A Moroccan Hammam is a unique sensory experience combining warmth, steam and centuries-old traditions. The hammam is indeed an integral part of Moroccan culture-a communal sanctuary where people go to cleanse themselves, socialize, and relax. Beyond physical cleansing, hammams serve as important social spaces, where people gather to chat, share news, and maintain community bonds.
Traditional Moroccan Hammam
The architecture of the hammams is beautiful, featuring domed ceilings and intricate tilework. If you are looking for an exceptional place where you can get rid of your impurities and where you can completely relax after a stressful week, Montreal offers several options to experience this tradition.
SAFIR: An Authentic Hammam Experience
SAFIR is precisely all that. More specifically, at SAFIR, your hammam journey begins in a warm room (approximately 35°C/95°F) where you’ll acclimate your body and apply Moroccan black soap made from olives and essential oils to your skin. After the steaming process, one of our skilled attendants (called a “kessala” for women or “kessal” for men) will escort you to a heated table in the center of the hammam.
Hammam & Spa Karima: A Blend of Tradition and Modernity
In an atmosphere of calm and serenity, Hammam & Spa Karima invites you to discover a range of exquisite treatments combining ancient knowledge and the most recent techniques. It is a hammam that preserves the tradition of Turkish baths. Combining authenticity and modernity, you will live a dreamlike experience that will immerse you in deep relaxation.
