Moroccan Hammam
An authentic Marrakesh bathhouse in Brooklyn — handmade Moroccan tiles, earthy scents and a warm, airy steam.
The Room
Step into the Moroccan Hammam and you’re transported to a Marrakesh bathhouse — complete with the musky, earthy scents of Morocco. Handmade, brightly colored tiles, imported from Morocco, cover the walls, the benches and the central belly stone.
The room is airy and bright, and carries less humidity than the Turkish Hammam — so the heat feels a touch gentler, a little less intense. A shower sits inside the room, ready whenever you want to cool down mid-session or before you head out to your cold plunge or snow room.
Though cooler than our saunas and banyas — 85–125°F at around 80% humidity — the Moroccan Hammam delivers the same restorative benefits with a softer heat.
