Visited this past weekend. Definitely worth going. After entering and removing your shoes, proceed to pay to get a locker key and outfit for saunas upstairs. From there you go to the gendered locker rooms. You can choose to shower and then get in 1 of 3 hot tubs. Hot, Mostly Hot, and (usually) Icy Cold. You can also go in the sauna or steam room. Steam room for men closes at 8pm. It is also heavily guarded at various points of the day because they don't want more than 7 people in it. I loved the icy cold tub. When i first arrived it wasn't cold enough. I was about to say something and then the staff noticed. They corrected this. There is nothing like coming out of the steam or sauna or hot tub and then hopping under the icy cold shower they have to rinse the sweat off and then proceed to the icy tub. It is magical and refreshing. You can get body scrubs too. I went upstairs to try the suanas - there are four of them. Also a place to relax, and an ice room. The ice room does need a floor repair, i slipped in a hole in the floor that is covered by a piece of fabric/canvas. I also had the Hot Pot Udon. Price listed was $15 but when i checked out it was $17 something. maybe tax? Overall I'd recommend. They should put eucalyptus in the ice room or saunas I think it would add to the ambiance. But for the price, only $40, i'm not complaining. Had a great time. Recommend checking the place out.

I went here last winter on a super cold day, the trains and walk over was freezing so it was so nice to be there completely warm. The price can't be beat unless you have a groupon to Spa Club. Nonetheless, the price is great and really my only issue was each tub was basically the same temperature. The people were friendly and I would definitely recommend.

Probably my favorite go-to K spa in NYC. No frills, very authentic, kinda rough around the edges, but very affordable and it gets the job done. If you get a scrub or massage, make sure you bring cash to tip the guy - the first time I had a scrub I didnt have cash - I said I'd go to the ATM on the way out, but he wasn't having it. A tip goes a long way with the reception too. Cold plunge could be a bit cooler, but overall this is a great spot.

I visited New York Spa & Sauna during a Thanksgiving trip to NYC and made it a point to stop by. Coming from my Times Square hotel, I took the 7 express train followed by a taxi, which dropped me right at the front door. Upon entering, I found a designated area for shoes and socks near the entrance. For $35 (the price has now gone up to $40), I purchased a spa pass, received two small towels, and picked up my clothing for the co-ed areas. Note: If you’re new to Korean spas, be aware that nudity is required in the gender-specific wet areas. Heading to the lower level, I easily located the men’s wet area. After finding my locker, I got undressed, showered, and began my spa experience. Feedback 1. Temperature Adjustments Needed: The “lukewarm” pool was 105–106°F, while the “hot” pool was 107°F. It would be better if the lukewarm pool were closer to its name. 2. Safety Concerns: The railing for the steps to the cold pool and upper level was duct-taped and felt very loose. Be cautious when using it! 3. Towel Size: Both towels provided were small. Having at least one full-size towel would improve the experience. Bring your own if possible. 4. Steam Room Caution: Be careful where you sit. The left side is near the steam vent, and when it activates, it can burn if you’re too close. What I Loved 1. Great Community Atmosphere: The vibe was welcoming, and it seemed like everyone respected the space. 2. Polite Guests: I didn’t encounter anyone rude, which made the experience even more relaxing. 3. Affordable Price: At $35, the price felt just right for the amenities. 4. Fantastic Sauna: The sauna was well-maintained and an absolute highlight of my visit. Overall, New York Spa & Sauna provided a relaxing and fun experience with a few minor improvements that could make it even better. If you’re in the area, it’s worth a visit—just come prepared with your own towel and a little extra caution!
