Hamam en Rasul

Our experienced hamam experts know every step of an authentic hamam ritual — and you’ll notice the difference. A visit to the hamam always begins in our Eastern bathhouse with a steam bath. Afterwards, you take your place on a warm stone table.

The ritual begins with a scrub, where the Tellak (hamam therapist) uses a special rough silk glove (called a kese) to remove dead skin cells. After a rinse with warm water, your body is lathered with Hamimi soap and a traditional foam bag. Your body slips into a deep state of relaxation. You are then rinsed again with warm water.

The hamam ritual concludes with Turkish tea and lokum (Turkish delight).

Take a seat in the beautiful Rasul room and let yourself be carried away by the story of the Berber people and their traditions.

You begin this ritual with a delightful scrub using Moroccan Argan oil. Then, you apply natural mineral clay to your body and take your place in the Rasul room. The steam keeps the clay moist, allowing the powerful active ingredients to do their work. The combination of clay and steam removes toxins, impurities, and dead skin cells while replenishing your body with beneficial minerals — a true treat for your skin.

As you sit beneath the sparkling starry sky, you’ll be immersed in a wonderful scent experience, and it will feel as though the warm desert wind is touching your skin. A warm shower will rinse the clay from your body. Finally, you'll refresh your face with rose water and nourish your skin with an Argan body cream.

We conclude this oriental journey with a delicious cup of Turkish tea and lokum.
