Last night a girlfriend and I had our first hammam experience at the Medina center. We absolutely loved it. Our French is catastrophic, so we were grateful for the helpfulness and patience of the whole staff. We were given (hot from the printer) instructions in English, which we tried our best to memorize since we were leaving our glasses in the locker. . The instructions are also posted in French downstairs. We were handed a numbered bracelet, two Turkish bath towels (blue and orange), a regular terrycloth hand towel, a robe, rubber sandals, a container of black soap, and a scrub mitt. There is a distinct routine with lots of steps. 1.Change into robe and slippers. Take the blue bath towel, the hand towel and the scrubby mitt downstairs. 2.Give your numbered bracelet to scrub staff. 3. Shower and soap up. The soap doesn't lather, it's more like a salve. Do not rinse the soap. 4. Relax in hamman (and sauna) for up to 40 minutes and let the soap work it's magic. 5. Rinse soap off in shower, then lie on hot stone. We were given new numbered bracelets once we laid on the hot stone. They will call this new number when it's your turn for the scrub. 6.Get scrubbed. They will rinse you off. 7.A trip to the cold plunge pool. It's really cold. 8.If you are getting the oil rub, take another shower. Wash (or at least wet) your hair. 9 Head upstairs, retrieve your orange massage towel from the locker and head into the relaxation room. Give relaxation room staff your number and lie down until your number is called. 10. Enjoy oil massage. 11. Get dressed and head out for tea and snack. I list these steps because it was confusing for us our first time. We got lots of help from staff and friendly clientele and vowed to return now that we know what we are doing. The facilities are clean, spacious, and friendly. Loved the "female space vibe," and saw lots of groups of women of all ages. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Swimsuits are required, though many of women were topless and since you take off your top for the scrub and the massage, next time I'll just wear my bikini bottoms. If you are a more private person, no worries, there were plenty of women wearing tops our one piece suits. My friend wore a one piece, and she just pulled the top part down to her hips for scrub and massage. Since we signed up as a duo, we were scrubbed and massaged at the same time. They are VERY thorough during the scrub and massage, which is different from the experiences I've had in the U.S. The oil massage included face, scalp, and breasts. Honestly, it was fantastic and I'm probably ruined forever for the much more chaste Napa Valley massage. The fee for each of us was 69 euros and we were there for almost four hours. A really good value.mI'm in Paris for six more months and am already planning to go back next week and figuring out a way to budget a visit as a weekly expense!

Great scrub, eucalyptus steam room, sauna, hot tiled area and cold pool all amazing. I felt massage wasn’t really worth it as it was more of just a rub down with oil. Overall a very cool experience.

So cool but NOT so accurate in cleaning the body + very expensive 31 Euro per gomach and very dry towel they must use comfort to make it so soft please . The lady Smira was good but Not excellent.

I have been visiting today the Medina Hammam and it was an excellent experience that I can recommend to any one! The Hammam itself is very clean and has a very nice atmosphere with Moroccan tiles and Moroccan multi-colored lamps. The staff is extremely friendly and professional. The scrub was very thoroughly done and the massage was amazing! It was a full body massage including the head, the face and the tummy. And what's best is the perfumed almond oil that still lingers on my skin. They have both a steam room and a sauna and a pool. The water in the pool could have been a bit warmer but maybe it needs to be like this in order to be able to cool down after the steam-room and the sauna. The relaxing room is not only very beautiful but also very quiet and nice. As is the tea-room where I drank the best Moroccan tea in my whole life and ate a very delicious sweet! I put back maybe the calories I lost in the sauna but it was definitively worth it! :) I have to say it was all very well organized and despite of the fact that it was Friday evening and there were many ladies there, I did not have to wait long at all. The guests were also very nice and all chatted in a friendly atmosphere. It is a wonderful way to relax after a hard day/week at work and i will definitively return. The best Hammam ever!

I have been to that hamman for many years and I have never been disappointed. Everything is always smooth and everyone is friendly. The place is clean and the price is affordable. Highly recommended!! Update: I removed a star cause they did some changed that I don't like. You don't apply the black soap yourself. You get it once when you get the massage. They remodeled the cold shower. It is not as cold anymore.

Overall I like this place. The steam bath is relaxing and the gommage is great. The massage is more like a relaxation massage, not a deep tissue or pressure massage. I realized going there on Friday is a bad idea because there were way too many people. I wasn't able to get into a sauna. The staff are very nice. Front desk staff either speak English or try to. The staff at the hammam section speaks no English. It's better to speak and understand basic French so that you won't feel lost.

We've been there twice. It's a good experience. I believe that it's for ladies only except on Saturdays when both males and females are allowed.

Great place, cosy relaxing vibes, the staff is friendly, the options to do in the spa are really nice (sauna, hammam, gommage, massage). It is crouded usually on weekends but it's a really good place to spend quality time and treat yourself

A very pleasant visit, would visit again. Recommend going when it first opens if you're going on the weekend, as it gets crowded fast. We were done by the time it got really busy.

Good but not clean. The hammam staff are lovely. The rest of the staff is a bit distracted and not very friendly.

The place excellent isnot my first time. Was not crowded. The lady doing the massage excelente as well as the lady of the scrub.

Had a great time at the hammam! Our visit lasted about 2 hours (no massage) and everyone was super friendly and helpful despite the fact that we didn’t speak much French. I will definitely be recommending this place to others who visit France.

To be honest I’ve never been to a Hammam before but I really enjoyed this one. I went there for Valentine’s Day and the decorations were great, the stuff was nice and especially the manager-owner, he is very kind and cares about the visitors. Merci beaucoup from Greece.
