		<description>Bonjour M. Friedman,

Thank you so much for your comments! In fact, you are mentioning some of our most precious treasures: the fantastic forest that surrounds Spa Eastman and the amazing people of our teams. We are proud (and I am touched) that Spa Eastman really became your &quot;home away from home&quot;.

Until your next visit... take care!

		<description>Throughout my travels, I have been to many spas around the world.  My visits to Eastman always felt like home away from home.  The place is meticulously managed and the people who serve are the kindest I have ever met.  The treatments are highly professional and Ms. Dubuc, who is the president of the Spa, always keeps up to date with various innovations.  The forest offers serenity and it is meticulously maintained.  I had only wonderful experiences in Spa Eastman, which I will recommend whole-heartedly to people who are looking for a spa in Canada.

		<description>I recently returned to Spa Eastman for a 2 night stay. I have been many times (3 times a year) for 15 years and each time is still magical. It is like no other place. The setting is beautiful countryside , but it is only 5 minutes from the highway. The food is gourmet and varied. I have been able to try many new foods at the buffet. Everything is very fresh. The staff is  very professional and attentive. Everything is spotless. My French is very limited, but the staff is able to speak English to make me feel comfortable if I am alone or if someone has accompanied me.
If you have never been to Spa Eastman, go. You will not regret it.</description>

		<description>I love Spa Eastman and recommend it to all my friends. The people, the landscape, the food, and the accommodations are all wonderful!

The sustainable and environmentally-conscious practices are also appreciated.

I will be back for sure.</description>

		<description>Found it great.  Was very pleasantly surprised by the amazing and varied food.  Staff very warm and open.  We actually had brought some food with us becasue we were unsure of the quality of food after refering to internet site.  Food was so amazing that we have changed our diet as a result.  I am a carnivore, but I specially appreciated being introduced to protiens in algae-that was actually edible (ha ha!!).  Course on health was very scientific given by Ilona. Woill return and take a few less treatments.  Yahoo...I can bring my dog too!</description>

		<description>Dear Amanda,

Thank you so much for taking time to write about your experience. You are right: this room is a bit noisy and it is the smallest room of Spa Eastman Montreal facilities. We have tried to provide head sets to our customers, in order to enjoy music instead of surrounding sounds, but so far, clientele did not want it. We will try to reajust.

I hope we will have a chance to welcome you again at Spa Eastman Montréal. Our massage room are very spacious and silent, and our new panoramic lounge is a great way to enjoy our downtown situation, away from the hustle &amp; bustle...

Thanks again for your comment.

		<description>Hello,

I was at Spa Eastman Montreal for the first time this past weekend for what was supposed to be the salt body exfoliation; I was mistakenly booked for the scrub, wrap and bath treatment but after a look of shock at the bill the receptionist was very kind and corrected the billing. I was very appreciative that i did not have to argue or even insist, and she even insisted there was a glove that came with the treatment that i could take home and went out of her way to find it! I was really impressed with the service and the staff! I can&#039;t rave enough about how great they were!

Unfortunately the room wasn&#039;t as impressive. The facilities were very clean, nicely decorated, calming and everything was well maintained but the room the scrub was done in was very small, just big enough for a sink and a bed. I am 5&#039;11&quot; and my feet were hanging off the end a little (nothing uncomfortable) but the aestetician could not move around the sink (where she prepped everything) without bumping them. It was a constant reminder of the smallness of the room and i found it to be less than relaxing.  Also during the 30min relaxation with the wrap all i could hear was the loud rushing water and jets from what i can only assume was a bathtub in the room next to mine. It was loud enough to drown out the soothing music that was in the room.

This was my second time at a spa ever and although overall i did enjoy the scrub and my skin felt great after, i would not be keen on returning to Spa Eastman for that sort of treatment because of the room. I understand that it is downtown Montreal and space is an issue but i felt that it took away from relaxing during the treatment. I really liked the staff and the service and this was not a completely negative experience by far, and i would definitely return to Spa Eastman but not for this sort of treatment.</description>
