Hammam Bathing House Athens Athens

Absolute relaxation

Marilena from Athens

I was born and raised in the area of Piraeus, the port next to Athens. It’s one of the main reasons I am in love with the sea and industrial places. Since I finished my studies of “Business Administration” (still do not know why I studied something that I dislike!) , I started working at my family run travel agency. Unfortunately , because of Covid we have to close that agency . But t...
"Visiting the "Hammam Baths" in Athens is a very pertinent experience, as the city is a mixture of Eastern and Western cultures. Relax with a massage..."

When you visit Athens, you will realize that the city is a mixture between the culture of the West and East (and as it is said, Athens is Weast!). My favorite part of the city is related to Eastern habits, such as taking a bath at the hammam.

The best place in Athens to enjoy this is located downtown, close to Thiseio Train Station and it is called "Hammam Baths". There you can enjoy different kinds of hammam, but also different types of massages.

You can check their website and choose from the traditional Hammam, hammam from Marocco or "Ali- Mama" hammam. You can also combine these types with special body treatments like a cleaning of your face and body with honey or with special ingredients from the Red Sea.

When you finish these relaxing Eastern habits, you can spend time at their lounge drinking tea, eating oranges and "loukoumia" while listening to lounge music.

You should reserve your place for hammam and massage a few days in advance.

Buho Bruncherie

The ideal place for brunch

The unique pancakes at Buho (sweet and savory) are in my opinion, the best I have tried in the city and the menu has enough options to satisfy all tastes.

Talking Breads

Talking about street food

My favourite burger is the Bacon Mushroom Melt, and my favourite sandwich is the Tika, which is slightly spicy and causes a chain of flavour explosions!

Teras

A pretty monster

Teras is full of contradictions: it is unconventionally named (teras means 'monster' in greek) in an ugly way but it is one of the most beautiful places to enjoy your drink.
