Chicago Sweatlodge

The Chicago Sweatlodge offers a traditional sauna experience in a clean and welcoming environment. The sauna is hot, and the cold plunge is icy, providing a refreshing contrast. This community-oriented spot is a great place to relax and unwind, with amenities like a food bar and massage services. Guests can feel comfortable being themselves in this judgment-free zone. Open on Saturdays starting at 7 AM, it's a perfect way to start the weekend. However, recent reviews suggest some areas for improvement. Maintenance of the facilities, such as the shower water pressure and temperature controls, needs attention. The back patio has become an issue, with concerns about smoking and the overall cleanliness. The staff's presence in maintaining the cleanliness of the floor has also been noted as lacking. Despite these concerns, the facility is still praised for its simple design, wonderful saunas, and great food. The staff is also commended for their friendliness and accommodating nature. The cold plunge temperature is an ongoing issue, and the owners are encouraged to address it, as it is an integral part of the sauna experience.
