We annually come to Albq.to fly fiesta. It has become "tradition" for the ladies to take a break and head for the bathhouse. We have always left in a limp noodle state and enjoyed our experience! The relaxing qualities of the old tubs is possibly my favorite. I was told years ago, that this was the location of the cowboys bathhouse back in the day, which makes it even more interesting to me. Nothing fancy but clean & relaxing.
My husband and I booked a co-ed soak (tubs beside each other) and herbal wrap of lavender, peppermint and rosemary. Excellent! The bath was perfect (you could keep it really hot or add cold mineral spring water to cool to your preference). The herbal wrap was very hot (a little too got for me but the lady suggested sticking one arm out and that helped). You can't be claustrophobic and do the wrap. I would highly recommend both the soak and the wrap. My husband even loved it!
I was visiting New Mexico to see my girlfriend and she suggested we go here. It was a great experience. The staff was very nice. First we had an hour massage. Then we soaked in tubs for 25 minutes. Then we had a wrap for 25 minutes. I felt so relaxed when I left. The massage was wonderful as was the soak and the wrap. Definitely recommend this place.
We live in Santa Fe, and today we made the trip to the Jemez Springs Bath House. It was wonderful! The massage by Audrey was as good as you will get anywhere. She quickly found the tight, troublesome spots and worked on them until they were feeling better. The soaking in mineral water, I guess, was helpful, but next time I will stick to a massage. The entire facility was clean and well-maintained, but the area for the mineral bath had the look and feel of a 1950s Communist facility: long on functionality, but short on luxury. The staff was friendly, helpful and professional, and the price is right. It was definitely a trip I will remember for a long time. One other thing: the drive through Los Alamos and the Jemez Mountains is spectacular.
I was having a stress week and day. Booked a soak, wrap and massage - best ever! I would definitely make the drive from Albuquerque to Jemez just for me. It is about a hour to get there and well worth the trip. Very affordable. Sara is the best for massage!
Friendly and helpful staff and expert masseurs. Located in scenic Jemez Valley. Cafes and local fare close by.
We were driving from Taos and came upon this bathhouse. We went in and had to wait 20 min in order for them to accommodate all of us. But they were able to accommodate us without any reservation. It was nice and relaxing. Clean. The staff was chilled out and friendly. I would strongly recommend a bath as well as their herbal wraps and other services. The scenery is lovely -- after a bath take a walk around. It's heavenly.
We made reservations for the day after Thanksgiving. We did the 50-minute soak and herbal wrap; and the 25-minute soak, herbal wrap and massage; total less than $150. It's a not-for-profit set up by the city, and the staff are very pleasant. Somewhat Spartan, but unpretentious and good value. Highly recommended.
The mineral soak was great, very relaxing, but the massage I had by Sheree was possibly the best massage I've ever had and I have had a LOT of bodywork done over the years! Can't recommend her highly enough!
This town bathhouse is o.k. as they go — but you will be indoors, in an actual tub. This is not at all the same as going to one of the springs that feature outdoor pools fed by the hot springs for you to sit in and enjoy. If you just want the tub experience along with some other Spa offerings, this will do. I recommend, however, you get out and enjoy the outdoor springs sites around town.
