Sauna Until Eleven, Then 24-Hour Beef Broth on 32nd Street
Two addresses on West 32nd Street hold a bathhouse floor and a 24-hour soup counter. The night runs on heat and broth instead of a bar tab, and the train home is two minutes away.
🗺️ Two Doors On West 32nd Street
♨️ Salt, Clay, And A Hot Pool Until Eleven
The SPA Club fills the fourth floor at 22 West 32nd Street with dry saunas, hot pools, and communal resting floors. Start in the coed Jjimjilbang, where staff-issued cotton uniforms are mandatory to enter the dry salt room and domed red clay room. From there, take the warmth into the gender-separated bath areas, where hot soaking tubs follow Korean custom; nude soaking is traditional, though clean swimsuits are also permitted. Dry saunas and soaking tubs close at 11 PM, while the lounge floor stays open until 11:30 PM. Admission requires a government-issued photo ID at check-in, and guests under 10 are not admitted. All phones and cameras must remain packed away inside locker rooms and bath areas, and once you check out, re-entry is not permitted.
🍲 Broth At Any Hour, Seasoned At The Table
After cooling down and dressing, step out and walk three minutes east along 32nd Street to Gammeeok at 9 West 32nd Street. Up on the second floor, the dining room operates 24 hours daily, though checking ahead on holiday evenings remains wise. The specialty is Seolleongtang, a milky-white ox-bone broth simmered for hours until rich and velvety. The broth arrives entirely unseasoned at your table, accompanied by coarse sea salt, sliced scallions, and fresh kimchi so each diner customizes every spoonful to taste.
🚇 Timing, Tickets, And The Walk To The Train
Plan your evening around the bathhouse schedule: warm up through the salt and red clay saunas, rest in the communal lounge, and step out by eleven for hot beef broth. Online general admission starts at $63 on the venue's booking page, while walk-in desk rates are $70 on weekdays and $90 on weekends and holidays; specific rates vary by treatment bundle and booking date. Herald Square station and the 33rd Street PATH station sit three minutes west on 32nd Street, providing direct subway and PATH connections across Manhattan and New Jersey.
