NEED SAUNA (or steamroom=)

[andcwilly]

I have my own sauna back at home. I really miss it. I now live in the downtown area, near the Lavalle stop on the blue line. I´m looking for somewhere I can go to take a sauna, or steamroom. Anyone know of somewhere in the neighborhood? Thanks!

I was hoping to find a gym with a steamroom, but I did not find one anywhere close. Several of the Megatlons have saunas, though, but I didn't think it was worth it to pay 3 times the cost of my neighborhood gym to go to the Megatlon when I was living on an Argentine salary; that could give you regular access to one, though without paying spa prices.

Somebody recommended to try some of the nicer hotels or spas, that they might have a baño de vapor, though I did not look into it.

There are a few famous saunas in the downtown area that combine old world charm with relaxation.

The best ones are Castelar Hotel Avenida De Mayo and Nueve Del Julio and Colmegna Sarmiento and Diagonal Norte. They are not cheap at 80 pesos to enter but they are exceptionally clean and well run.
