Spa and wellness: what the hotel does — and doesn't — offer
InterContinental New York Times Square does not operate a dedicated spa or pool; instead it offers spa-inspired bathrooms in guest rooms and a 24-hour fitness center on the third floor. Other wellness services are limited to in-room amenities, fitness access (no extra charge) and concierge help arranging off-site treatments.

Guest-room wellness features

Those in-room features are the primary wellness offering built into accommodations rather than a separate spa. The property includes many room types — for example, Premium Room, Corner; Classic Room; and Junior Suite (Midtown View) — and most list rain showers in their bathroom descriptions.
Accessible-room variants are available (the hotel has 31 accessible rooms) and some accessible bathrooms include roll-in or bench showers; if you need a specific layout request the reservation desk or front desk can confirm availability before arrival.
