Hammam saunas in Rome, Italy
Acquamadre
Acquamadre is an independent hammam in the Jewish Ghetto of central Rome, laid out like a Roman bath: a tepidarium at 34°C with heated marble benches and hot-water ablutions, a calidarium steam bath at 45°C and 100% humidity where the body is scrubbed with the kassa glove, then a frigidarium tub of fresh water at 26°C and a relaxation room. Swimwear is compulsory, and the hammam is reserved for women on the first two Thursdays of each month.
El Spa
El Spa is an independent day spa in the Prati district, open for more than 25 years, built around a hammam that is kept exclusively for one guest or a couple at a time. An hour in the hammam on your own costs 65 EUR, or 95 EUR as a traditional Arab hammam with an attendant who performs a deep exfoliation. Longer paths add the spa's steam-filled 'vasche emozionali' baths and massages. It opens daily, 10:00 to 20:30 on weekdays and until 21:00 at weekends.
Templum Salutis
Templum Salutis is an independent hammam on Via Ciro da Urbino in eastern Rome where every path runs without meeting strangers: guests see only the staff. The basic Rituale path lasts 90 minutes and costs 70 EUR. Longer named paths add hot-water ablutions with black soap, a clay hair wrap, a Himalayan salt scrub, a savonage foam massage, the whirlpool tub, fruit and herbal tea in the relaxation room and an almond-oil massage. It opens Monday to Saturday, 10:00 to 19:30, by booking.
Six Senses Spa Rome
Six Senses Spa Rome is the spa of the Six Senses Rome hotel in the historic centre. Its Roman bathing circuit is a modern take on the ancient ritual, moving through a caldarium, tepidarium and frigidarium, and a one-hour session can be combined with Day Spa treatments. Facilities also include sauna and steam rooms, a hammam used for a herbal scrub-and-foam treatment, a biohacking room and a yoga studio. The Roman baths open daily from 9:00 to 20:00 for ages 16 and up.
