Quality Tanning Salon. Portofino Sun Center is a special, high-quality place that I fully endorse. I have yet to find another tanning center that is as professional and organized - and clean. I appreciate the care they put into what they do.

Great place to Tan. I really appreciate a place that has new equiptment. Tanning is one of those things - you wanted to be on the newest, safest machine possible. Not something outdated and.... risky. Portofino Sun Tanning Salon has really knowledgeable staff members and great machines to use to tan. Hats off to one company that gives you what you pay for.

Great location. This place is hip! A hip place to tan and tan and TAN! I would literally go here daily if I didn't get so dark so fast! I love talking to the people that work there and getting their take on the coolest new tanning trends. They have beds, a spray booth, and personal airbrush tanning (which is what I prefer when I have time!) Cool, place - SOOO Soho.

Soho tanning at it's best. My doctor actually told me to go tanning. Not a joke. Because I don't ever see the sun here in the city, it turns out that I have a Vitamin D deficiency. Hence-PORTOFINO! The staff there is so helpful. The girl picked out a lotion for my sensitive skin and recommended the best tanning machine for me. I felt a little weird the first time tanning, but now I've visited a couple of times and it is a nice break in my busy work schedule.

gorgeous people!. i don't know if they pay gorgeous models to walk around here, but every time I have tanned at this Portofino, I am amazed by the stunning people! wow! Yeah the tanning has always been the very best in the city, but I cannot get over the eye-candy here. (thank god these things are anonymous). I will be a portofino tanner as long as i live near the city if only I can see a Victoriaasecret model next to me waiting to tan every now and then.

GREAT TAN - nice place, too. Great tanning place! I went to Portofino in Soho and will probably never go anywhere else. They really seem to get it there - how to make you tan and not red, and how to work out packages that fit your needs. They gave me a little package of 5 tans - 3 for before my vacation and 2 to use after (to maintain my vaca tan). It was perfect and I'll definitely go back.

Good staff!. Its not the tanning that keeps me at Portofino it is their awesome staff. I go there, and they literally are like tanning coaches, telling me what to do. And they are ALWAYS right!!!! Jamie is there mostly, and she's funny and fun and gets me exactly what I want. If its lotion, or the actual bed I'm using, she has never burnt me and always helps me to feel relaxed and taken care of.

Portofino is a good tanning salon. this place knows what its doing. or should i compliment the staff/owner. they certainly know what they are doing. and what they are doing, you might ask, is providing great service and really reallly good tanning. the machines are better than beach bums, and there are definitely more to choose from. if you are gonna pick a place to tan indoors, pick portofino because they are a cut above, i think.

Awesome Soho Tanning. I like Portofino better than other places I've been. This place really is a popular, effective way to tan. You can be in and out within 20 minutes if you make an appointment. Call ahead. Since they honor appointments, you may as well make one to save yourself the time. Everyone comes out looking dark and healthy. I like the couch in the waiting room and the staff seems to know what they are talking about. Good tanning salon.

SOHO TANNING IS SO CHIC!. This place has the best equiptment. I went to their website and saw a ton of crazy looking tanning beds. Well.... they are even CRAZIER looking in person. They are new and fancy and get you so dark. So much quicker than the old beds. These also just have the light that bronzes you, doesn't make you red. I love the tan I got. I'm so happy with it! Cool place with a cool reputation that is well-deserved.
