My family has been…read moreresearching the benefits of cold plunges recently, and we decided that January is as good a time as any to take the plunge (pun intended). We are thrilled to have stumbled upon Paul & Rebekah at Uptown Sauna House. They are both welcoming, with good energy. They have created this sweet space with intention and care. Three different tubs with varying temperatures (cold, colder, coldest), one of the tubs easily fits two if you don't want to suffer alone. Everything is spotless, it's very apparent they have high cleanliness/hygiene standards. Added touches: *It's the PNW and it's always wet, they had non-slip mats. *Shower had good pressure and temperature controls, along with body wash, shampoo, conditioner. *Water station to refill bottles *Towel hooks & bins to store personal items *Easy/free street parking

5/5: Efficient, private, and exactly what I needed for a spontaneous sauna session!…read more I booked this on impulse during spring break, Wednesday at 2:30pm, and rated it 5/5 based on how quick and easy the booking process was through the Mindbody app Deals section, just a few hours in advance. The experience itself was equally efficient and sufficient. Think of it like a deli style, quick in & out sauna and cold plunge experience without the extra bells and whistles of a traditional spa. I reserved the Contrast Therapy Suite 2 XL, which includes a sauna, cold plunge (metal bath tub), and standing shower, $95 for 60 minutes. The suite also has a bench, hooks, and a shelf for belongings, so no locker is needed. You get the entire private suite to yourself or your group, up to 4 people. It's comfortable for 3 to lie down in the sauna, and spacious enough for 4 seated. The cold bath and shower are one person at a time. There is a speaker to connect your phone for music, though pairing did not work for me. There is also a remote control for different color lighting, which adds a nice touch. I would describe the "cold plunge" more accurately as a cold soak, since it is a bathtub rather than a standing ice plunge. That said, I really appreciated the full privacy of the suite. You don't have to move between shared spaces, and you can fully relax, even be completely nude if you choose, which my husband especially appreciated for his first experience. The facility itself is compact: - 4 single sauna rooms (no shower, and I was told it's recommended to wait at least 30 minutes before showering after sauna) - 2 private Contrast Therapy suites Suite 1 fits up to 2 people seated in the sauna with red infrared, and is ideal for one person if you want to lie down comfortably. Cold bath and shower are also one at a time. Andrea was the staff member during my visit, friendly, helpful, and welcoming. It is on the pricier side for a 60 minute session without a steam room, but I truly value the efficiency, simplicity, and privacy, especially for those who are always on the go. Parking: free, unlimited street parking on most streets around the studio. They offer memberships and intro packages depending on your needs. I would definitely return when I want sauna access without planning days or weeks ahead like traditional spas. I would book Suite 1 for solo use on my next visit, or Suite 2 XL again if sharing the space privately with friends. A great option when you want a straightforward, no-fuss sauna experience on your own schedule.

The girls who run the place are very sweet and the costs are about what you'd see elsewhere. Highly recommend!

Let me first start by saying the "spa" here should have its own yelp because a lot of these reviews…read moreare for the medical procedures which are misleading to really how terrible this place is claiming to be a top spa. Now, maybe I am just used to the TRUE luxury spas like in Scottsdale, AZ or Southern California but if people here think this is a luxury spa you have not really been to one. First, upon arrival it is clear they want to push their med spa and procedures there was nothing but advertisements, creams, and marking for that in your face everywhere you turned. After checking in, the woman said she would give me a tour, she led me to a glass door that was supposed to be an outdoor patio and said I could use it if I wanted some sun, I looked out to see a broken fountain, a mess of chairs thrown about, and nothing relaxing or enticing that made me want to go out there. Next, she led me down the stairs to the soaking pool, cold dip, etc. I booked this place for one reason. I am recovering from an injury and wanted to soak in a hot tub, sauna, etc. While it was visually pleasing in that particular part, but then she said "and today since it is so hot out, we have the soaking pool at am ambient temperature." Like what do you mean ambient? I was thinking to myself that thing better be a VERY warm ambient. When walking out she pointed to some neglected pedicure chairs in the corner and said these are nice to sit in and get a massage and are heated. I thought that was strange because the chairs were stained and had clearly not been used in a while and you had to climb up a huge stone step like you would if you were getting a spa pedi just to use them. It was like they were trying to pass them off as something nice but really should be taken out! Next, we went into the locker rooms, now when I go to the spa, I bring a swimsuit, and a fresh change of clothes and my makeup to freshen up after. The lockers were the size of piggy banks, and I had to cram my stuff in so tight, it would barely lock and upon opening everything fell out. There are no hooks ANYWHERE, I had to put my robe on the dirty ground after getting into my swimsuit because there was no where to hang it, or a towel once you were getting dressed and undressed. Anyway, she said she would turn on the jets to the soaking pool and bring me some paperwork to sign. She never did either. I put my suit on with my now dirty gross robe, and sandals that were enormous. I couldn't wait to get in the pool and I step in and it is absolutely freezing. Like ice cold bath water. This is what she meant by ambient. Like on your website you say it is 103 degrees, this was maybe 85 degrees. I was so upset. The entire reason I came and I am now teeth chattering cold. I get out of the pool and go into the sauna to warm up. It is also turned down so low that I crank up the temp to 105 degrees and it took forever to heat up. Now I am soaked and damp, and even more uncomfortable than when I arrived. I went back to the locker room, took off my wet suit and changed into dry undergarments for my massage and thought I would try to warm up in the heated massage pedi chairs she pointed out. I sit down and push the massage and literally thought my brain was going to get shook out of my head. It just vibrates at a scale that is NOT comfortable. I just shut it off and honestly almost left at that point. Fifteen minutes after my massage was supposed to start, this massage therapist huffs around the corner and says my name. She literally has a mullet, the biggest N95 White mask on I have ever seen and NO SHOES! Like what in the actual F! One thing is for sure, if you are wanting a "stay weird" Portland spa, y'all have found it! We go into this weird doctors treatment room, nothing calming, relaxing or spa vibes at all. It's very bright in there, and I tell her I want light pressure, and I had to tell her three times to lighten it up. I HATE massage therapists that use their elbows, and whole arms, and sh** like they are digging into you. I just want something relaxing not where I am grunting for you to stop! I had also asked for the hot oil head massage. After my 60 minutes, she didn't say anything about it, didn't offer it, and honestly I was at this point thinking I am at the threshold of hell. I just wanted to get out of there. I went back to the locker room, and because they offer no bags for your wet clothes like most spas, my suit had soaked my entire bag and I left in wet soppy clothes. The one nice thing is the girl working the front desk noticed how displeased and offered to take off the $25 for the spa facilities but honestly this place is an epic joke, trying to pass off as luxury. Do not waste your time, or energy here.

I tried to message Dr. Becker with no response at all. I made a second appointment and he didn't show up for the appointment. His front desk staff, who seem pretty clueless, didn't even realize he wasn't in the building. They tried calling him to no avail. At this point, it was 20 minutes past my appointment time. I told them I would never come back, it was so ridiculous. Some of the most unprofessional behavior I have ever encountered. I did receive an apologetic email from Dr. Becker, but he didn't even have a valid excuse. He was just on a trip and forgot to check his email for Monday appointments. I would advise looking elsewhere for a ND. It's also a strange experience to be in a waiting room with people who are in bathing suits and bathrobes as they also have a hot tub/soaking tub and are a wellness center.

I had read up about the place so I knew the locker rooms were coed, but I was still confused as to whether there were changing rooms or what was the proper etiquette. Place is small and I understand the price is more moderate compared to other spas, but you feel nickel and dimed. Everything is extra, you don't even get complimentary tea. The masseuses were amazing, no complaints there, but when we tried to tip and asked if 100% goes to the masseuse, they said 25% goes to the spa and 75% to the masseuse. I'm sorry, what? Very unethical considering that structure is not transparent at all. The massages were amazing so it's a shame they're not getting their fair share.

The rest of the spa experience and atmosphere was lacking for me. The space was very small and felt crowded. The waiting area was very uncomfortable. It is a small bench right next to the check in desk and was not a relaxing place to wait. The locker room was co-ed which I was not expecting and was also crowded. I didn't know where to change. The floors of the locker room were all wet and it felt damp. It didn't but feel like a nice relaxing spa experience. The sauna area was crowded. Only 3 chairs to hangout in which were occupied most of the time. There was a charge for tea which is usually complimentary in a spa experience. I ended up leaving before my 2 hours for the sauna experience because it was not relaxing and the vibe was not enjoyable. Overall it felt cramped, crowded, damp, and a let down from what was shown on the website.

I had the chance to visit both Knot Springs and Cascada Thermal Springs + Hotel... and let's just…read moresay....they are not in the same league. Knot Springs? It's giving upgraded gym vibes. Think 24 Hour Fitness, but make it wellness. Hot tub, steam, sauna... clean, simple, and the staff are genuinely great. No complaints there. But the experience itself? It's just... basic. Cascada, on the other hand, is a whole different level. The comparison honestly feels like Spirit vs Delta, Holiday Inn vs The Ritz, Nissan vs Lexus. Once you've experienced that level of intention, design, and atmosphere, it's hard to go back. Knot Springs isn't bad, it's just not that. If you're looking for a straightforward soak, it'll do the job. But if you're chasing an elevated, immersive wellness experience... you might leave wanting more.

Then take the elevator to the 5th floor where the spa is. When you get a massage you walk through yet another area. The layout was very odd and pieced together. - The spa is entirely too small. It was crowded on a Sunday afternoon and LOUD. They should have limits on how many people can be in there because it was crowded and honestly not relaxing. - The soaking pools were metal which was weird and uncomfortable. - The massages were in a literal tent... I felt like I was going camping outside. For the amount you pay this was STRANGE. Also zero music and people were loud again in the hallway. PROS - The massage was great and the masseuse did a good job. - The view... kind of? You are looking at traffic and cars the whole time which is not relaxing but the city is kind of cool. - Staff was friendly. Probably wouldn't recommend this place and won't be coming back.

Tranquility is the word that comes to mind when you stay here. There was a very large group of homeschoolers for some type of retreat but they were all very well mannered and not rowdy at all in comparison to other experiences we have had with large kid groups staying in the same hotel as us.
