Petite Banya
The Grand Banya’s quieter twin — same authentic heat and venik, a calmer room.
The Room
For a more private, peaceful sweat, the Petite Banya is the place. You’ll still reach for the authentic venik — fragrant birch and oak twigs — to massage the skin and drive circulation, but here the room runs quieter; conversations stay muted next door to the communal Grand Banya.
Same heat, same venik — half the volume.
