Having been to Hammam Spa many years ago and remembering the great experience; my lovely beau and I decided to check it out again on my birthday last week. We treated ourselves to a Turkish Hammam bath treatment as it seemed fitting to bring in my new year feeling cleansed, relaxed and purified.
We arrived an hour prior to our appointment to enjoy the hammam and were greeted by a lovely receptionist who gave us a quick refresher of the spa. Since our appointment was on a weekday mid day we pretty much had the whole spa and hammam to ourselves, which I loved.
I didn't know what to expect of the bath since we've never had a Turkish bath before but it was a nice experience to share with my love. It was a lot shorter than the 1 hr 10 mins. it was suppose to be so I doubt we'll try it again but the attendants were very informative during the treatment.
Although I loved the way it made my skin feel afterwards we won't be returning. Some of the reviews I read here turned out to be true even though I was really hoping it wouldn't. The hammam did smell funky at some points and we both ended up sick a day after. Coincidence much??
