The staff were really friendly especially the ones in the front desk. I was having sort of a bad day but their smiles and kindness made me feel welcomed. They provide you with drinks which are amazing. I enjoyed the steam room and temazcal the most. They were so relaxing and overall I had a lot of fun. read more

Soak & Sage - Apothecary - Day Spas Near Me - Renton, Washington

I can't say enough amazing things about Soak & Sage Sauna + Cold Plunge -- it's hands down one of the best wellness experiences if you need to relax! From the moment you walk in, the space feels thoughtfully designed, clean, and calming. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between modern and serene, making it easy to immediately relax and reset. The sauna itself is top-tier -- beautifully maintained, the ideal temperature, and deeply restorative. But the real magic is in the contrast therapy. The cold plunge is invigorating, refreshing, and leaves you feeling completely recharged. I felt clearer mentally, looser physically, and noticeably less stressed! read more

Extremely unprofessional and unsettling experience. I felt unsafe due to a total lack of privacy and professional standards. I was taken to what appeared to be a storage room and placed on a broken table without a face cradle. Throughout the session, the practitioner was clearly distracted by her phone, which vibrated constantly; at one point, she was even texting while massaging me with one hand. Most alarmingly, a man entered the room while I was partially exposed. Beyond these privacy violations, the establishment required unusual waivers regarding touch in sensitive areas that felt inappropriate for a professional massage. The environment was incredibly noisy--with carts rolling on concrete and competing music sources--and the decor felt more like a low-end basement than a legitimate spa. Between the safety concerns and the unprofessional conduct, I left feeling anxious and would strongly advise others to avoid this place. read more

We came for date night and it was such a relaxing experience. I'm training for an Ironman 70.3 right now, and we live a very active lifestyle and so this bathhouse experience was soooo needed for my recovery. Come for recovery, relaxation, or socializing. Thanks Soak & Sage! read more

Soak & Sage - Day Spas Near Me - Renton, Washington

Loooove this place for countless reasons, but most uniquely because 1) the ambience is melty zen; 2) yet we can also socialize (!!!) and, 3) the staff are wonderfully responsive. I'd come here roughly three times before deciding to host a Galentine's Day celebration, via private booking. The multiple spa spaces (steam room, clay sauna, Finnish sauna, and more) make it perfect for a large-ish gathering to have elbow room (we had 20 people) while the layout also makes it intimate enough that we felt connected. Nothing like all your friends cheering from the hot tub while you cold plunge! While the spa is always "social" so no need to whisper, I highly recommend the luxury and fun of a private booking. Aside from respectfully keeping our voices low in the locker room near treatment rooms being used by other guests, we were able to laugh and toast to our hearts' content. On that note, the staff was so accommodating with a table for the snacks we brought, a tub with ice for our drinks, and generally all the coordination that it took to pull this off. They made it as easy as possible. And on the day-of, Denise was a particularly gracious host -- welcoming us and even patiently/considerately snapping a group photo from multiple angles (at our request, to be clear - haha). I'll be back many more times -- whether solo or with friends. So grateful for this urban retreat in a very convenient location for Seattle-area city'zens. read more

Awesome, thanks! Loved it. Clean and it was very hot. Cold plunge was super cold, very good for anti-inflammatory cure.

Super nice and relaxing place. There's a steam Room and 2 saunas as well as a hot tub and a cold plunge. Both saunas were relaxing and super hot (in a good way). The steam room smelled like essential oils and really helped soothe your body overall. I felt like there wasn't too many other people there but enough to make me feel comfortable having conversations and not ruining someone else's vibe. I also got a facial with Anne and she was amazing, walked me through every step and gave me recommendations for what I could use on my skin. When I left I was glowing and we were giggling the whole facial, definitely recommend her and this place as a nice relax day :) read more

Soak and Sage truly lives up to its name. The atmosphere is moody, calming, and thoughtfully designed, with a great variety of amenities and helpful guidance on how to get the most out of the experience. Between the two types of saunas, steam room, cold plunge, and hot tub, it's easy to tailor your visit to exactly what your body and mind need that day. I left feeling deeply relaxed, refreshed, and rejuvenated. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the entire space was clean, peaceful, and well maintained. It's the kind of place that makes it easy to slow down and fully reset. read more

I had the opportunity to experience @Soak & Sage in Renton , and it was exactly what I needed after a long day of work. From the moment you step into the space, you're greeted by the calming aroma of sage and an overall sense of peace. They start you off with an tincture of your choice which was such a thoughtful and grounding way to begin the experience. I went for the cold plunge first invigorating and refreshing and then eased my way into the hot pool and the steam room. Every part of the experience felt intentional and restorative. The staff was professional, welcoming, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout my visit. If you're looking for a place to decompress, reset, and truly take care of yourself, Soak and Sage is the perfect spot. I'll definitely be back! read more

Soak & Sage - Day Spas Near Me - Renton, Washington

My fiancé booked this as a date for us and it was super relaxing. I got a body scrub and massage, which gave me discounted access to the baths afterwards. The baths themselves were comfortable, with a hot plunge, cold plunge, two types of saunas, and a steam room. They also had a pretty unique snowball machine which you could use to make balls of ice, as well as a hot tea station. My only complaint is that the space is a bit small and can feel a bit crowded, especially the locker rooms which literally have the lockers right up against the entrance. They use curtains to preserve privacy, but when people enter, if you have a locker by the door they will bump into you. This definitely detracted from the experience because crowded spaces stress me out, so I basically just spent 2 hours de-stressing only to get stressed out by the locker room again LOL. read more

I came here on a Sunday at 7 PM with my friend, two parking spots conveniently opened up right as we arrived, and it wasn't busy at all. Two hours is plenty of time to enjoy the clay sauna, dry sauna, steam room, hot tub, and 43° cold plunge. The women's locker room feels a little condensed but is stocked with the essentials: lockers with programmable locks, a Dyson hairdryer, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body lotion, body oil, and makeup towels. There's no need to bring sandals or a towel, they offer robes upon request, and the bathing suit spinner dries your suit in seconds. Parking is limited, but Gene Coulon Park or the Southport public lot is the recommended alternative. Kimberly was very accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure our visit worked out. The people here are friendly and grounded, making it a great space to meet others while recharging. They even have a deck of cards in the sauna with prompts to ask eachother questions! They also offer holistic services like massages, facials, scrubs & wraps, breathwork, sound healing, bodywork, and wellness options like fillers, Botox, and NAD. I do feel the website could be clearer (for those who don't use social media) about special nights or blocked-off times. Otherwise, this spa is a wonderful place to invite friends, escape and recharge. TIP: Walk-ins are welcome, including non-members, but booking online prior makes checking in at the front desk seamless. The bathhouse is limited to 16 people at a time, so it's never overcrowded. read more

I highly recommend coming here to wrap up a vacation or unwind after a long hike!!! My partner and I booked a one-day admission to end our Pacific Northwest road trip, and it was the perfect way to relax. We've been to similar spa-style locations before, but the staff here stood out--they were efficient, welcoming, and walked us through everything step-by-step. The women's locker room is on the smaller side, so it helps to be comfortable with nudity since some guests may choose to be more open. The curtains between the two shower stalls are a bit sheer and could be longer and more opaque for better privacy. That said, I loved the thoughtful amenities--quality hair dryers, organic tampons and pads, hair ties, brushes, and more. The saunas, steam room, cold plunge, and warm pool were all very clean and well-maintained. I especially appreciated the bar area with complimentary essential oil scents, chilled towels, ice balls, and both hot and cold water available for guests. read more

No. Just no. Save your money. We booked a two-hour bathhouse session at Soak & Sage with massages afterward, thinking we were in for a relaxing reset. Instead, my nervous system clocked in for a full shift. The stress started the second we walked through the door. I get that it's a social spa...fine. But this wasn't lively, it was chaotic. People squeezing past each other trying to exit, others hovering at check-in, no space to breathe. I could barely move to get to the front desk. Most of the staff were friendly, which I appreciate, but the physical layout makes that warmth irrelevant. First impressions matter, and this one was jarring. The women's locker room? Truly the smallest I've ever seen at a spa. One bathroom. Zero flow. You're bumping elbows just trying to change. The showers offered barely any privacy and the curtain gaps were... ambitious. It didn't feel thoughtful; it felt crammed. Credit where it's due: the steam room and cold plunge were solid. Those were the only moments I felt remotely grounded. But the sauna? Nuclear. I've done plenty of saunas. I know heat. This was over the top. I overheated in under ten minutes. And the vibe. I wasn't expecting monastery-level silence, but the music choices were... confusing. Not calming. Not cohesive. Just kind of there, like someone's experimental playlist accidentally went public. The "quiet zone" wasn't quiet. The women's locker room door made this horribly loud sound every time it opened. The swimsuit dryer is right by the treatment rooms (not even effective at drying a swimsuit anyway so don't waste your time and everyone's ears). You could hear doors shutting, people chatting, shuffling in the hall. It's hard to relax when the soundtrack is constant disruption. Then the massage. Honestly? Uncomfortable. Not because of pressure, because of presence. My therapist kept yawning. Pausing. Long stretches where nothing was happening. It felt like there were more gaps than actual massage. She barely used any oil or lotion, so it was dry and draggy instead of fluid. The whole thing felt disengaged, like she was counting down the minutes. A spa should lower your cortisol. This spiked mine. If you're looking for deep relaxation, privacy, or thoughtful flow, this probably isn't it. There are too many good options out there to settle for stressed-out "self care." read more

The stars are for the hot sauna and steam rooms. The environment was tranquil a bit small but had a variety of options. For the day pass it's okay! For services I wouldn't strongly recommend. We came on a Monday which to unwind and celebrate an occasion. It was a disorganized experience for us; I got a confirmation call a week before asking if we wanted the same room, we did and I confirmed so we were looking forward to a couples massage in the same room at our designated time. We were not informed the time changed as a result. When I arrived we were told the services were not the same room and that the service does not include entry, the entry piece was my misread of the website. We purchased the entry tickets for two as we were early for our service but when asking to be in the same room was told that it was fine. We had two massages scheduled and it was quite disorganized from beginning to end. They did their best to accommodate but it felt frantic. It went from starting at 4:45pm to being at 5:00pm given a scheduling error, we were told mixed things - first that we booked 5:30pm and we were too early, then told we were at 5:15pm originally. I'll be honest as a customer I'm okay with making a mistake and reading things but I felt really uncomfortable like I did a grave mistake by first arriving early to the facility and then for thinking my service was what I read in the confirmation email. Communication could be a lot... better. Once we started the services felt like we were rushed through the intake process, the following service we had some bruises service. Not the best experience for us. We ended later and we missed some dinner plan reservations. All in all, the NO frills spa experience was fine but the massage could have been better. read more

Very disorganized for a noon arrival time. The staff informed us they were slammed over the holidays and were exhausted. The locker room is WAY too small for the amount of people they let into the facility at once. There's 2 showers and 1 toilet and no space to get changed. Non of the lockers had clean towels and we had to ask staff to restock. They had no cups for the tinctures, so that was a bust. There really wasn't enough staff to give you a full tour and explain the layout. It was odd. We kept having to ask for information. The line for the women's toilet was so long throughout my 2 hour visit, I had to ask if I could use the men's. I used it twice. Gross. The tile in the steam room looked dirty. I didn't even venture into the hot tub, as it was stuffed full of bodies. The sauna's were nice, but really hot. The snowballs did help, but still found it uncomfortable to sit and chit chat without getting overheated. My massage was a overall good, but my male massage therapist left me feeling uncomfortable. He was not very considerate about keeping my naked body covered while I changed positions on the table. While on my stomach, he put me in what felt like a wrestling pose. He put my hands over my head and then told me to roll to my side so he could work on the knot. I looked down and my boobs were hanging out and jiggling around because of the pressure he used. I couldn't reach the blanket to cover myself. He also grabbed my hair and arched my back while in this position. It made me feel uncomfortable, but wrote it off as a unique massage technique. He was a nice guy and chatted my whole massage. In fact he talked a lot about marriage and gave me lots of unsolicited advice. It wasn't until the end of my massage, when he had me rotate on my back, he was rubbing the front of my left leg and then lifted my knee up to my armpit to do some sort of hip opener. I was sooooo uncomfortable because he didn't tuck the blanket to protect view of my vagina. I'm pretty sure, he could see up to my cervix. He did the same on the other side. Again, maybe this is a unique type of massage specific to this spa. The massage therapist also had me huff some essential oil at the beginning and middle of massage... Now I'm hoping it was just essential oil and not something that would harm me.... I will NOT be back. I spent $300 and left feeling germy, violated and disgusted. I feel like the owner of this business just wants to make money and doesn't care about the well being of their staff and the experience of paying customers. Olympus Spa for the WIN!!!! read more

Wow what an experience. It was definitely a mini vacation. The experience was made better by the recommendations and assistance of the staff. Everyone was kind, helpful. The facility is very clean and kept up well. Smells were amazing and I will be back! read more

I went there a second time, hoping it would be better. The front desk was not friendly and seemed like they didn't know what they were doing. The lockers were very dirty, with water running all over the floor and dirty towels left everywhere. There is only one bathroom, and it smells bad and is dirty. The bathhouse does not have extra showers, so after everyone sweats and sits on every surface, no one showers before entering the pools. The treatment rooms are very small, and the music plays extremely loud. If you have a facial or massage, you are not going to relax. I had a facial tonight and left with a headache from the loud music. My facial itself was pretty good, and the girl who works there was really sweet. I hope this place makes improvements to facility and staff. read more

What an amazing experience! It was so relaxing and the staff are wonderful. The facility is nice and clean too!

Awesome experience - lots of options for sauna and really well thought out amenities.

I've lived in Southern California for 17 years mainly in Los Angeles but also San Diego. I actually moved here for functional and integrative medicine as well as the more progressive health and wellness scene. I've worked with elite athletes at a performance center where we had red light, cold plunge, cryotherapy, float tank, and a lot of other recovery modalities before they became mainstream. I also have integrative doctors who do vitamin IVs, hormones, peptides and other more progressive stuff that were ahead of the curve. For first responders I utilize wellness studios for sauna, cold plunge and float tanks to calm their physiology after cumulative stress or traumatic incidents wear them down. Who would have thought in Renton Washington I'd have a wellness spa/studio next to my hotel that is far more fabulous than any I've been to in LA or San Diego? They do have vitamin IVs, Botox and a host of other holistic or functional medicine type stuff. But the winner to me is a really affordable 2 hours to do multiple different saunas that are SWEET and even include aromatherapy and sage, a really big cold plunge, thermal hot tub, and steam room. You even get to choose an herbal drink prior to starting your sessions. Most wellness places give you steep pricing to a la carte one kind of sauna and cold plunge or other expensive individual treatments that don't last that long and would easily cost double what 2 hours of time does at Soak & Sage to do multiple saunas, cold plunge, ice balls, sage, aromatherapy and lots of other amenities. The place is extremely clean, modern and relaxing. This would be a great place to go after a stressful day of work , for a date night with your partner to calm down and bond, and whether you're an athlete or first responder, that's training hard or dealing with a lot of stress - this could be a game changer to do once a week or so for recovery to enhance your performance. I'm searching around San Diego after returning trying to find something similar with no luck. Just the à la carte super expensive narrow option wellness Studios. This place is like a little retreat center and I'm hoping I get to go back to that hotel just to visit Soak & Sage again. I heard they're building one in Nashville that's going to be even better so I am quite envious! Peace, The Tactical Chaplain read more

Okay, so I REALLY wanted to like the place because it's close, not bad priced, and I thought it would be a lovely monthly addition to my self-care routine. Getting any facial treatment does not actually include any soaking time, which...I understand, but I would rather pay a bit more and have it include the full spa experience vs. separate. I thought it was kind of weird because I didn't want an hour and a half of soaking time, but like, a nice 30min before a facial would've been awesome. I arrived a little early and was asked to wait on a bench right outside the treatment rooms, but it mostly just felt like I was in the way. My facial was in a treatment room that was RIGHT NEXT to the locker room (that also had shared showers and a tiny dressing area). You could hear activity in the locker room over the calming spa music, and it generally felt like the walls were incredibly thin. HUGE shout out to the woman who did my facial, Monique, who I would've continued seeing because she was amazing...but when I called the day after, I was informed by someone who said they were an owner that she had put in her notice the day prior. Given she had mentioned that she helped build the treatment practice and hired a bunch of the facialists, she clearly wanted the place to be successful, so I am wondering what actually happened. While I didn't have a horrible time, it definitely felt like there are some new spa growing pains for this place. Go in with modest expectations and also maybe the hydrotherapy circuit and bathhouse vibes are better than the treatment. read more

I had the opportunity to spend the afternoon with new friends organized by HERMVMT that gathered together business owners and creators for 3 hours of connection and wellness. The owner Leslie was so sweet and gave us a tour of her space and joined us for connecting as well. I loved the there was free parking for 3 hours just scan the code on your phone. As you enter in you're welcomed and asked for your shoe size for sandals and led back to the changing locker rooms. There's showers to rinse off before and after. And, there's plenty of signage around to guide you through the different rooms and time suggested. This was the first time I've ever done 2 minutes for a cold plunge and my body definitely thanked me. I have issues with inflammation and this spa day was the reset I didn't know I needed. I left feeling reset, relaxed and gained new friends! If you're thinking about going. Go! read more

A Sanctuary for Mind, Body & Soul Soak & Sage is an absolute gem! The combination of the hot soak, cold plunge, steam room, and sauna left me feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. What sets Soak & Sage apart is the attention to detail--not just in their beautiful facility, but in the experience. I enjoyed alternating between the spaces, listening to what my body needed and for how long. The Temazcal sauna was a unique and deeply grounding experience - perfect for this yogi. I loved experiencing for the first time with a women's co-working group. We worked and then relaxed. It was the perfect afternoon that nourished body, mind and spirit. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a mindful escape! 5/5 stars! Can't wait to return! read more

This was by far the worst spa experience I've ever had. The champagne body scrub was extremely subpar and clearly performed by someone who seemed improperly trained -- only the tops of my arms and parts of my legs were scrubbed, with entire areas completely ignored. After the mud application, I was told to rinse off in a makeshift shower in the middle of the room, which felt awkward and unprofessional. When I returned for lotion, the sheet was still dirty with mud and hadn't been changed or cleaned. The facility itself is small, cramped, and misleading compared to the photos. There are only two female showers and one bathroom in the locker room, and the lockers are so tightly packed that two people can't even change comfortably at the same time. I brought my daughter-in-law expecting a relaxing experience, but it was anything but. I even had to translate prior to her 60-minute massage because the masseuse only spoke Spanish. We also paid an extra $60 each to use the amenities, which were overcrowded and absolutely not worth the additional cost. Overall, the entire visit was disappointing and far from relaxing. I would strongly recommend choosing another spa -- I genuinely don't understand how this place has a 4.9 rating. read more

This was my first experience at a Social Wellness Spa, which was so relaxing and fun! It was nice to try out all their rituals offered: soak, sauna, steam, snow, and sage during a 2-hr entry. Love the free aromatherapy inhalers, cold-scented washcloths, snowballs, water on tap & tea station as well! Kept us hydrated and comfy during our time there. The swimsuit dryer was also super neat and convenient. read more

Great experience at Soak & Sage. The space is clean, calming, and well maintained, and the soaking experience was truly relaxing. Everything felt organized and welcoming from start to finish.

Booked the two hour pass here, check in process was very easy and they walked us through everything. The bathrooms were small and it's Interestring because the changing area weren't actual floor to ceiling walls so I could very easily hear stuff happening in the male bathroom which is a bit weird but the actual toilet area had walls and separation. They had tea and water easily accessible and all the sauna and steam and hot tubs were very nice. The hot tub was small and only could hold a max of 6 people it said on the sign but I did see more than 6 people cram in there at one point. Overall I'd try again and people seem to really recommend the massages there so I'd probs go back and try it. read more

We visited Soak and Sage for the first time on a Sunday at noon. Upon arrival, the 15-car parking lot in front of the facility was full, but we were able to find parking along the side of the building. Parking is complimentary, but you need to register your vehicle by scanning a QR code and entering your credit card details on the website (though you won't be charged). This appears to be run by the property management group. Admission is $60 per person for a two-hour entry, with an additional 3% fee for credit card payments. This pricing is in line with other day spas in the area. Slippers and towels are provided, though we found the slippers to be very slippery when wet, which made us cautious of slipping or twisting an ankle. I'd recommend taking extra care when walking in them. The towels, while not the highest quality, served their purpose. The staff at the front desk were friendly and explained that Soak and Sage operates more like a bathhouse than a traditional spa. This means that visitors are encouraged to chat with one another, which is a more social environment compared to spas that promote quiet and relaxation. If you've experienced hydrotherapy circuits at other spas, you might be somewhat disappointed with the offering here. We were excited to check out the facility after following its construction on social media for the past year, but there were a few aspects of the experience that didn't meet our expectations. One of the biggest concerns we had was the lack of encouragement to shower before using the pool areas. In fact, there are no showers in the hydrotherapy circuit space at all--only in the changing rooms, which are far enough from the circuit that it doesn't seem to promote showering between stations. As a result, people transition from the steam room or sauna straight into the pool areas. From our experience, both owning a hot tub and visiting spas around the world, we could tell that the pH levels in the hot tub were off, and it had a funky and sour smell. The water was also cloudy. On a positive note, the cold plunge was truly cold, unlike other spas that claim to have a cold plunge but feature water that's closer to room temperature. We also enjoyed the spacious sauna and liked the aesthetic. A second sauna was under construction during our visit. The steam room does a good job at generating a lot of steam, but the mechanism for pumping in the steam was incredibly loud, making it hard to hear the person right beside you. Additionally, there was no scent in the room; the staff suggested we bring a tiny container of potpourri in with us to sniff, but it felt a bit odd. The locker rooms are very small. They have a single toilet room and a two-person shower. I'm calling this a two-person shower because in the ladies room, there are two shower heads but no separation between the two, making the space feel less private. The locker room was quite crowded when we arrived, with showers and the toilet room occupied and three other people changing. There's a small bench near the mirrors with hair dryers, but no benches near the lockers, which made changing uncomfortable. The lockers require a key that you must carry with you during your spa experience, but without robes with pockets, there wasn't a great place to store our keys. We also found that the showers in the locker rooms never got hot, only warm, which was disappointing. You should also note that the locker room walls don't extend to the ceiling, so conversations in the locker room can be easily overheard from the hallway or men's locker room and vice versa. While it's great to have a new local spa with a hydrotherapy circuit, I would recommend visiting with modest expectations and embracing the social atmosphere. This isn't a luxurious experience, but if you go in with that mindset, you can still enjoy the experience for what it is. read more

It was my first time at a bathhouse, I cannot gloat enough! Exactly the relaxation needed after a long week.

I took advantage of the $49 birthday week special. I came in on an early Friday afternoon, and there weren't many people there at the time. I went alone, just wanting to relax post-birthday festivities and work. I didn't realize this was a social spa, so I came at a good time when it wasn't too busy. I followed one of their circuits called Detox, but you can do whatever calls to you. I enjoyed the steam room and the Finnish sauna the most. I was brave enough to take a few dips into the cold plunge pool a couple of times, it was at a chilly 43 degrees. The Temazcal sauna was nice, but it can only fit about 4 people. The thermal pool can only hold 6 people, and not comfortably. There were about 6 or so people, including me, in the whole facility at the time I arrived and was doing the circuit. By the time I left, there were maybe 12 or so. But most of us were already there for two hours and about to leave. I did chat with a couple of people, but I don't think I will come back unless I have at least one friend with me, as I prefer to stick to myself when at a spa and that its at least relatively quiet (that was on me not realizing this was a social spa and not one to be left alone to relax and reflect). Overall, the facilities were nice, the locker room was clean and stocked for whatever you need, they have a hot tea station as well as chilled, cooled, and sparkling water for drinking in between experiences, snowballs to take with you into the Finnish sauna to rub all over yourself, chilled towels with essentials oils to help refresh your face and body if you wanted, and many other items to enhance your spa experience. read more

Mostly everything was great. PROS Friendly, quick check in Tour for first time guest Two hour block Sparkling water, tea Unpretentious vibe Lockers, towels, and flip flops CONS Gross incense burning And the scented towels were a bit much. Parking fills up fast Water not refilled quickly in the Finnish sauna Can get crowded Temezcal sauna didn't seem hot enough. No clock visible to check time Having too much scent can be hard for people who have sensory issues, or who are sensitive to fragrances. It would be 5 stars++ without the overly pungent incense. I would go back, but the incense was almost a deal breaker. read more

Do: bring bathing suit, arrive 15-30 minutes early for parking, changing, checking in, and pre-rinse and walkthrough. There is 3hr free parking out front, but if you get the 2hr parking down the road they won't let you extend the time(not Soak & Sage's fault) but if you are early your car spot will end earlier than your hydrotherapy.. Fairly packed.. would have liked a more immersive and intimate experience, but a good experience nonetheless. They had a 43degree cold pool, fairly shallow at 2'3", same with the hot tub (forget the temp, but a good temp) two types of hot rock based saunas, one on the smaller and lighter side which is definitely nice to start with, and the other at 201.. HOT, but still nice. The favorite was probably the steam room, set at 109, they had cold towels you could grab, cold/warm water and sparkling water on tap. I do wish they'd have clocks in every spot though.. $69, 2 hours, not bad! They also have small lockers with reusable code locks that you can put your own temporary code into to protect your stuff which is nice, provided shower gels for washing after, as well as a quick 10 second bathing suit dryer. This place was nice, priced better than some competition since you get two hours rather than one, little noisy at times from groups, but everyone was very friendly! read more
