What to know

Bathhouse Flatiron is a unique wellness destination located at 14 West 22nd Street in Manhattan's Flatiron area. This facility was adapted from a former parking garage into a sophisticated space for relaxation and socializing, designed by the New York studio Rockwell Group. The design concept was inspired by the 'Hero's Journey,' turning a subterranean environment into a sanctuary of health. Spanning three subterranean levels, the spa is the first Manhattan location for the company, which launched its first outpost in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, in 2019. It is framed by co-founders Travis Talmadge and Jason Goodman as a 'no-frills banya and luxury spa,' filling a niche between traditional wellness models and high-end luxury. Visitors can experience a variety of thermal circuits. The facility features six thermal pools, including two hot pools at 104°F, two cold pools at 45°F and 50°F, a neutral pool at 98°F, and a salt pool at 98°F. Additional amenities include a hot-coal dry sauna, a banya, an infrared sauna, a steam room, and marble hammams. To enhance the experience, the spa hosts daily sauna rituals called Aufguss. During these sessions, sauna masters use essential oils, music, and towel waving to disperse heat throughout the sauna, creating a communal bathing experience inspired by ancient Greek and Roman traditions.
