Spa Castle

"Updated & revised review: Ok it's good news that the outdoor pools have reopened, but still at what cost? As always, the so called "Greek style" is so poorly done and just takes away all the fun and relaxation of this place that many of us knew back then. Spa Castle has been my favorite since 2016, but things have changed. I agree that they charge way too much just to enter like why is the spa so greedy? $85 is the price of 2 people for weekdays and $110 for 2 on weekends (keep in mind that they charge taxes which makes the pricing so much worse). Go back to the $40 and $50 please because the new pricing is very stupid and just causes more stress. Kids should not be allowed either because this is a spa, not a public pool or funhouse. Don't mandate slippers or allow the lifeguards to wear their street shoes inside (as I've been hearing from others) since this is very unsanitary and not hygenic. No wonder why the health inspectors shut this place down to begin with (and it will likely happen again with lifeguards wearing street shoes inside and the spa allowing kids). The pricing is basically another way to say that only rich people are allowed, like that 2 part episode of Hotel Hell where Gordon Ramsey went to visit Juniper Hill Inn where the owner was living in an RV and overcharging guests for a nice looking but messy hotel. That's the same case with Spa Castle, where the new owners are behaving in a similar way. Chef Ramsey really needs to go here and experience the same issues that us loyal customers are having and then talk to the owners. I would for sure show up to a gathering if one is hosted during an episode covering this place. If no one goes in and speaks up, then this place is definetly doomed and is in extreme danger of shutting down. I hope that doesn't happen but if Spa Castle is going to continue to behave like this, there's nothing I can do. March 2023 was the last time I came here and will likely be the final if things remain corrupt as it is now. Here are some old pictures of the good old spa (before the new renovation ruined it all):"

"I honestly love the place, but the price increase is sky high. I used to go there with my friends and family. But since the remodeling they have abused the entrance prices too much. They have a low rating of 3 stars. They should consider mediating a reasonable price…"

""I was thrilled to return to Spa Castle in Queens after their renovation, but unfortunately, my experience was a letdown. Despite my excitement, I was disappointed to find that: - Some facilities, like the rooftop pool, were closed without clear notice on their website (the notification was in tiny letters). - The staff was not as friendly as I had expected. - The tanning area had been downgraded from comfortable beds to mere chairs, and people were smoking excessively. - The steam room was frequently interrupted by staff, releasing all the heat that we want to feel. To top it off, they're charging $85 just to access the sauna and Jacuzzi. I felt like I was in a restrictive environment, constantly being monitored and interrupted. I felt I was in jail. Overall, I'm extremely disappointed and won't be recommending Spa Castle to anyone. I don't plan on returning either." I wish I can give zero stars. Don’t come here don’t waste your money. And there are children’s running a lot. And if you’re planning to have a really nice nap. That is not gonna happen because when people buy food, they give them a small device that beeps. When The food is ready. Imagine all these devices beeping constantly, and me trying to get a really nice nap and that never happened. Very disappointed."

"Under new management and painted a new blue and white color but still a good time. I recommend going during the weekday when it's less crowded. I love the indoor and outdoor pools. Remember 3 drink maximum."

"I visited Spa Castle in 2016, and it was an unforgettable experience! The variety of pools, saunas, and relaxation areas provided a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The facilities were immaculate, and the ambiance was incredibly serene, making it easy to unwind and rejuvenate. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. I'm thrilled to see that Spa Castle is back, and I can't wait to visit again and enjoy all the wonderful amenities they offer. Highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in a day of pampering and relaxation!"
