Kim B.: Water lounge ($50 for 3 hours or free with a $100+ service) is fabulous, beautiful and super clean. I love the scents in the sauna and steam room.
Kat: Great deep tissue massage. Make sure to go early or stay late - and bring a suit - to use the water lounge w/hot tub, cold plunge and sauna.
Compass: Find an aquatic oasis at Great Jones, where a water lounge is outfitted with pools, a waterfall, steam rooms, and saunas.
Dartagnan Delgado: Come during Boris' shift. Coed sauna and spa with old country character. B.Y.O. Slippers and suit especially the women.
Brady Dale: This place is chaotic, dirty and loud. If you like a chill schvitz and a good spot for hanging out by the saunas, this isn't your place. Everyone gets dirty sandals.
K-Þórır D.: The place for a zen vibe after a long day/week in that furious city. Sauna. Massage. Baths... And a nice rooftop for sunny days ♥
Joshua Parkhurst: Sweat as much as you can in the Russian Sauna, then take the plunge into the cold pool. Have a Baltikya beer afterwards.
NearSay NYC: Beautiful spa, love it! Ask about their V.I.P. Sauna and Jacuzzi Lounge for people and private events.
FreshNYC p}-:{>: The spa is not just for suits working in the financial district - everyone gathers here to wash away the city grime and spend some quality time in the plunge pool, infrared sauna or cigar room. Read more.

Spa · Governors Island · 5 tips and reviews
Sandra Rubinchik: Saunas, steam rooms, a vichy shower, massages & 2 pools. (Recommend the spa pool in the smaller, quieter courtyard.) It gets kinda crowded and scene-y so I’d go on a weekday or earlier in the morning.
Marie La Rue: Wonderful pampering experience with the best city views. Explore the various rooms from steam to sauna to pure relaxation for a day of r&r.
Cole Kennedy: This place is full of contrasts. Some parts, like the pools and views, are luxurious and impressive. The rest of it feels tacky and juvenile; why do the saunas need themes? Beware: the food sucks.

amNewYork: Another Korean jjimjiilbang, sports a jade-igloo sauna and a diamond-shaped, all-glass steam room. Also on hand: several hot and cold soaking pools and a baked-clay "relax" room.
Jackie Ferrer: OMG BEST BEST BEST spa ever. Hot tubs, saunas, steam rooms, body scrubs, massage rooms. Gotta get a little naked but it's WORTH it. Please do yourself a favor and go here #treatyoself
Justine Ingersoll: Best massage in city! Come early and enjoy the igloo sauna.

Gilt City: Geared to the eco-sensitive and organically aware, the spa offers all-you-can-use cool cucumber water, lush treatment products, an infrared sauna room and a dreamy eucalyptus steam.
Cheapeats Inc: Peace & Serenity under one roof. Chicks only. Dr Hauschka products. Thai Massage & heaven head to toe are my fave.
Emily Schildt: I won't be going back to my cheap neighborhood spa. This place has changed me. Facial with Amity was great. (PS- don't pass on the dried fruit- yum- and sip on the cucumber water.)
That Gurl: Get a massage and enjoy the nice steam sauna, snacks, and resting area.
Spa Week: Try the hot stone massage, and bring a date. The couples room is heavenly! Best part is: The no-tipping policy. Everything's included.

Katie Welch: Margarita will clean every pore. Every. Last. Pore. My skin thanks her.
Bliss: TIP: Let’s be real, those barefoot walks down the beach leave your feet rough and dry. Be sure to snag a bottle of foot patrol to keep in your handbag to keep calluses at bay!

Katherine Corson: Solid infrared sauna, but tucked away in the back of a bar and events space. They have a cold shower but it's not private.
Nikhita Mahtani: Great spa!! Love the infrared and the light. Prepare to sweat all your toxins out! Rose water a nice touch, but sadly no showers.
Valarie McCubbins: try another place

Ranu Rajkarnikar: Pricey but the massages are worth it. Loved my 60 min sports massage with Allegra. Facilities could be nicer, but there is a steam room and sauna.
