Buckstaff Bathhouse
A traditional bathhouse on Bathhouse Row that has offered baths continuously since 1912, with thermal water piped in from the park's springs. The classic package moves guests through a private whirlpool tub, sitz tub, steam cabinet and hot packs, with an optional short massage. Baths are walk-in only, and men and women are served on separate floors.
Hotel Hale
A nine-suite boutique hotel in the 1892 Hale Bathhouse, the oldest building on Bathhouse Row. Every suite has a large soaking tub filled with thermal water piped from the park's springs, so soaking is for overnight guests only. The ground floor holds Eden, a restaurant with a living wall and full bar.
