Umvelt | Sauna & Cold Plunge Opening in Downtown Bozeman

Update 4/18/2025

The name for the urban bathhouse opening in downtown Bozeman has been changed to Umvelt. After a trademarking issue, they decided to change the name from Melt House to Umvelt. The name Umvelt is a play on the German word Umwelt, which translates as "sense world".  

According to the founder, "the bathhouse experience is all about tapping into my senses, and I love this concept that every organism and person, for that matter has their own Umvelt. We are creating a space for our community members to feel what’s real to them and share the experience with others if they so choose."

This is going to be a great addition to Bozeman's business scene, we can't wait to check it out.

We often hear of new businesses opening up downtown, but here’s one that really stands out. Melt House, an urban bathhouse, will be opening its doors this winter in downtown Bozeman.

Located at 22 South Grand, Melt House is located between the Lark Hotel and Summit Bike and Ski.

Melt House is inspired by Banya, a traditional Russian bathhouse that involves heat, cold, and other rituals. The vision behind Melt House is to create a serene, adult-oriented space that offers a “third space” outside of bars and restaurants for Bozeman residents and visitors to gather. There will be saunas, a cold plunge, a steam room, and a pool as well as a café. The space will be limited to adults 18 and over.

Single entry will be available, as well as punch passes, memberships, and entry during special events. Pricing has not been set, but you can follow Melt House on Instagram or Facebook for updates.
