Roosevelt Baths & Spa

Oct 2024

Located in the heart of Saratoga Springs, New York, the Roosevelt Baths have been a sanctuary for healing and rejuvenation for years. The Experience: As soon as I checked in, I was asked to choose an aromatherapy option for my bath. After changing, I waited in a calm relaxation room with tea and snacks until my name was called. The atmosphere was peaceful, setting the tone for the experience. The bath itself was deeply relaxing. One thing that surprised me was how deep the tub was--I wasn't expecting that. I remember wondering if the minerals would make the bath feel different, like maybe there would be some tingling, but it felt like a regular bath. The ambiance of the bathhouse was serene, with soothing music and dim lighting that really enhanced the relaxation. I've even shared my experience on YouTube, you can check out my full experience and get a feel for the vibes here: It was interesting to learn that, back in the day, a bath here cost just $1.25, whereas now it's around $64. It's a bit expensive for a bath, so I'd say it's great for a one-time experience. However, I think the staff could do a better job of educating customers about the benefits of the mineral water--what it does and why it works--so we can actually understand the impact it has. It would be even better if they shared testimonials from long-term clients about how it's improved their lives. Pro Tips: 1. Enter the park through the Avenue of the Pines to avoid the $10 parking fee. 2. Check out the nearby creek--it's a gorgeous spot! Last time I visited, I set up a surprise picnic for our anniversary there. You can ask the staff at the front desk about it. For me, it's exciting to know the history behind Roosevelt Baths and to experience something that people in the past believed would heal their bodies and that once provided a natural luxury experience to everyday New Yorkers.

The mineral bath at the Roosevelt Bath & Spa is a special treat! The water is effervescent and so full of minerals you float. A wonderful experience. They shared some of the story and history behind the park and the spa. Seems there used to be a part that had more public baths. Perhaps it's time to bring back that feature!

I already thought this experience was incredible and Jacqueline was outstanding and would give more than 5 stars but then I left something in the pocket of a robe and they went OUT OF THEIR WAY to look for it AND call me and tell me they did so!! Above and beyond through and through- from an extremely polite and kind and accommodating booking experience (and progressive- they asked whether my husband and I had the same last name- and we don't!), to being as flexible and accommodating as they could be when we wanted to add on a service, to a lovely and relaxing experience onsite. Super attentive and helpful without being over the top. Cannot express my gratitude enough...read full review
