Best MP near Downtown or via subway

[smeaty3]

I'm going to be staying downtown hotel near bloor & yonge st. and wanted to see if you massageplanet.netites can tell me which massage parlours would be the best choice and also easy to get to from there.

I will not have a rental car and will travel by taking the subway. I rather stay away from trips requiring taxi since the cost can add up and would rather save it for the actual sessions. I just don't want to travel for more than 30 minutes on the subway. I'm looking for MPs with the best looking girls preferrably better mileage. Thanks.

Best downtown spa is probably health international (HI) in terms of looks but its a bit pricey. Check out their website and reviews.

Combowa if you are into asians.... I've never been so I can't speak on their attractiveness.

As for subway, you can take the subway to yorkdale mall amd walk to Body and Soul ( B & S). Check out their website and reviews.

Unfortunately the top spas HFH and SRM (IMO) are harder to get to via TTC.

I will say this though at B & S you will spend $140 (max for a 60 min BS) and nearly double at the top spas. So in terms of ease of access for you and number of visits B & S is the best choice. But for a real treat/fantasy check out HFH or SRM. I'd recommend HFH.

B & S is to HFH what Toyota is to Lexus.

Platinum ...two stops beyond Yorkdale, then a very quick ride on the Sheppard West bus (to the stop just beyond the railway bridge). Often have better selection than B&S , but there are also a few good ones at B& S as well.

Plush Spa is a fairly short walk S from the Dundas West station.

If I wanted / needed to take TTC to get to HFH, does anyone know how I'd do it (I'm sure it would take quite a while to get there, but the info would still be useful...)? Thanks in advance.

2 Dundonald, which is about three blocks south of Yonge and Bloor right off of Yonge. High mileage, especially for repeat offenders

Combawa as noted, and see YoYo the hot little Asian Firecracker. Again, a 10 minute walk from Yonge and Bloor (Gerrard and Bay). Always been very high mileage for me.

Waving cash around always helps mileage LOL

Good luck. Better to get an incall--plenty in that immediate area.

The simpliest route to get to HFH, or the closest by TTC, would be to:

1) take the subway to Finch station.
2) go upstairs to the bus platform and take the 60 bus.
3) DO NOT TAKE 60C !!! as that turns early goes to York University.
4) Get off at Pine Valley, ask the driver and he will help you out.

This is the farthest that the TTC will take you. Now you have two options:

A) Walk north on Pine Valley for at least 20 minutes.
B) Hail down a cab. I do see many travel along Steeles you just have to hail one down.

Hopefully that helps.

depending what you want... EE or oriental.... there is a EE place right across from HoL Bloor and a oriental place a few doors east of that. Simply walk out East exit of Lansdowne station, down to bloor and your there in less than a minute.
That being said I don't anything about these two spas and would reccomend Gemini for its amazing women like Katie, Emily and Lauren.

 

[timmy7]

Emily does not work at Gemini, only at Lexa and Star.

And on to other matters ...

Due to several PMs recd today I need to add more info.

More info on the TTC route:

1) How long does it take from Finch to Steeles and Pine Valley?

It takes approx. 30-40min from Finch to Pine Valley depending on time of day, rush hour is the worst but also has the most frequent service.

2) What side is north ?

The bus lets you off on the north side and you have to walk north, don't cross the street you are on the right side.

3) Is there a bus stop that takes me back to Finch station ?

If you are coming back there is a TTC stop across the street from were he originally let you off.

4) Do I catch a cab on Steeles or Pine Valley ?

The bus lets you off on Steeles at Pine Valley. The cab are usually running along Steeles just have to wave one down or call one from your cell.

5) I am coming from the north is there a GO bus route?

I do not know the GO bus route. Sorry.

Suggestions:

Always make an appointment at HFH before you head down.

Leave more than enough time to get down there. If you are at Finch 60 minutes before your appt you are cutting it very close and will probably be late.

Once again the 60C bus takes you to York University.

Ask the bus driver to tell you when Pine Valley comes up.

If you have gone to Islington you have gone too far. On your trip you should only encounter ONE OVERPASS and that is Hwy 400. If you go under another overpass that is the CN rail which means you just past your stop and the next stop is Islington. It is a good 5-10 walk back.

Keep a cell phone handy to call a cab and keep the number of well known cab companies (Royal, Diamond, etc.) in your phone book. Remember even cab companies may take 15 minutes to get to you.

It is approx. a 5 minute drive north to HFH and a good 20 minutes at a brisk walk. Even getting a cab for that short ride is not worthwhile so if they ask you for a destination if you are calling by cell phone LIE TO THEM and tell them Newmarket and then change your story after you are sitting in the cab and tell them that a friend will be taking you and ask them to drop you off at the intersection of HFH, Strada and Pine Valley, instead.

Re: Transit to MP's, SC's etc

1) Go to any subway station and get a free TTC map. It also shows GO routes and regional transit routes out into the hinterlands.

2) For schedules (because service in the suburbs tends to fucus on rush hour) phone the transit company info numbers. They're all listed on the map. They'll tell you what routes are best if you tell them where you're aiming. My own pref for HFH is the #77 from Finch subway along old Hiway7 all the way to Bramalea Centre; maybe a shorter walk to HFH, and similar to WAGG, Pro, Lotus, and connection at Bramalea to CB.

3) Romeo's new Google maps will help, Google Romeo toronto exotic massage, (if you need a live link, you shouldn't be going out alone, ditto if you don't know where north is). Unfortunately GMaps great driving directions feature only works from its main window. You'll have to cut and paste from Romeo's.

4)Oh, here. But get your own compass:

"Combawa" ? Where is this place? I live very close-by that intersection, and would be up for something new within walking distance...

 

[Emmy]

Here. How's the P1800 holding up?

 

[groovybug]

as previously mentioned ...

Gemini @ PAPE STATION/Danforth
Plush @ DUNDAS STATION/Bloor (approx)
Combawa @ Bay/Gerrard

There are lots on Yonge south of Bloor like ...
7 Hayden
Bloor Spa

I think Health International @ Bay/Adelaide (is it still there) is one of the better ones downtown.

1. Thanks. 2. It's ok, actually, considering it's around 40-odd years old now!!

 

[London lady!]

I went to gemini's website but it does not have any pics? Anyone know where I can check out some pic of attendents from gemini? Also, I found
out that SRM is very close to the airport. How long is the ride from downtown to the airport about? I might be able to get those shuttle service for about $15 each way and then take a short cab ride to check out SRM.
What do you guys think? Is SRM worth it or am I better off just checking out the closer locations like B&S or Gemini? Thanks for all the post.

Then catch the 37D Islington North at Pine Valley, it turns along strada. It may only run during rush hour though I'm not sure.

 

[Doodlebugjim]

If memory serves, which it may well not, I always took the YRT HFH bus. I think it's 77, but just ask the driver when you get on at Finch to let ya know which bus's go to HFH. Service can be infrequent, but YRT goes along hwy 7 to Pinevalley. 5 minute walk south. First left.

 

[cringe dragon]

yeah I think health international is a good bet if your in the downtown core .
