Turkish Baths
The Club’s Turkish Baths provide a unique haven away from the hustle and bustle of city life. This centuries-old experience will leave you feeling calm, refreshed and revitalised – as well improving your circulation and invigorating your senses.
Relax in the five hot rooms, each with varying heat and humidity, before taking a refreshing dip in the plunge pool – all in rare, golden silence. You can then finish your visit by sitting back to enjoy some light refreshments and a good read in the Frigidarium.
