What travellers are saying
- carolynBirmingham, UK1 contributionVisiting for a week, we had booked our session online before the trip. Dorie our yoga instructor, had emailed directions to the meeting point the day before.
The yoga experience in the park was fabulous and the setting unbeatable in my opinion. The weather was warm, sunny and still, so just perfect. I kept looking up at the skyline/back drop throughout the class just thinking,‘ how lucky am I!😊
Dorie was friendly and professional. She briefly checked our experience levels across the group( there were only 6 of us) and gave us an excellent yoga practice with options of varying the different positions to suit your ability.
My friend and I practice yoga back home twice a week but consider ourselves to be at a beginners level. It certainly helps if you have some knowledge of yoga but for this session it wasn’t essential,as long as you are relatively fit and healthy and know your own body.
Thanks Dorie, we really enjoyed every moment and will certainly book again if ever back visiting NY😊Written 1 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TCaveRochester, NY27 contributionsI had them do everything. I didn’t care about the cost as I needed some serious attention. I was taken back quickly, the scents and ambience was really relaxing and the temperature was warm without being too hot. It’s cold outside so this too was a welcome retreat. Worked for an hour on me and I couldn’t be happier. Now I’m ready for some Christmas shopping.Written 22 December 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- lhtravelinNew York City, NY7 contributionsSuch a great experience. Had a 2 1/2 massage. Such a great feeling afterward. It's a bit of a workout, so be prepared, but it will fix whatever is going on and give you that fresh start you're looking for. Feeling great! A fresh start!!!Written 13 August 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Elaine SRiverdale, NY9 contributionsOnce again I was truly touched to the core of my being while spending time at The Well ! I was having an early dinner, and so excited to order one of my favorite Fall dishes, the Nine Curry Vegetables with a side of fried caulirice ! Kimmel took my order immediately and while waiting for it, the ladies working together diligently at the next table offered to share their delicious dip and chips with me that was especially prepared by chef Lara for a private event that day ! Suddenly like magic, chef Lara appeared at my table and I was able to compliment her and she described in detail how she prepared this divine ambrosia. While eating my meal, a server quietly approached my table and presented me with a gift of this extraordinary dip, all packed and ready to go ! Sending gratitude to everyone at The Well for all that you are and all that you do for me and our world !Written 17 November 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- PatriamassageRincon, Puerto Rico21 contributionsThis is my second time in Nyc from Puerto Rico for the restorative yoga training. Aside from the cold outside, the people I meet, the quality of teachers and their assistance, the organization and diversity of classes is a must.Written 31 January 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Greg G4 contributionsAfter more than 22 hours of travel from Australia to NYC, what did I need? Pilates of course! And I was so lucky to have Balanced Pilates NYC 5 minutes walk from where we are staying! Easy to book on line with email reminder for each session. Lovely and knowledgeable instructors, all who accepted my Aussie sense of humour. Mollie worked me hard but she was also very considerate of my body's minor 'issues'. And like all pilates instructors, she LOVES her job, particularly when her clients have beads of sweat running off their body.
So if you are in NYC check them out on-line and meet these fabulous pilates experts.

Everything about this place is fantastic!

- Dom MMontreal, Canada9 contributionsEpic experience. Staying in an 1000 year old fortress atop a Tuscan hill while practicing yoga twice a day and eating the freshest foods right from their Tuscan gardens. Irresistible dishes prepared by NYC chef Ed Carew and daily yoga practices by Paula Tursi. Paula's in depth knowledge of body mechanics and insight really helped my yoga practice . My wife and I developed a deeper awareness of the body and movement. She is truly my favorite teacher..too bad I don't live in NYCWritten 10 December 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Heidy MarieLos Angeles, CA425 contributionsI had a 90 min massage with Yasue and she is definitely an amazing masseuse. She is very skilled and knowledgeable and I would highly recommend her. I visit many spas and get a massage monthly as I travel often for work. This is the first time I have visited this spa but have stayed in the hotel several times. Now for the spa, the check-in process was easy and the ladies were friendly. The locker area is small but clean with a blow dryer, spray deodorant,hair spray, razors and mouthwash.Of course the usual, soap,shampoo,conditioner and body lotion can be found. There is one shower,one restroom and one steam/shower room. The steam was never hot but it was very warm. I took a steam shower and it did help to heat up the room a bit more to my liking. The indoor pool is open to kids of all ages so there is a chance that it won’t be very relaxing if there are several kids screaming and playing. The water temperature is on the cool side and I do prefer more of a warmer pool when I relax. A nice gentleman sits at the desk next to the pool and not sure of his duty but he was friendly. There is fruit infused water, bagged nuts and apricots for a snack if you would like. The spa rooms are nice and relaxing and located downstairs away from the gym and any noise. You really feel like you are away from it all with the Japanese style decor. I would say this is a very expensive spa that needs a bit of improvements but overall, I would go again if I am staying at the Greenwich Hotel again. Enjoy!Written 15 February 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Lisa S FNew York City, NY26 contributionsThis is a remarkable, healing place: to let go of stress, feel your inner goodness and recover! Also very relaxing! Master Arthur is a fantastic teacher and we talk about what we thought about the experience at the end of each class. I cannot recommend it highly enough.Written 2 September 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Agua To Face ItSacramento, CA2 contributionsThis is one of the few YOga institutes that recognizes by having the BROWN bodies of the founders of yoga in the west. Satchidananda, Sivinanda, being 2 of them.
This is CLEAR YOU HAVE to be ontime, so aim for early early arrival....It's the policy and I agree NEEDS TO BE LISTED on site, if not already there.
2. For teacher training they accept the voucher from Unemployment Insurance NY that gives the formerly employed, up to (can't recall) 2000 dollars in voucher.
3. You can go for things online as well as in person and learn the spiritual reasons for all these poses and heavy physical transformation.Written 10 September 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I am a relatively new client and I have had such a good experience with everyone from the front desk to the instructors. The instructors are experienced, knowledgeable, and give great private sessions. I am so glad I did some research and found this studio! It is so clean and zen-like.Written 12 November 2014This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jack DNew York City, NY8 contributionsI cannot wait for the BikeNYoga classes to begin again this summer. A great combo of aerobic and anaerobic excercises. I always prefer to have my yoga in open because it is harder to focus and takes more experience to get to that meditative state of mind. I think it will be a bit harder for novice to get used to the distractions in Central Park but for intermediate level it is a great practice. The instructors were very nice and the bike ride is a good way to put you in that state of mind. Definitely looking forward to this summer and the clasesWritten 11 May 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- lej1 contributionGreat class. Inspiring even. But it is pity that the room was filled with this strong chemical smell from a disinfectant they used to clean all those mats which is especially bad since the room was not ventilated. I guess it is inevitable to maintain the temperature....Written 13 February 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
