In the hyperactive train of Parisian life, it is good to stop to take time for oneself. And it is this message that the Bains du Marais conveys to us. Originally, the address was located in the rue des Blancs-Manteaux, and became a cult address thanks to its hammam. Since then, Les Bains du Marais have moved to the 2nd arrondissement of Paris to offer us a redesigned concept that should delight the hearts of Parisians.
Today, it is a real place of life, party and relaxation extending on 700m2. The idea? To democratize well-being for Parisians of a day and of all times. A real place of socialization, we come alone, with our friends, but also with our family, with treatments designed for parents and children to enjoy a beautiful moment of complicity while taking advantage of this escapade that inspires travel.
Because Les Bains du Marais is also a place where ancestral know-how from the four corners of the world can be found. If the entrance of the spot reveals a cosy and luminous atmosphere, the corridor that leads us to the spa is a real transition towards the subdued universe where relaxation reigns.
This universe begins with the manicure and pedicure corner as well as the " hair spa" then continues on the floors below to the hammam. There, you will only need your bathing suit and perhaps your favorite shampoos and conditioners: everything else is waiting for you in your locker room: towels, bathrobes, sandals and especially the Kessa glove.
As for the Hammam, it takes the codes of the traditional Turkish bath. We bask on the copper mosaic, while our muscles relax under the effect of heat. When the time comes, you are called to the adjacent cabins to enjoy a real scrub with black soap that gets rid of dead skin, followed by a soaping with a scarf inflated with air that offers us the caress of a cloud. Everything is done according to the rules of art!
After this comforting escapade, your well-being break can continue with a treatment. It is important to know that here, the practitioners each bring their own know-how linked to their cultural heritage. It is a team coming from the four corners of the world that animates this wellness address: Tibet, Brazil, Peru, Tunisia, Mali...
Here, we are promised ancestral massages performed in their identity integrity. The oriental wax used for hair removal is even home-made! In addition to these skills that have been passed down through the ages, Les Bains du Marais also showcases more modern advances with customized treatments by Dermalogica.
But Les Bains du Marais is also a festive and gourmet address with its Life restaurant. Here, the principle is to party until the wee hours of the morning to the rhythm of DJ sets orchestrated by a mostly female line-up from Thursday to Saturday night. In this restaurant, we are promised a bistronomic and Mediterranean cuisine with cooking on embers. In order to make everyone agree, there are vegetarian dishes on the menu, but also dishes to share. The menu is elaborated in order to propose seasonal products, in short circuit for all that concerns the market gardeners part.
So here is what the spot looks like where Parisians come to relax!
