PUBLIC BATH HOUSE EXPERIENCE

Hot, Cold, Rest, Repeat

Our banya bath house and thermal spa experience is based on the exhilarating Nordic thermal cycle – a centuries-old wellness tradition that involves alternating between extreme heat and cold.

Hot
Hot

Start your Public Banya Bath House journey with fellow wellness enthusiasts by warming up in the traditional Parnaya steam room characterised by intense heat. Feel your blood flow through body, your pores open and your immune system come alive.

Cold

Following the intense heat, cool off in a cold water bucket shower or icy cold plunge pool. This rapid cooling of the body invigorates circulation and enhances detoxification, providing a refreshing contrast to the sweltering temperatures.

Rest
Rest

After experiencing contrasting heat and cold exposures, it's crucial to let your body normalise its temperature and stabilise your heart rate. At our Public Banya Bath House, guests are invited to relax in private booths within the lounge area, where you can rehydrate and enjoy nourishing food and drinks. You can also rest by enjoying one our many organic spa treatments before jumping back into the cycle.

FAQ

Can I visit the bathhouse if I have a health condition?

If you have a health condition that might affect your use of our thermal spa facilities and services, we recommend consulting with your doctor or healthcare professional beforehand to ensure it’s safe for you.

Can pregnant or breastfeeding individuals experience the thermal spa?

We don’t recommend using our banya bathhouse facilities if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Please consult with your doctor or healthcare professional for advice specific to your situation.

Is there parking available?

Free on-street parking, including residential bays, is available on Micawber Street and parallel roads on weekends and after 6:30 pm. At all other times, visitors to Banya No.1 – Hoxton can use these parking bays at a cost of £7 per hour. For more details on parking zones and restrictions, please visit the Hackney Council Parking Zones page.

What’s your cancellation policy?

Our cancellation policy allows you to cancel up to 72 hours before your booking for a full refund. Cancellations made within 72 hours of your appointment are non-refundable. We recommend notifying us as early as possible if you need to change or cancel your booking.

What shall I bring with me?

Swimwear is essential during mixed-gender sessions, so please bring your own or purchase from Reception (£12 for swim shorts, £15 for a bikini). For female guests, we recommend wearing a bikini (not swimsuits) to allow the steam to circulate better around the body during steam room experience and the Parenie ritual.

Flip-flops must also be worn; you can bring your own or buy a pair from Reception (£7). A hat is required to protect you from the heat in the steam sauna—you can either bring your own, buy a new one, or borrow one of ours.

Can I come with children to the bathhouse?

Children aged 8 and above are welcome in our public thermal spa. If you wish to bring younger kids, you can do so with a private bathhouse booking, which also includes a TV to keep them entertained while you enjoy your rituals and treatments. However, please remember that introducing younger children to thermal experiences is at your discretion, and we recommend considering their comfort and well-being during your visit.

Can I order additional treatments?

Yes, you can order additional treatments outside of our thermal spa packages, but they are subject to availability. We recommend booking them in advance to secure your preferred treatments.

What are men-only bathhouse hours?

Men-only spa hours are every Friday from 9:30 to 22:30. During this time, our main bathhouse is exclusively open to men, providing a relaxed and comfortable environment for your thermal spa experience.

What are women-only bathhouse hours?

Women only spa hours are from 9:00 to 13:00 every Monday, Thursday, and Sunday. During these hours, our main bathhouse is exclusively open to women, providing a relaxed and comfortable environment for your thermal spa experience.

What are mixed session bathhouse hours?

Mixed-gender bathhouse sessions are available throughout the week and weekends, allowing all guests to enjoy our facilities together. These hours provide a shared experience, and you can join during our standard operating hours, except during the dedicated women-only and men-only sessions.

Mixed-gender hours are all hours except Fridays (men-only day) and the mornings of Mondays, Thursdays, and Sundays until 13:00 (women-only hours).

What’s the difference between thermal spa packages and sauna and plunge sessions?

Lasting between 2.5 to 3 hours, our thermal spa packages offer the full banya experience, including our signature Parenie ritual for deep invigoration, plus additional treatments such as massages, scrubs, and mud masks. Each spa package includes a private booth with a table where you can relax and enjoy food and drinks between your hot and cold sessions.

Sauna and plunge sessions, on the other hand, are ideal if you’re short on time but still want to use the bathhouse’s contrasting facilities to feel invigorated. These shorter sessions come with a shared table, allowing you to rest alongside fellow guests and stay hydrated.
