Cold Plunge & Sauna
Spa Castle New York offers a comprehensive sauna experience with ten unique saunas, including Himalayan Salt, gold, jade, halotherapy, color therapy, and dry saunas. Spa-goers consistently praise the variety and quality of the saunas, noting they are a central and enjoyable feature of the visit. The venue provides six hydrotherapy pools, with guests highlighting the powerful jets. The outdoor pools are a unique and standout feature not found at other New York spas, described as providing a therapeutic, water-massage-like experience. Guests appreciate the contrast between the warm pools and the cool evening air, especially when the pools are lit with blue lighting at night.
Atmosphere
The spa provides a clean, peaceful, and relaxing atmosphere that serves as an escape from the city. Guests describe it as a great place for a full spa "daycation." The ambiance transitions from day to night, with evening visits offering a unique experience with the illuminated outdoor pools and relaxing spa music in areas like the penthouse. Some guests note the environment can become less serene when crowded with children, particularly on days when school is closed, making it feel more like a community pool than a tranquil spa.
Pricing
The spa operates on a day-pass model, with a mentioned day rate of $110. Massages, facials, and other premium services are available for an additional fee. Many guests feel the price is well worth it given the extensive variety of pools and saunas available throughout the premises.
Staff
Feedback on staff is mixed. Some guests report positive experiences, such as excellent massages from specific therapists like Lucy. Others report issues with locker room staff closing showers early, before the posted closing time, and note that lifeguards could be more proactive in cleaning waste around the pools and monitoring safety.
Additional Amenities
The spa provides robes, towels, slippers, shampoo, conditioner, and soap, so guests only need to bring a swimsuit. The venue features multiple indoor and outdoor hydrotherapy pools, a social bar pool, and private suite hydrotherapy baths. Seasonal holiday decorations are also a appreciated annual feature.
