Been on the lookout for a reliable nail studio in the city for years due to my lack in trust after horrible experiences in different places (getting my nails ripped off by a practitioner, bleeding, etc.). This place is the best and has been the most consistent for me. You can book an appointment or just walk in (they always manage to squeeze me in even if they are busy). Very clean, hygienic studio and tools are cleaned thoroughly. I have sensitive and thin nails and they're never really rough with them and always take their time. The prices are great. This is my go-to for all manis and pedis, plus the girls are all so sweet! Read Less

Delighted!Made an appointment beforehand, and was charged the amount I was told I would be over the phone. I had a mani + pedi and the ladies working on me did a nice job. They were friendly and very gentle.In the end I ended up getting exactly what I wanted and will be back. Read Less

Came here on a weekday after making an appointment the day before. It wasn't very busy. The lady that helped me with my Shellac manicure was very detail oriented which I really appreciated. She didn't really give me the nail shape I asked for though which was a bit disappointing. The overall cost of my visit was 40 without tax, given that it was Tuesday I got 10% off which was nice. (They added 5 dollars fee for removing my previous shellac polish since it was done at another nail salon) As an overall the service was nice and the price was average. Read Less

This is an amazing salon, inexpensive and the ladies there do amazing nail art. They always have the best OPI and tons of other colors and aren't shy with the sparkles if you ask for them. A lot of nail salons see it as an inconvenience and act annoyed as I think it ads extra time to the service for anything special but not here! It is well worth every penny. They also train their staff well in massage which is a great bonus when you get a pedicure/manicure and very relaxing. Very chill atmosphere as well which adds to the relaxation factor. Read Less

Got an appointment the same day I called to get shellac nails done for the first time.The place is not all fancied up (so prices are not crazy), but it is SUPER clean, and they are very diligent and clean during the whole process.The girls are very fun and sweet to talk to and dont mind guiding you to what´s best and what they are doing. The color selection is very extensive which is also a plus. The whole process took about an hour, and I have never loved my hands more. Definitely will be coming back here Read Less

Walked in - no appointment and they squeezed me in for a mani & pedi. They were very busy. VERY clean every step of the way. There are 5 manicure stations and 5 pedicure chairs. The small of the lotions and their oils are really nice - not like the common cheep stuff, theirs is nice and floral. Already paid for my meter parking only to find they have parking at the rear. $45 for mani & pedi was great !! Read Less

Fantastic gel manicures. I get nervous about the UV exposure, but it's minimal and the manicure lasts for three weeks! Best manicure around for the price. Haven't tried their pedicures, but assume it's similar in terms of quality.Read Less

I LOVE getting my nails done here, they never get dirty, they last so long and all the girls there are fabulous! My sister in the esthetics field and is so picky and she loves this place and recommended to me. They have 10% on Tuesdays and every day except Tuesday you can collect stamps for $20 off your next visit, for regular clients this is so great! I will never go anywhere and prices are great for the quality of your nails excellent!Read Less

Lots of nail places in Vancouver now but hard to find the consistent quality of Royal. I know that every time I will get an amazing pedicure. I've never been disappointed. Good products, first class expertise and excellent customer service. Drop ins are welcome but I always make an appt. just in case because my days off are busy. I have never had to wait more than 5 minutes and most often am taken right on time. It feels like home there. It's a treat to go and relax, chat if I feel like it, watch TV or read. I should add that I have never had the polish chip and I can't say that about any other salon. Read Less

Vey disappointing.  Used to go hear a year ago, and recently went back to find it's changed for the worse.  Mani pedi there was over in a scant 30 mins and technician even forgot to massage my hands until I asked why she was putting on polish before massage!  She made some excuse about me watching the iPad, but I sure won't be going back here ever again.

Giving this place 3 stars because they accepted me as a walk in for solar nails on a saturday morning. Overall though I wasn't really impressed. My technician didn't really try to talk with me. She was really rough with my hands and it seemed a little too trigger happy with her rotary tool. I was flinching in pain at times because she was grinding my cuticles too much. She also cut my nail bed with her fingernails at an early stage of the process, which led to a lot of stinging when it came to the various cleaning liquids. She did the shape and length perfectly though. I have to question the quality of some of their product. About 80% of the nail polishes offered were separated when I went to look at them. The colour I chose out took forever to set leading to a lot of dings and dents on my way back home. I'm just wondering if it's because the polish was too old??  In short I won't be coming back to this place. Read Less
