responsible for getting there, so allow time for traffic and for finding the entrance. A mobile ticket makes the booking easy to keep on your phone. I would still save the address and appointment time somewhere easy to access, since a spa appointment is less forgiving than a flexible sightseeing stop.
The branch is close to public transportation, but no pickup is included. If you are staying elsewhere in Chiang Mai, build in enough time for the ride. The spa will not simply hold the appointment indefinitely if you arrive late.
That policy is worth taking seriously. If you arrive more than 15 minutes after the scheduled time, the appointment may be given to someone else. A late booking can sometimes be moved to another time or date if space is available, but a refund is not guaranteed.
The consultation card sets the tone

The health consultation is a small part of the visit, but it is one of the more useful details. It gives you a chance to mention concerns before the massage starts.
If you have sore shoulders, sensitive areas, recent injuries, or pressure preferences, this is the moment to bring them up. The treatment is meant to relax you, not make you endure a massage that does not suit your body.
The consultation also helps the therapist adapt the session. One customer specifically appreciated how therapist Apple used the information on the form to address muscle tension from long hours at a computer. That is a good reminder to be specific rather than simply checking a general relaxation box.
You should also ask clear questions before entering the treatment room. The standard experience includes foot reflexology and aromatherapy oil massage, but the package information allows for other therapy choices. If you want to change the treatment plan, confirm what is included and whether the timing stays the same.
Reflexology first: a focused start

The foot reflexology portion gives the session a clear opening. Rather than beginning with a full-body oil treatment, you start with attention on the feet.
The available information does not specify the precise reflexology sequence or pressure style, so you should explain what feels comfortable during the consultation. Some people enjoy firm pressure, while others need a lighter touch. You do not need to accept discomfort as part of a luxury treatment.
This part may suit you especially well after a day of walking around Chiang Mai. The Old City is easy to explore on foot, and a focused foot treatment can feel like a sensible break before the longer oil massage.
Still, do not assume that every therapist will use exactly the same pressure or rhythm. Feedback about treatment quality has been uneven, with some appointments described as exceptional and others as only average. That does not make the package a poor choice, but it does mean that your therapist can make a real difference.

Aromatherapy oil massage in a private room
The second treatment is an aromatherapy oil massage. This is the more traditional relaxation portion of the package, and the private room gives you a quiet space away from the reception area.
The setting is one of Fah Lanna’s main strengths. The spa is described as peaceful, with attractive gardens where you can wait before treatment. Reception and café staff have also been praised for being friendly and patient when explaining the process.
The oil treatment is also where you should plan ahead. A few customers expected to shower after the massage because a shower was present in the room, but they were not invited to use it. If washing off the oil matters to you, ask about the shower before the treatment starts rather than assuming it is part of this package.
One important distinction: the bath is not included in this relaxation package. Bath access belongs to the separate Fah Lanna Royal Bath package. If you picture a soak as part of your two-hour booking, you will want to adjust that expectation or choose a different package.
The private format works well for couples and solo visitors
This is a private activity, meaning only your group takes part. That makes it a good fit if you want a calm appointment without sharing the treatment experience with strangers.
For couples, the private setup can make booking together easy, though it does not guarantee identical massage quality from both therapists. You can ask whether the treatments will be scheduled together and discuss any individual needs at the consultation.
Solo visitors also get the benefit of a more personal appointment. You can focus on your own comfort without worrying about keeping up with a group schedule. Since the spa session takes only about two hours, it fits neatly between other plans.
Children must be accompanied by an adult. Most people can participate, but specific health concerns should be discussed before treatment. The consultation is there for that purpose, and you should use it.
Snacks, gardens, and the little luxury touches

Snacks are included, which is a pleasant extra rather than the main reason to book. They give the appointment a small hospitality touch and may be welcome if you are fitting the spa between meals.
The gardens also matter. You are not simply walking into a bare massage room from the street. The setting is designed to help you slow down before treatment begins, and the garden area gives you somewhere pleasant to wait.
That said, the package is not a meal or a full wellness day. The included snacks should be treated as a light refreshment. If you are hungry, plan a proper meal before or after the appointment.
The spa also accepts credit card payment, which is useful if you do not want to carry much cash. Payment details can change, so confirm the current method when booking or at the spa.
Is $76.15 a fair price?
At $76.15 per person, this is firmly above the price of many basic Chiang Mai massage shops. You are paying for a more polished setting, a private room, trained staff, a consultation, two therapies, snacks, and the reputation of a multi-award-winning spa.
That can be good value if you want a special treat and prefer a controlled, comfortable setting. The two-hour format also gives you more than a quick foot massage while leaving the rest of the day open.
It is less convincing if your main goal is the lowest possible price. Chiang Mai has many cheaper places for massage, and the price difference can be substantial. You should also remember that the experience is not guaranteed to feel identical each time. One therapist may deliver a superb massage, while another may feel merely adequate.
The best way to judge the value is to ask what matters most to you. If atmosphere, privacy, service, and a smooth booking experience matter, the higher price may make sense. If technique at the lowest cost is your priority, a local massage shop may be a better match.
What the strongest treatment experiences have in common

The best feedback centers on the therapists and the calm atmosphere. Therapist Fha was singled out for excellent pressure and flow, with the massage described as deeply relaxing. Therapist Yok was praised for a shoulder, neck, and head massage, while Apple received credit for using the consultation information thoughtfully.
Those names are useful if they are available when you book, but you should not assume a particular therapist will be working on your date. You can ask whether a preferred therapist is available, though there is no promise of assignment.
Another strong point is the staff attitude. The reception and café teams have been described as friendly, patient, and willing to explain the process. That matters at a spa, especially if you are unfamiliar with Thai treatments or need help choosing between options.
The peaceful setting receives repeated praise as well. Fah Lanna feels designed for a break from the noise and movement of the Old City. You may find the environment more memorable than the snacks or the exact treatment sequence.
The main drawbacks to keep in mind
The biggest concern is inconsistency. Some appointments have been described as excellent, while others were only so-so. Massage is personal, but a premium price naturally creates higher expectations.
The second issue is the lack of bath access in this package. The presence of a shower or bathing facility in a treatment room does not mean it is included. Ask in advance if you want to rinse after the oil massage.
The third issue is timing. A two-hour appointment sounds generous, but arriving late can put the whole booking at risk. The spa asks you to arrive 15 minutes early, and I would follow that instruction closely.
Finally, this is not a fully transported excursion. You need to reach the Old City branch yourself, and the activity ends there. That is easy enough for many people, but it is worth planning around if you are staying outside central Chiang Mai.
Who will enjoy this spa package most
I would point this package toward:
- You want a polished spa experience rather than a basic massage shop.
- You like combining two treatments in one appointment.
- You are exploring Chiang Mai’s Old City and want a convenient break.
- You are booking privately as a solo visitor or couple.
- You have enough room in your budget for a premium massage.
- You want the rest of the day free after the appointment.
I would be more cautious if you are price-sensitive, need guaranteed therapist consistency, or expect a bath to be part of the treatment. In those cases, ask questions before paying or compare other spa packages.
Booking, cancellation, and arrival advice
Free cancellation is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled start time. Cancellations within 24 hours are not refunded, and changes made during that period are not accepted.
Confirmation usually arrives when you book. If you book within three days of the appointment, confirmation may take up to 48 hours and depends on availability.
Bring your mobile ticket and arrive 15 minutes early. Children need adult supervision, and most people can take part. If you have a medical concern or a strong pressure preference, write it on the consultation card and repeat it to the therapist.
Should you book Fah Lanna Spa?
Book it if you want a calm, private, two-hour break in Chiang Mai with foot reflexology and aromatherapy oil massage in a refined setting. The location, garden atmosphere, helpful staff, snacks, and short time commitment make it easy to fit into a sightseeing day.
Go in with realistic expectations. This is not the cheapest massage in town, the Royal Bath is not included, and therapist quality may vary. For a special spa treat where comfort and setting matter as much as price, it is a sensible choice. If you mainly want the best bargain, compare local massage shops before committing.
