Reviews
City Sun Tanning says it offers "New York's Best Tan", but don't take its word for it. City Sun Tanning was named the Best of Citysearch in 2007 and 2008 and they have an impressive four-star average on Yelp. Here's what Yelpers have been saying:
- "This place is amazing... First of all, the ladies here are soooooo friendly and pleasant. Elissa was the girl who helped me today decide which tanning bed to select and was so patient with me. Keep in mind, without tanning, I am as white as they come, so she helped make sure I don't come out burned, but also don't come out with nothing to show for it. The selection of tanning beds they have here is awesome. The inside of this place is so relaxing and quiet." - Melissa W.
- "Red hair and pale with freckles. I get the spray tan and am a huge fan. It takes about 20 seconds for the actual spray and you're in and out the salon door in 5 mins flat. Let's not fail to mention the peppermint patty that awaits you after you step out of the booth... Friendly service, clean, big, open facility and great equipment." - Hadley S.
- "The people who work there are affable and friendly, they have a diligent cleaning crew working hard to make sure the beds are clean, they provide cold towels and even York peppermint patties! I haven't been able to make it to a beach this summer, or even a pool where I can lay out, so I have been having to take trips here to ensure my golden hue, and City Sun is my savior!" - Max B.

City Sun Tanning
As the tanning bed's lid closes, a cool breeze starts to blow, a gentle mist cools your skin, and the scents of aromatherapy transform a 12-minute tanning session into a miniature vacation. This S-Class bed is just one of the approximately 10 tanning options that fill City Sun Tanning. Staffers help clients select the right bed, leading them down hallways to an iBed sunbed—which features rotating facial lights—or a X-2 High Pressure bronzing stand-up, which can bronze pallid skin in ten minutes. Alternatively, visitors step onto the AutoBronzer's open-air platform, which evenly sprays UV-free tanning solution. In June of 2009, this sunless system caught the eye of New York Magazine, which lauded City Sun Tanning for having one of the "top five spray tans." The tanning salon has also garnered accolades from Citysearchers, who for several years, named it "Best of Citysearch".
