Marrakech city guide - hammams

reservations city guide city map
Hammams, or public bathhouses, are a part of the day to day life of Moroccans. A hammam is the Moroccan version of a Turkish bath and should not be confused with a luxury beauty spa. Marrakech travel guide - hammams

Traditionally these were reserved for the more affluent members of society, and many upper class Moroccan homes had their own hammam baths. Most Hotels & Ryads member riads have renovated their own hammams and guests are free to enjoy these.

Make sure to bring everything you would need in your own bath, and you can purchase a kiss (scrubbing mitten) and a sabon Bildi (black olive oil soap) at any grocery store or in most of the hammams. Once you arrive at the hammam you can request a tayeba, an assistant that will bring you hot buckets of water and scrub you down if you wish.

Hammams consist of three rooms. The first room is the least steamy and is for bathing. The second and third rooms are hotter and are for massaging and relaxing.
