The Thaiger Names Chandee the Number 1 Head Spa in Bangkok

On 7 July 2026, The Thaiger, Thailand’s largest English-language news portal, published its guide to the five best head spas in Bangkok and placed Chandee at number 1. The ranking recognised Chandee as the only head spa in the city that combines a head spa, a full body massage, and a facial in a single visit.

We did not expect to open with a quote, but this one is theirs, not ours: “If you book one head spa in Bangkok, make it this one.”

What The Thaiger looked at

This was not a paid ranking of five friendly names. The Thaiger reviewed the head spa venues that matter in Bangkok right now, including specialists we genuinely respect: Siesta for Thai-technique scalp care, Head Onsen for the Japanese diagnostic approach, The House of Pridi by Loft Thai for luxury, and Treasure Spa for accessibility. They weighed the quality of the ritual, the therapists, the setting, value, and what guests say in independent reviews on Google and TripAdvisor.

That company makes the result mean something. Each of those venues does one thing very well. The reason Chandee came first is the thing none of them offer.

Why Chandee came first

The article puts it plainly: every other head spa in Bangkok stops at the scalp. Chandee is the one place where the head spa, a full body massage, and a facial happen in one visit, in one room, in one unhurried stretch of the afternoon.

The Thaiger’s writers experienced our signature Ring of Water, the 17-step Vietnamese ritual at the heart of everything we do. Warm water arcs over the scalp beneath a ceiling of tiny points of light that shimmer and fade, and most guests are asleep before the seventeen steps are done. They also noted what surrounds the ritual: the ASMR water sounds, organic Yves Rocher products, experienced Thai female therapists, and private rooms for one or two at our Sukhumvit 39 branch.

They highlighted the Master Course as the treatment they would book. Three hours that open with a full body massage of your choice, move into a Gua Sha facial, and close with the head spa. For a whole afternoon, the Half-Day Retreat adds a golden body scrub. And for a first visit, the 90 minute Head Spa Massage remains the cleanest introduction.

The numbers behind the ranking

We have always preferred verifiable facts to superlatives, and the article leaned on exactly those:

  • Close to 500 five-star reviews across both branches, at a 4.9 average
  • Guests from more than 30 countries
  • Open daily until 11pm at both branches, later than any comparable venue in Bangkok
  • Two locations: Silom, near BTS Chong Nonsi, and Sukhumvit 39, near BTS Phrom Phong

A thank you, from a small family business

Chandee is run by two founders, and the ranking belongs to the people who deliver the ritual every day: our therapists, trainers, and front teams at Silom and Sukhumvit 39. They perform the same seventeen steps with the same care whether it is a guest’s first visit or their fortieth. This week, an independent editorial team lay down under the starlit ceiling and noticed.

Thank you to every guest who has left a review, told a friend, or fallen asleep somewhere around step nine. You wrote this ranking before The Thaiger did.

Frequently asked questions

What makes Chandee different from the other head spas listed? Chandee is the only venue on the list, and in Bangkok, where a head spa, a full body massage, and a facial happen in one visit. The other venues focus on the scalp alone.

What is the Ring of Water? The Ring of Water is Chandee’s signature 17-step Vietnamese head spa ritual: deep cleansing, warm water poured in slow arcs over the scalp, pressure point massage, and a full neck and shoulder massage, performed beneath a starlit ceiling with ASMR water sounds.

Do I need to book ahead? Yes, especially evenings and weekends. Silom is usually booked one to two days in advance. Sukhumvit 39 is the better option for same-day availability. Book online, or via WhatsApp or LINE.

Where are the two Chandee branches? Silom: 60 Naradhiwas Rajanagarindra Road, near BTS Chong Nonsi and King Power Mahanakhon. Sukhumvit 39: 6/7-8 Soi Phrom Si 1, near BTS Phrom Phong and EmQuartier. Both open daily, 10:00 to 23:00.
