Hammam & sauna

Hammam

A visit to the Hammam is beneficial not only for its intense body-cleansing effects but has also been traditionally cherished as a social occasion. Here at the Stadtbad however, tranquility and relaxation are paramount. Therefore, we kindly ask our guests not to engage in conversation in the Hammam area and to refrain from using mobile phones, iPads, etc. in the relaxation room.

The Hammam ritual

After showering, warming on the hot stone and sweating in the steam bath, your skin is ready for deep cleansing with a Kese (exfoliating glove) and traditional olive oil soap. This is also the best moment for a Tellak massage on the warm marple table, lasting 50 minutes. Book the treatment here. Afterwards you can enjoy the sauna, a refreshing foot bath, and the mist shower and finally indulge in a body wrap with our healing chalk from northern Germany.

Tea and snacks in our relaxation room are the crowning conclusion to the Hammam ritual. Please allow yourself at least two to three hours for your Hammam visit.

We provide you with:

• A thin cotton towel, known as a Pestemal, which you wear wrapped around your body during the entire Hammam ritual (the Pestemal replaces the swimsuit)
• A sauna towel to sit on in the sauna (in the sauna, clothing is not worn)
• An exfoliating glove, the Kese, to cleanse your body in the exfoliation niche
• A cup of healing chalk for the final body wrap
• Body lotion
• A bathrobe for your hour in the relaxation room
• Shower gel and shampoo are provided in the showers
