Details last checked

Akari Sauna's Greenpoint location is a membership-only, Japanese-inspired neighbourhood sauna at 149 Franklin St in Brooklyn, with two communal dry saunas, cold plunges and cold showers, and changing rooms that are not separated by gender. Entry is limited to members and accompanied guests — there are no walk-ins, trials or day passes — visits are capped at two hours, and the studio publishes no sauna or cold-plunge temperature and no price for its waitlist-only Unlimited tier.

How it compares in New York

It does not publish a plunge temperature (8 of the 34 New York studios we track do) — worth asking when you book. Communal access puts it with 23 of the 34 studios we track here; the rest run a different model.
