Archimedes Banya

The facilities are decent, the saunas are nice and hot. The only thing that really sours the experience for me and takes away stars is the incredibly rude (for no reason) front desk staff. Upon entering they did not greet me or look me in the eye, just kept talking among themselves. And two other times I interacted with them during my visit, totally non-attentive and disengaged. It costs nothing to be at least courteous to patrons who are paying you hundreds of dollars.

This place is my sanctuary. No sauna and Spa in California compare. It's the most refreshing experience. The cafe and availability of food and beverages is tasty and always enjoyable. The saunas are always hot and the cold plunge is a well-needed respite. Be prepared for a lot of nudity and good company.

Went here yesterday for the first time. I've been to many bathhouses but this was the first time I've been to a coed bathhouse. Had the best deep massage from Davon. Enjoyed the Russian style saunas, and heated pools. And went around their cafe, TV lounge and patio. Overall, a great experience.

Very disappointed by this place. I read a lot of super-enthusiastic reviews and thought to buy a gift card for my wife. The place does not look anything great, the people at the reception did not even know the services they offered. I had to guide them through their menu of services. There were boxes all over the place, there was a guy arguing with a staff member for some problems he had. No intention to go back there!

It’s not the Four Seasons. The locker rooms are a bit snug and towels seemed to be hard to come by…but the experience was amazing. I felt good community-like vibes, like people cared about each other. I booked the Platza Bodywork Hammam Package; it was a great experience. I forgot the woman’s name who did my treatment but she was a kind soul. Thank you very much!
