Head here if you want to feel like you're out of the city for the day. QC recently opened a new building that hosts a full-service cafe and bar, meaning there are plenty of food options for AM-PM. Go on your birthday and bring a guest to get 2 day pa...

AIRE has been the most exclusive spa experience I've had in NYC. For those who may want to avoid crowds, your entrance to the pools is based on your treatment time, keep the common area from filling up. They also have one of the best locker rooms of ...
AIRE Ancient Baths

ShunFa Relaxing Center
Spa Castle is NYC's original Korean day spa. Make a day trip for an all-inclusive wellness experience from pools to salt rooms and saunas, with food on-site, and lots of outdoor space.

World Spa is one of the newest all-inclusive spa locations in the 5 boroughs. This one is just off of the subway so it's easy to get to. Most of the spaces are interior, with less outdoor space than other larger spas.

One of the newest trends in NYC are membership-based wellness spaces like Othership. Rather than offering an expansive list of treatments or services, you can drop into Othership for a sound bath or meditation class in their saunas. Follow with a dip...
