Fact sheet
- Name
- BestNuru, the Best Nuru Award (最佳 Nuru 按摩大奖, รางวัลนูรุยอดเยี่ยม)
- What it is
- A yearly award for nuru massage shops in Bangkok and Pattaya, decided by anonymous visits.
- First edition
- 2027. Ballot published; voting opens soon; Nominees named 1 February 2027; winners announced November 2027.
- Shops on the ballot
- Every nuru shop known in Bangkok and Pattaya. None applied and none paid.
- How it's decided
- A verified public vote picks the Nominees (top 10 Bangkok, top 5 Pattaya). Each gets three anonymous visits in three different months with a random therapist, then an open check of training records and health-check papers. Three Rosettes: Service (required: the Nuru Standard on every visit, training, health checks, hygiene), the Team, and the House (venue, front of house, responsiveness).
- Levels
- One Rosette (Service), Two (Service plus the Team or the House), Three (all three); 一珠 / 二珠 / 三珠; 1 / 2 / 3 ดวง. Honourable Mentions for shops that stand out without reaching the Service standard.
- Independence
- No shop can pay to be listed, ranked or awarded. Visits are paid in full by BestNuru.
- The emblem
- Four gold discs meet around a pearl: the four things checked on every visit (craft, training, health checks, hygiene). A shop earns a Rosette only where all four meet.
