City Sweats - Wallingford

I can’t recommend City Sweats enough! My boyfriend and I have been members for over two years, and it’s become such an essential part of our wellness routine. The staff are so kind, thoughtful, and attentive — they always go above and beyond (like pre-prepping my cabin with my favorite aroma mist). They’re also consistently accommodating and understanding, which makes every visit such a great experience. City Sweats offers multiple cabin sizes, and all of them get really hot (upwards of 168°F out of the 175°F max). They used to have a large sauna that didn’t heat up quite as much (as another reviewer mentioned), but it’s been replaced — and the new large cabin seems to get even hotter than the smaller ones! Each session lasts 45 minutes, which I’ve found to be the perfect amount of time. They also offer treatments like a lymphatic drainage machine, red light therapy, and a cold plunge + sauna contrast option — all of which I love to rotate between depending on my mood. The relaxation room, alkaline water station, and wellness shots make each visit even better. City Sweats has truly become an essential part of my self-care routine — I always leave feeling refreshed, relaxed, and reset.

I had a restful and restorative time here, thanks to CJ and their guidance! They helped me feel so comfortable and at ease, explained things clearly so I could make the most of my time with the sauna and red light therapy. Special kudos to the delicious cold tea and the relaxation room with cool sand to wiggle your toes in! Would love to see a bigger towel option provided to accommodate more diverse bodies.

I’ve always wanted to try City Sweats and with the weather taking a frosty turn, it felt like the perfect excuse to check out their Wallingford location. Plus, their $35 introductory special for a 60-minute infrared sauna session sealed the deal. The customer service was top-notch! (Shoutout to the guy at the front desk whose name I forgot—sorry! You were awesome, though!) He even offered us complimentary wellness shots before our session. We chose the turmeric shot for joint and inflammation relief. The facility itself is beautiful, and if you’re going with someone else—or just want to starfish out—I highly recommend getting a larger sauna cabin. My husband and I booked one that seats up to seven people, which meant we could lie down and fully relax. Trust me, once the sweat starts pouring, you’ll appreciate the extra room. Bonus: our sauna had Bluetooth capabilities, so you can curate your own sweaty soundtrack. Just don’t forget to bring a lot of water—or better yet, bring a water bottle to fill up on their alkaline ph balanced filtered water. You’ll need it! The cabins have cool light therapy options, too, which supposedly offer different health benefits. The setup is unique: your sauna is inside what feels like a private fabric-walled tent. It's cozy and strangely zen. After our session, we got to chill out in the relaxation room. Imagine walking barefoot on cool soft white sand in your own little curtained nook, sipping cold tea, and munching on a tangerine. Best way to cool down after sweating buckets. All in all, this place nailed the art of relaxation. I’ll definitely be back this winter and highly recommend checking it out.

City Sweats in Wallingford has been an absolute game-changer for me. The staff is always so sweet, polite, and friendly. They make you feel genuinely welcome every single time. Also, you get a tonic shot when you first come in. Everything is always prepared and ready, and the space is spotlessly clean with such a calm, positive vibe. I have the unlimited sauna membership, and it truly feels like a luxury treat every time I go. After my sauna session, I love unwinding in the relaxation lounge. They always offer me an orange and a cup of tea, which makes the whole experience feel extra thoughtful and special. On top of that, the sauna itself has been incredible for me, especially with my neck issues. It’s made such a noticeable difference. Every visit leaves me feeling relaxed, refreshed, and cared for. I honestly can’t recommend City Sweats enough!

City Sweats is a cozy and clean oasis of wellness and relaxation, and the staff is genuinely welcoming. I very much look forward to starting off my day in the warmth and glow of their saunas and red light during the chilly and grey winters, and you should too!

I went here with a friend of mine and it was probably the BEST experience I’ve had since I moved to Seattle 4 years ago. The ambiance is so peaceful and the temperature of the sauna was perfect for a good sweat. We had to remove our shoes before entering the sauna cabin area which made me feel comfortable and that they kept the place clean. Before you enter, you can choose to purchase a "shot" of a juice, which carries various health benefits. I opted for the one with cayenne, which guarantees a detoxifying sweat. They also offer refreshing 9.5pH water at anytime during your session, and after a good sweat, you can shower in the private shower area. There’s also a recovery area in the back with candles and sand on the floor and beautiful art on the walls you can gaze at as you daydream. Highly highly recommended to refresh yourself from work or battling Seattle traffic!

This was such a good experience!! So relaxing & i love having that vibe of being in your own little space during your session. Plus, the relaxation room filled with sand to sink your toes into & the tea they give you after was so wonderful. I’ll definitely be back!
