Best Spas in Kirkland

"This spa in South Lake Union is based on the tradition of Russian banyas, Finnish saunas and the like. Entry to the spa gives guests use of the Parilka (a sauna made of concrete and brick for penetrating heat), a Turkish steam room, a saltwater tepid pool (kept at 87 degrees), a cold plunge pool, a hot pool (kept at 104 degrees) and a tea lounge and nap room. For an additional fee, book a massage, body treatment or facial—or one of the packages available."

"This spa is well known and loved by Seattleites so you know we had to include it. Banya 5 is pretty much the place to head if you’re in need of a relaxing day, scrub, or serious bodywork massage. But keep in mind they are only doing massages at this time."

"Ancient Asian healing rituals blend harmoniously with modern-day spa luxuries and PNW vibes at Bellevue’s swanky Yuan Spa. In addition to first-rate body treatments, highlights of the Yuan Spa experience include a mood-lit steam sauna and complimentary refrigerated cold towels, eye-relaxing cucumber slices and exfoliating salt-scrub bars. Forty-five bucks gets you a day’s access to everything but personalized treatments from the spa’s trained professionals."

"Come on over to the Eastside for some luxurious pampering in an unexpected space. Tucked into a Bellevue megatower, this newish, 8,000-square-foot spa combines swank with traditional, all the while honoring owner Z Zhang's Chinese roots. Think pedicures, body scrubs, massage treatments and a communal bathing area."

"And finally, we have to cap the list with Yuan Spa which offers your classic spa services. But they have a focus on Eastern Hollistic practices so you can also have services like cupping. So if you’re looking to try something new be sure to check out Yuan Spa."

"Year after year, this waterfront Seattle spa receives positive critical reviews and appears on lists of the city’s best spas. Ananya is praised for the quality and variety of its massages facials and other skin care treatment offerings. Seattle A-List Best of 2017’s Day Spa winner, Ananya Spa is located just south of Olympic Sculpture Park."

"This is where we get into the spas that focus on massages and treatments more than communal stuff. Ananya Spa has a wide variety of massages available, ranging from hot stone to Swedish to Thai. There’s also body wraps, facials and waxing too."

"Not to mention they also offer couples packages if you want to have a relaxing day with your SO. And they also run some pretty great specials so be sure to check them out. Where: 2810 Elliott Ave"

"With the capacity to pamper just 14 patrons at a time, this all-female day spa near Seattle University is on the small side. But in addition to a massage room, HotHouse is home to a dry sauna, steam room, cold plunge shower and hot tub. The highly-rated spa is known for its friendly staff and affordable prices, with entry costing just 8."

"Another female only spot, Hothouse has some of the best rates in the city, with their spa use only costing $18. They’ve got all the amenities too- hot tub, steam room, sauna, and the good old cold plunge. Want to take things a step further?"

"A female only spa (sorry fellas), Ladywell’s focuses on hydrotherapy’s healing powers. They have 3 pools- a whirlpool, a soaking pool, and a plunge pool. They also have a dry cedar sauna, a steam bath and an infrared pink salt sauna with sand floors."

"Located in Kirkland’s luxurious waterfront Woodmark Hotel, Still Spa is an Eastside gem. The beautifully-designed health and beauty spa provides an atmosphere that is relaxing in its own right. Add Still Spa’s customizable high-end treatments and friendly, knowledgeable staff, and you’ve got the recipe for a seriously rejuvenating staycation."

"Head to this marina resort across Lake Washington from Seattle for fresh air and pampering. Spa treatments include the Mount Rainier stone revival massage, head-to-toe waxing and creative facials. Guest rooms are tranquil, with understated decor, plush beds and a dreamy pillow menu with options for resting your head."

"Between Bellevue and Kirkland, east of the Seattle metro area, Woodmark Hotel and Still Spa lets you bypass city grit for a more refined retreat. Each guest room has muted tones, plush robes and a spacious bathroom. Wander or bike one of the trails next to Lake Washington, or take a kayak to Yarrow Point."

"Penelope The Beauty Bar is a gorgeous boutique spa inside the Fairmont downtown Seattle which has the newest gadgets like these hot tubs that are inflatable. I must start with that they have the best service in the whole city. I scheduled my mom and I appointments to celebrate her birthday and somehow I totally goofed and ended up showing up on the wrong day."

"A post shared by PENELOPE + The Beauty Bar (@penelopeandthebeautybar). And if you want to kick up your spa experience a notch you can head over to Penelope and The Beauty Bar inside the Fairmont hotel. This spa is known for its facials and use of super high-quality products."

"Penelope offers everything you’d expect from a spa at the Fairmont Olympic and more. Choose from a menu of body wraps, skin scrubs, a selection of massages and specialty skincare services. The spa’s full range of services also includes hair styling and makeup application."

"UMMELINA takes downtown spa goers on an exotic, global adventure, with treatments that range from the Desert Water Foot Ritual to the Herbal Sea Salt Glow. The welcoming venue has created several natural environments that transport patrons "to distant lands, where for centuries indigenous people listened to the earth and gleaned its riches." In downtown Seattle, guests are accompanied by "guides who are accomplished, sure footed and well studied." These journeys utilize natural salts, muds, oils and herbs thoughtfully selected from all over the globe. Although the venue is ideal for individual patrons, it's also perfect for large groups (like bachelorette parties), thanks to its communal treatment room and its tea lounge."

"If the cure to your ails lies in an African foot soak, Thai yoga massage or meditative tea spa, check out Ummelina. The downtown Seattle spa’s treatment menu features healing practices from around the globe, packaged into regional and element-themed “journeys” for those committing a day to the spa. If you live in AMLI’s new Denny Triangle apartments, your international day spa journey is just a 10-minute walk away."

"Probably the most esoteric spot on this list, Ummelina has really doubled down on the whole ‘ancient rituals’ approach. We’re cool with it because the majority of the services offered are guaranteed to blow you away. We’re not so sure about spending $70 to be able to wash ourselves, though."

"The menu at this popular Ballard restaurant is minimal and lighter than one might see at more traditional Italian joints, but still features standouts such as the agnolotti with sweet corn, mascarpone, and sunflower shoots, and a decadent saffron spaghetti bolognese with pork and veal. There’s also an outdoor deck and expanded sidewalk seating. View this post on Instagram"

"We love their saffron spaghetti bolognese, bucatini alla carbonara, crab triangoli, pan seared pork belly, and antipasti board. Location: 5341 Ballard Avenue NW, SeattlePhone: 206-342-1530Facebook | Instagram"

"San Fermo is offering cook-at-home meal kits that serve two people every Saturday from noon to 4 p.m. for curbside pick-up. Additionally, you can add batched cocktails, antipasti, ..."

"The "Netflix and chill" special—wine, flatbread, cheese boards, delivered to your door—is still going strong at this neighborly bar across from Cal Anderson. Not to mention a ton of other drink-and-snack kits, sandwiches, and flatbreads."

"After 16 years of charming regulars with both his shy grace and daily fresh sheet, Ryuichi Nakano sold his Tangletown sushi destination to a new owner, Kyu Bum Han. His presence may be irreplaceable, but the rest of Kisaku is mostly (and mercifully) unchanged, from the tablecloths to the mix of seasonal specialties alongside staple maki and nigiri at exceedingly reasonable prices. The counter omakase is still the way to go."

"It’s a solid neighborhood sushi place that you can actually go regularly and they’ll remember your name. “Kisaku” literally means frank and friendly in Japanese. Kisaku also serves one of the best locally sourced fish."

"A Wallingford neighborhood hole-in-the-wall that has a strong citywide following for serving some of the best sushi in Seattle, Kisaku is unassuming but packs a serious punch of sa..."

"This gem is certainly Seattle’s oldest sushi bar and also probably Seattle’s oldest continually operating restaurant. It opened in 1904 which is pretty cool that it’s still around today. And that’s because they’ve been serving up mean sushi this whole time."

"For an unforgettable dining experience make a reservation for one of Maneki's tatami mat dining rooms (paper and wood lattice private chambers with seating on the floor) and feast on a meal of traditional... Top ChoiceTacos in The CD, Madrona & Madison Park"

"You'll recognize Maneki by its collection of beckoning cats. It's been a hub of Seattle's Japanese community since 1904. It may have been the first place in Seattle to serve sushi and the well worn dining and tatami rooms fill up every night."

"This izakaya in Wallingford is a perfect place for a group to enjoy drinks and share small plates. Dishes include stone-grilled enoki mushrooms, grilled mackerel, grilled tuna collar, a variety of yakitori, fried chicken cartilage, kushikatsu (fried tonkatsu on a stick), and even French fries with wasabi mayonnaise. And, per Japanese custom, to fill the stomach at the end of the meal, diners should order delicious miso-glazed grilled onigiri (rice balls)."

"Issian is lively, fun Izakaya, pub style Japanese restaurant offering everything for everybody. Izakaya style is popular in Japan for its good food at affordable price, and has become popular in the United States last decade or so. So bring a group of friends and try something new!"

"From Business: 50 North, a University District gathering place featuring upscale American food, is the sister restaurant to the historic Hardware Store Restaurant on Vashon."
