Three of my friends & I had a 1 hour session in March 2011. There were about 12-15 young college students in there at the same time and the management did not enforce the *no talking* policy, which really took away from everyone else's experience. I'd definitely go again, but next time, I'll make sure to remind them about what... More

Relaxing if you just see it as a hot swimming-pool in a beautiful, romantic atmosphere. But 27 euros is really overpriced for what you get. There isn't any space for a proper washing/scrubing (just a few showers), and you keep your swimming suit at all times anyway. Very disappointing if you've been before to a "real" hamman or similar place... More

I'm studying abroad in Granada and have my finals coming up, not to mention I am beginning to get anxious about my flight home. I have been having trouble sleeping, so I decided to treat myself to a little relaxation. This was perfect! I paid for 1.5 hours in the baths and a 15 minute massage for under 30 euro.... More

Our experience with the baths was pleasant however the only thing we can say bad about it was there was too many people in there at the same time. This created a relatively loud atmosphere due to all the talking and laughing echoing off the ceilings and walls - this ruined the experience some what (especially the massage). Nonetheless if...

the massage was very short and a kind of thai, the waterbassins had three different temperatures and after half an hour it started to be quite annoying. You have only 1 1/2 hours time and than you have to leave. Thats not worth 28 €. In any Sauna or thermal in berlin you have more relaxation and fun. More

For only 26 euros you get 2 hours of bath time including a 15 minute massage and a free flow of moroccan mint tea (the same in London would cost at least £60). There are 6 pools of various temperatures and 1 cold pool in this traditional bath house. It was nice to soak my muscles in the scented warm... More

My girlfriend and I went because we heard all about it. Booked it online. A little tough to find but no worries. It was relaxing; you have a choice between a full body and a half body massage, the full body being more expensive. Its something good to do right before going back to the hotel for a seista. More

A friend and I spent a few days in granada and really enjoyed this moorish experience. the baths are in a side street and don't look very exciting from the outside. inside though it is a tranquil place made up of 6 baths at different temperatures. there is an exotic feel to it with the granadian tiles, recognisable if you...
