Tomoko Japanese Spa

Excellent private spa in Los Angeles. Highly recommended if you want a taste of Japan or you're for a romantic experience.

Is it a serene escape from the hustle and bustle? Sure. But at over $800 for a couple massage, the value just isn’t there. The spa offers some nice touches — they greet you with tea in the lobby, have you change into slippers, and the ambiance is relaxing and tranquil. The lobby is dimly lit and peaceful, setting the right mood. The massage itself was pleasant, and they include a foot soak before the treatment and another round of tea afterward. That said, the experience felt rushed. We weren’t able to recover from the massage session properly because we were asked to leave the room shortly after the massage — maybe 10–15 minutes. Unlike other day spas where you can linger and unwind, this felt more transactional than relaxing. Overall, the massage was fine but far from the best I’ve had, and definitely not worth the price tag. Nice setting, but for the cost, I expected something far more special. I may consider coming back to buy-up and use the room and tub for an extra hour and $300, but we'll see. Not quite sure if I missed something altogether but I was a bit underwhelmed by the entire experience.

A restorative experience at Tomoko! Had an enjoyable couples massage. The spa lacks amenities like a sauna, water treatments, etc. but still has a calming atmosphere that feels like a far away destination. The treatment room was serene and spacious. What I liked was built in time before and after the service to relax in the treatment room. It was nice to not feel rushed into leaving. Our massages were very good (and I’m picky. I prefer a chiro massage over most day spas. I want someone to really work on me and not just rub lotion on my back). My therapist understood the assignment and got after it. The tea service was a nice end to the experience. The customer service was lovely. I already booked my next appointment!

Amazing. It was a rainy day in LA and this was a wonderful escape from it all. Upon entering I was provided slippers and escorted to the calming waiting area. I chose the Tomoko massage which began with a private soothing foot wash and massage in my room with some warm tea. The massage therapist was absolutely perfect with the amount of pressure and stretching. I even dozed off mid massage because it was so soothing. Afterwards they have an in room shower where you can wash up before leaving. Upon leaving the private room you’re welcomed to a chair with your shoes set up, small departing gifts and the bill discreetly set for gratuity. I will definitely return for another soothing experience on my next visit.

No wonder this spa has an incredibly rating! It’s truly one of the unique and relaxing spa experiences I’ve had in LA! I did a 90 min prenatal massage and I could not be happier with the treatment. From the minute I arrived I was completely comfortable, the slippers, the robe, the private room, the delicious tea and the thoughtful details! It’s on the pricier side but clearly for a reason! Highly recommend

What a amazing place to spend time with our partner! We book the couples retreat! Me and my wife had a amazing anniversary date here! Totally worth it the price tag! Super recommend, its a lifetime experience!

Thought to myself that I should enjoy a spa and decided that this was a great place to choose. I was not disappointed. This place was wonderful. The environment was really relaxing. The service was amazing. Everyone was nice. Storage available to put your stuff. Showers available to wash off after. There was a parking lot across the street that was supposed to accommodate the time spent at the spa, but the time limit seemed to pass by really quick, so expect to pay for parking. Only downside is the place is very pricey. Hard pressed to keep coming unless I became filthy rich.
