TESTIMONIALS

Oleksandr Kanazirskyi

The best place in the world!

Elena S

We’ve been to a few and love #1 in Chiswick. It became friends & family tradition to go out on a SPA day @Banya. It’s a cozy place with your own booth & table with variety of traditional food & drinks.

Mark Leitch

Loved the time in the sauna talking with others. My wife and I both got the pat down with the birch leaves in the traditional Slavic way — it was a nice experience. We enjoyed borscht soup and the natural tangy and Seabuckthorn berry tea. We’ll be back – three hours flew by.

Sarah Wharton

It is so relaxing, and the treatments are amazing, wow!

Naima Vogt

Really lush facilities, authentic Banya and great and attentive staff! A great birthday celebration for my husband.

Irina Franckevic

Always on point. Treatments are fantastic, facilities so well kept. Service 5 stars! And food – love it so much I could write a chapter. Had one package experience and decided to get a membership after. Love it and it’s all so healthy.

Nicola Morrow

A wonderfully invigorating and relaxing Banya experience.

Chaslav

Thank you soo much for a wonderful time. You converted 5 brits to join the Banya community!!

Chenzter Espinosa

Absolutely loved banya! Would highly recommend the Parenie if you haven’t tried it before. The food was also delicious. I also had the massage, and It was one of the best massages I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely go back, and hopefully try a visit at least monthly during the winter.

Tatiana Mercer

Always the best! Love it here – and leave feeling brand new.

echursina

Me and my mum had the wonderful time. It was great for both of us, despite my mum goes to Banya regularly and me only on a very rare occasions, both of us had the best time. Parenie was done by Alexander, who definitely knows his job well. Highly recommend.

igor L

Impecably clean. Relaxing, cozy atmosphere (we were renting Karelia room). Well tuned steam room. Venik-massage is a must. Excellent food, including classics – crayfish, borsch, herrings. Thumbs up!

AGG

The best time! Just what the body and the soul needed, come out a new man! Food and drink excellent too. Do go and experience for yourself.

harry s

Absolutely excellent. Highly recommended. Staff very friendly. Felt really refreshed, energised and relaxed will definitely go again.

Marine Boixiere

A great experience all together! Went with girlfriends and it was so much fun! The salt/honey massage was divine! And the homemade food was scrumptious! They do take-away too… Highly recommend it!

Eugen Kail

The Bath House is truly a hidden gem in London for anyone or any group looking to unwind. The real highlight, though, is the time spent at the table with friends, enjoying fantastic food. It’s a unique experience that adds so much to the visit, and it always leaves me excited to return.

SamChasingTheSea

Took my partner for a birthday treat and we loved it. Booked their gold package with included the signature parenie treatment (just try it – it’s wonderful ). Will come again. Lovely to have own booth . Great contrast of hot steam room and cold lounge pool. So happy to have found this gem of a pl…

Is Banya the same as Sauna?

A banya is very similar to a sauna. Russian banya and Fninish sauna are both traditional forms of bathing and relaxation. However, there are several differences between the two: Banya (a Russian type of sauna) has a high humidity of around 40-60%. The Finnish sauna, on the other hand, is very dry. Humidity is kept very low, 5-10% only. However, the temperature inside the sauna can be much higher – typically around 90°C. Typically, the temperature in Banya is kept around 70°С. Read more in Blog.

What can I expect when I visit?

A warm welcome – whether visiting us for the first time, or as an old friend, banya is always an inviting and open place. It is a place of relaxation and rejuvenation and our friendly staff are always on hand to advise, so don’t be shy, especially if this is a new experience for you. They can advise you on the best treatments for you, and guide you through your visit.

Allow yourself 3 hours or so for your visit – you will not want to leave in a hurry!

Have a look around the website and please do call us if you have any particular questions or concerns.

How hot is the banya?

Banya steam rooms are maintained at around 70°C – a little cooler than an average sauna, but remember that it is not a ‘dry’ air – there is high humidity.

It is this combination of heat and steam that creates the ideal banya environment. You can come and go from the steam rooms as you wish, to ensure you remain comfortable at all times.

What is Parenie?

Parenie is an invigorating leaf and steam treatment, massaging with bunches of oak, birch, and eucalyptus leaves (these are called veniks). Sweeping movements with the veniks draws down superheated steam across your body. Directly after this, you plunge into icy cold water; the sudden contrast in temperature improves your circulation, relieves muscle tension and helps the body detox. Many find it incredibly mentally stimulating.

What other treatments are there?

We have a full range of massage, and body and skin treatments, which will leave your body and mind feeling amazing. Here are more details on all our treatments.

Is it best to book in advance?

Usually, yes to avoid disappointment, as we limit visitor numbers to ensure that everyone has the space to relax and fully enjoy their experience. We take bookings for individuals and groups of all sizes, so give us a call and let us know when you want to come along.

Can I book a treatment on the day?

We understand that plans change – so we will always do our best to accommodate any last minute requests. In return, we ask that you be understanding if we cannot always accommodate these during busy periods.

It is always best to book treatments in advance, to ensure you receive all the treatments that you are wanting.

Can I book a private booth in the relaxation lounge?

We have a variety of booths and seating areas in the relaxation lounge. We do our best to accommodate specific requests, but at busy times, seating will be allocated according to group sizes, to ensure everyone is comfortable.

What should I bring when I come to banya?

Come along with your swimming costume and, if you have them, a pair of flip-flops. Swimming costumes are required for all mixed sessions (no exceptions). These are optional if you have booked a single-gender visit – for those you may wear your costume or not, however you feel most comfortable. Flip-flops may be purchased from Reception if needed – they are required as the wet floors can be slippery.

You may also bring toiletries such as soap or shampoo if you prefer, but this is not necessary as everything else you need is provided.

Can I bring children?

Banya sessions are available to anyone over the age of 16. Children over the age of 16 are welcome in Banya, but please remember – parents/ guardians are responsible for them and their behaviour during your visit and must fill a consent form for minors.

Can I visit if I am pregnant or have another medical condition?

If you have any medical concerns – including pregnancy – then please consult your GP before visiting us. We are not able to advise on specific conditions.

Do you have parking?

We do not have our own parking area, but you can find on-street parking close by. We are also situated conveniently close to Chiswick Park tube station (a 3-minute walk).

Where can I find your food and drink menu?

Our full menu of food and drinks can be found here.

Do you have a bar on the premises?

Yes, our relaxation lounge has a fully licensed bar. Whilst a little alcohol with food is a most enjoyable way to end your visit, please do not drink before your booking.

We reserve the right to refuse any of our services to anyone appearing intoxicated, for the safety of all our guests.

Do you take bookings for parties and other events?

Yes – we can accommodate private parties corporate events and many other group bookings. Please call us to discuss your requirements.

We also have our exclusive Karelia Lounge package which can be booked for private events.

What are your cancellation and booking policies?
