URoot Spa, Acroris Mont Kiara (FunNow)

Had been wanting to try out an Urban Retreat spa group property for awhile, but just never got to it lah.
Made an appointment to try the Relaxing Sleep massage (60 or 80 minutes) at URoot at Arcoris Mont Kiara on the FunNow app cos got promo code (my referral code: XG7UP8G) and Sunday was the last day to use it. Figured why not cos it was a weekend.  

Was contacted over WhatsApp the next morning that the slot I wanted was fully booked and the only one left was gonna be at 7.30 p.m.. Ok then. 

Didn't really have dinner per se (had fruit and leftover cake) before making my way over to Mont Kiara. Because I was early for the appointment (we started way before 7.30 p.m.), at least the staff get to knock off earlier cos (I'm guessing) I was the last appointment of the day.

First thing that comes to mind about the place is that it's erm, cosy. Not all the staff there were familiar with the app (cos they have to key in my redemption code on their end), but worked out okay lah - I got a massage, they got their money. 


Was lead to a room in the back - it was minimally furnished in a good way. 

Hadn't realised that there was a heating pad on the massage table until I saw the sign afterwards - I thought the whole bed was heated? Perhaps I should've asked if it was adjustable because it got a little too warm for me personally, on top of this heat wave of late.

The massage itself was pretty relaxing for all intents and purposes, and I'm saying this as someone who's ticklish and doesn't have a high pain tolerance for deep tissue massage moves. Do yourself a favour, spend the extra scratch and go for the 80 minutes. 



Didn't take them up on the charger and hair brush loan,
but dunno if they would in these times

Prices are not exactly cheap, but kinda worth it. Also wouldn't mind going back (or checking out other properties) with the right time and opportunity? 

NB.
  • Dunno what's up with the UEM buildings in the area in that their parking lots is not for bigger sedan to navigate one. 
  • Probably should've parked at 163 Retail next door and walked, cos I ended up driving all the way down to LG5 (from LG1) to pay parking before I could leave. Parking mahal lagi (RM2 an hour). 
  • Driving to Mont Kiara is kinda unnerving for me because one wrong move and you can end up on the Penchala Link, paying toll AND no way to u-turn back for quite some time. 
  • FunNow is more like FunNow? or FunMaybe because you might get asked to reschedule your requested appointments, so ymmv.
