Circuits are bought online as four-month vouchers and booked by WhatsApp; two-for-one circuits start at about ARS 218,000 for two people, with discounts for bank transfer or cash.
Spa Urbano Kesky
Spa Urbano Kesky in Ramos Mejía, in the western suburbs, calls itself the only urban spa in the zona oeste with a hydrotherapy circuit. The circuit combines a sauna, a Turkish bath and a Finnish bath with a leisure pool, an ozone hot tub and a colour-therapy relaxation room, and is sold alone or in day-spa packages with massages. Mixed sessions run Monday and Wednesday to Sunday; Tuesdays and Saturday mornings are women only.
Tēdelūpulo
Tēdelūpulo opened in Almagro in 2018 and bills itself as Argentina's first beer spa. Its 100 to 140 minute circuits combine a hot tub, a Finnish sauna (dry heat, 70 to 90 °C) infused with hops, a barrel shower, massages, food and free-flowing beer. The sauna is not sold on its own: it comes inside a circuit, most for two people and one for groups of up to 16. Swimwear is required. Open Tuesday to Sunday from 11:00 to midnight; couples' circuits start at ARS 105,000 per person.
Faena Spa
Faena Spa sits inside the Faena Hotel in Puerto Madero and draws on shamanic and South American healing traditions, with plant-based muds, scrubs and oils. Its wet spa includes a hammam and a sauna, alongside massage, Pranic Healing, beauty treatments and yoga or meditation classes. Non-guests can book day-spa packages of three to five hours that combine the wet area and hammam with treatments.

Howard Johnson Plaza Buenos Aires
The Howard Johnson Plaza hotel on Lima has a wellness area with a dry sauna (80 to 90 °C) and a wet Turkish-style sauna kept below 70 °C, plus a massage and relaxation room, a terrace and a gym. The hotel's spa page does not say whether non-guests can buy access, so ask before visiting.
