How is the massage therapy at the Dolphin?

[Demosthenes]

I made a ressie at the Dolphin for an hour massage, but I've found very little information about it anywhere. I'm wondering if I should switch my massage to the GF or DI which both get good reviews from most travel books and many people I've communicated with. Has anyone visited the massage therapy rooms @ the Dolphin, and if so, how was it?

DD and I are getting a massage at the GF but we are staying at the Dolphin. I would be very interested to hear if anyone knows anything about massages at the Dolphin too!

I had a massage at the Swan and dbf had his at the Dolphin about a year ago. It was just ok. The therapist was fine. There is just no spa to speak of. At the Swan it was a small room off the gym. When you got there, they gave you a robe to change into, but then you were expected to wait outside the room in the workout room. It was a little embarrasing. If you just want to fit in a quick massage this will work. If you're looking for the full experience, I'd go with DI spa. I was just there this weekend and it was heavenly. Until the rehab is done there, they offer cab vouchers, so it's really easy to get back and forth.

A little funny story to go along with this. My appointment was orginally with the Dolphin and dbf's was with the Swan. Well, he was whining that it was cold out (it was New Year's) and he didn't want to leave the hotel (we were staying at the Dolphin). So we switched appointments. Well, my massage therapist ended up being this cute, little asian woman and his was this really big ex-marine guy. LOL

I had a great massage at the Dolphin in August. As good as any I received at the GF spa. It's in the fitness center, and it's certainly not as luxurious as the spas, but the therapist was good and it was extremely convenient to get the massage there as I was staying there.
