Hammam des Bains du Marais

Absolutely incredible and luxurious spa experience. The facility is so nicely designed and cleanly kept. The progression from steam sauna, exfoliation, massage and cool plunge and ice room were the perfect escape from the hot spell in the Paris summer (though it’d be great anytime of the year). The staff is so accommodating and made sure we enjoyed the most of our experience. It’s a bit pricey, but well worth the service and experience and I would certainly go back next time I’m in Paris.

On level -2, there’s a small but clean dry sauna and a fairly spacious Turkish bath—both function well and serve their purpose. There was jelly inside the Turkish bath with camphor and other aromatic spices to rub it into your skin. However, anything involving humidity, like the Turkish bath and showers, had a noticeable moldy smell. It wasn’t overwhelming, but definitely present. The relaxation area on the same floor didn’t meet my expectations. It’s quite dark, with damp couches and poor air circulation. Between sessions, I found myself heading up to level -1 just to get some fresh air and breathe more comfortably. We paid 50 euro/person on a Sunday evening (weekend price).

I found out about this spa through a recommendation and I was really surprised, it's a wonderful and very comfortable place, I was very well received from the moment I booked my reservation until the time I left!

I put 5 starts so people would actually read this review, but it’s A huge -10. Honestly very disappointing experience. The sauna is super small and the baths are filled with people yelling the whole time. On top of that the scrub that we received was 10 minutes instead of 30 I felt like I was a car being run through a car wash, and not a nice one. At the price they charge I was really expecting a much better experience. Oh and it just felt dirty and the cushions smelt like mold, I wish I had the courage to leave without paying.

I was very disappointed with the deep facial I received. I booked a 60 min treatment expecting a professional and thorough session, but the experience fell far short: the cleansing was superficial, the therapist left the room for long periods, and the treatment mostly involved applying creams and a mask without proper deep cleansing. The room was cramped, poorly ventilated, and smelled unpleasant, and the restroom was unhygienic. I also felt uncomfortable with the therapist’s behavior during the treatment. Overall, the service was unprofessional and did not justify the €95 price. Update: I already emailed about my experience and got no reply. now I receive the same automatic apology everyone gets. The facial was unacceptable in both hygiene and professionalism. I expect proper follow-up and a refund or compensation. Charging €95 for such a poor treatment? No hesitation. Customer service that actually goes beyond a generic apology? Clearly not!

My partner and I each booked a 50-minute deep tissue massage. Mine was pretty good— firm pressure, professional and kind masseuse. My partner however, got started 10 minutes late and ended 10 minutes early (30 minutes of massage in total) and was really just slathered in oil with zero pressure, claiming it was the worst massage she’d ever had. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend this place and won’t go again.

I hate to write bad reviews… but I found the experience disappointing. The staff was very nice, though the services - pregnancy massage and facial - are not at the standing, or level, of their (high) price. I paid 170 euros for a 50 minutes massage and a 30 minutes facial. The massage was shorten by 10 minutes without explanation, she forgot to do my other arm, someone showed up in the room in the middle of the massage, and we could hear all what was going on next door (bikini hair removal, sic.). At some point she was checking her phone, the skull massage was a joke, and I did the last half of the pregnancy massage flat on the back… to eventually discover, later during the facial, that the table could actually lift the upper part, which would have really helped me breath better. The facial had no interest what so ever, no explanation or extra care, and I kept getting product in the eyes. The place is very well-redesigned, furnished and the atmosphere is clean and nice. But I wouldn’t come back, and I wouldn’t recommend the place either. Sorry…

Leila was super helpful even tho I didn’t speak French. She helped me book the scrub and Hammam. And it was very refreshing after a long flight!
