I was really looking forward to a restful and relaxing birthday spa day but the spa just didn't live up to expectations. The treatments were good but the constant overhead noise of floorboards from the offices above the spa was so loud and distracting it ruined the whole experience. The music was not very relaxing and did nothing to address the noise throughout the day. Wish I had gone to the... more

I was at the spa back in May and didn't get a chance to review the location. I was on vacation visiting from LA. I did A bit of searching them after recommendation from a friend I chose to go to her moms. Luckily he was very close to my hotel (Thompson hotel) which didn't really have an extensive spa. This spa has s theme of an old ancient Turkish spa with an amazing decor and vibe.

The steam... more

Just like most people seem to say here, the rmt massage is actually decent - the professionals know what they're doing (my deep tissue involved trigger point and passive muscle activation). But! My lady was not able to get into my tight neck/shoulder muscles. I own a massage clinic and my rmt is wayyyy better at getting into my neck. There left something to be desired. With the prices they... more

Hammam Spa used to be my favourite spa in the city. Unfortunately, I need to find a new favourite spa. I went on Friday evening, after work, with a few girlfriend's. Our spa experience didn't start out very peaceful, as we had to wait to speak to the receptionist for about 15 minutes, and then when we went to change in the rooms, all of the lockers had not been stocked with towels or robes, so... more

Having been to Hammam Spa many years ago and remembering the great experience; my lovely beau and I decided to check it out again on my birthday last week. We treated ourselves to a Turkish Hammam bath treatment as it seemed fitting to bring in my new year feeling cleansed, relaxed and purified.

We arrived an hour prior to our appointment to enjoy the hammam and were greeted by a lovely... more

I had a really nice day at Hammam.

I bought the Rest package for my mother for her birthday and joined her for a massage, facial and manicure.

The locker rooms were clean, but a bit on the cold side.

I really like the renovation. The moss on the walls gives the place a really earthy feel, and the manicure area has beautiful plants along the back wall.

We arrived early and used the Hammam... more

This was a pretty disappointing trip - not like my last one at all. The girl who gave me a massage last time was very good, best I have had. Apparently she is not coming back, so I went with a guy who really did not do a good job. It was not enjoyable, and I am in pain today (next day).

The steam room was "redone" but look the same as before. The staff opens to door for a good minute or two in... more

I've visited in the past and enjoyed. Today was the first day after their renovation and I expected a great experience. Instead I was horribly disappointed. I wish they had called me and just cancelled instead of getting what I got

I should say that the massage therapist who l saw was great. The treatment itself was pleasant. But Hammam be brands itself on being more than just a massage... more

I went for a facial and I'm now concerned that there is so much product in my hair that it won't wash it for weeks. She proceeded to do a head massage that had her rubbing all the product from my face in my hair for about five minutes. I really wish I had asked her to stop.
They also are very very aggressive about selling you product. The first 20mins of the facial were spent trying to convince... more

It's more like 2.5 stars to 3 stars, can't decide.

I came here last summer for the first time, when they had a promotion for massage, which was significantly cheaper than the full price, still quite pricy though (came out to $120 something for the hour of massage). I heard lots of things about this place, how the hammam steam room was amazing, the decor was great etc., and it seemed to be... more

This spa is sub par and should really take a second look at its delivery. I'm surprised its received such reviews. I've been to many spa places in the city and this one is by far the worst.

One star off because the massage itself was just okay. We had a couple massage, I had an aromatherapy and my partner had a deep tissue. Even upon a little instruction by us the RMTs failed to adjust their... more

I visited this place a couple months ago as birthday treat to myself. The steam room alone was worth the price of admission. The lighting, eucalyptus oils made this steam room divine and utterly relaxing. They give you sarong to switch into as the stream room is quite HOT!

I didn't feel impressed with the massage while it was happening. I prefer a deep tissue but I thought pressure was kinda... more

Staff was great as there was a mix up with the bookings. They were able to call in a back up therapist and have him start within the hour. They also gave me a gift bag of goodies which was unnecessary but an excellent touch. The baths were great - super clean & beautiful. Maintenance staff was very attentive- love the fresh fruit waters. My Rmt was excellent, incorporating a variety of massage... more

Great staff and services. It's a lovely spa with good offerings. Although I found the 60min Swedish massage to be more expensive than other all-inclusive spas (and ones with pools) they do provide nice amenities like the eucalyptus towels and mixed waters.

So why the poor review? It's due to a poor choice by the owners - they facilities are in a partially below grade, basement of an old... more

I have always loved this place! I feel instantly relaxed the second I walk in, I feel so pampered in the robes they provide and love the opportunity to relax ahead of time in their gorgeous steam room, and the massages and customer service are always amazing.

I didn't think it could get any better, but this weekend they outdid themselves. I bought a gift certificate for a friend's bday, and... more

Please be careful booking a vacation with Itravel2000 and The Cruise Professionals. The company's are in administration and The directors are being investigated for Fraud

This is my first spa experience so I don't have anything to compare it to. I came in for a for:
Microdermabrasion
Swedish Massage
Rhassoul Wrap

They were all amazing services. I even booked the 30 minute jacuzzi suite rental at the end which was fabulous, I needed that alone time after being touched so much! lol.

The use of the steam room in-between each service was fabulous. It so relaxing.... more

This place seems quite polarizing based on previous Yelp reviews, so I wasn't sure what to expect. But I came here mainly wanting to check out the hammam experience. This place has been around for a long time, but I never came before because the prices seemed way too high. But they are offering 20% off all online booking this month, so I decided to use my insurance RMT benefits and try it out.... more

I have used Hammam Spa in the past and the spa services are decent. The steam room was fine. The facial was fine. However, the spa itself is noisy, both within and from the noise upstairs. The Turkish bath/massage is a joke compared to the experience you get in an actual Turkish style bath/massage (and I have had in Turkey, as well as Morocco and Budapest).

I am giving Hammam Spa one star... more

The scrub "Hammam" was amazing the room & treatment
The massage was ok
The down fall of this place was the noise it was not a relaxing place

I wasn't going to write this review.
I find writing negative reviews take up a lot of emotional energy, But, after a bit of thought, if I can save someone else from a s@!%!y experience, it's the least I can do.

So here it goes.

I live a block away from this spa, so I was hoping this would be a good alternative for when my usual go-to is booked up. Plus, I'm a big spa junky.

I booked my... more

What a great retreat

Brought my wife for a massage ... fantastic and enjoyed the steam after. Great service, great place!

I can not express how much I love this place. I specially love the Turkish bath and steam room. Such a cozy, and relaxing setting. I had done a multitude of services there from waxing to, mani/pedis but I would mostly recommend the massages and definitely the bath. The staff are very friendly and professional. The space is always clean and organized. I love this place.

I see a lot of reviews here on how it's amazing here. And yes, it's very beautiful on the inside but the staff is NOT beautiful on the inside at all. Selene is the cruelest woman I have met to this day, I just don't understand, they work at a SPA, SHOULDN'T YOU BE CALM AND TRANQUIL? Unbelievable, there are better spas in Toronto with amazing staff. If i could give this no stars, I'd find a way... more

Took advantage of an AMEX delights special for some well deserved pampering. I thought I would use it in the deep dark depths of winter but as is common with these coupon things, you tend to forget. By fate or fortune I called on the very last day the voucher was supposed to expire luckily, Hammam was very accommodating and allowed me to make an appointment for a couple weeks after.

The Spa... more

I have had a good number of massages, but this was the best, and well worth paying more than I have in the past. The spa is very clean without looking sterile, nicely decorated, and the music is just loud enough that you can listen if you want or tune it out. The used towels and wraps are taken away and fresh towels stocked every few minutes, but unobtrusively. The steam room was quite hot, but... more

As far as Toronto day spas are concerned, my best experiences have been at Hammam. I find scheduling can be an issue, but that is probably a reflection of their popularity. I had a wonderful RMT where other spas have offered massages that always leave much to be desired.

Especially accommodating of couple pampering.

Recently went to Novo Spa and it PALED in comparison.
Will be going back to... more

I just DON'T GET IT!
ok, this is my 2nd time here and I hated both experiences.

Disclaimer: I hate spas or any type of salon that requires someone you don't know touching you. The most acceptable form of touch I will tolerate from a stranger is a high 5 and I give those out generously and graciously.
That being said, I still feel like I am somewhat qualified to rate this spa because I have... more

I would probably be considered one of those "chatty b@!%!*s" that the reviewer below is referring to. Well, not in a rude way, because I maintain spa etiquette but if you go to the spa with a friend, you tend to chat.... Anyway....

My best gal pal and I went to Hammam on the weekend because my hubby got me a gift card for Christmas. Hey, I spend my days chasing around our busy little 11 month... more

I booked a facial at Hammam in the midst of going through some very hard times in my personal life. I wanted to get the most of it so specifically booked Hamman so I could relax in the steam room first. My facial service was incredible. I forget the name of the amazing therapist, but she was blonde and had hipster tortoise shell glasses.

It was a blonde girl at the front desk who completely... more

My husband and I went there for a couple's massage and steam. He liked it and thought the environment was relaxing. We enjoyed it as a part of his birthday treat.

My new favorite place to be on my spare time! When ever I get the chance, I will be back!

Massage was great. Service was awesome. Have been several times!

Poor customer service; Tried to adjust an error the spa made on a mother's day gift cert. Did not receive any help from the front desk only got the run around as they played with semantics over gift cert vs gift card. In short, one could use existing gift cert\card to pay for the desired\correct gift cert package.Which is all I wanted but continued to meet resistance and a lack of willingness... more

Great service. Hammam Spa is awesome! Keep it up.

I cannot remember the name of the massage therapist who I had when I last visited, but it was the best massage I have ever had.

The front staff were very welcoming and professional. I enjoyed the services.

The best spa in town. I had the best experience ever. The entire staff was wonderful. I loved the massage. I will be coming back soon for another.

I've been going to Hammam for years for one thing and one thing only: facials ($130 plus tip) from Ashley. I've been to a lot of spas, and she is as skilled as they come. I love the steam room when it's not full of chatty b@!%!*s and gross men sighing and groaning like they're at the Oakwood men's only Steam Bath, if you catch my drift. And the towels have shrunk over the years, which makes... more

I just had a fantastic experience here and felt I need to share. First off, the place is very pretty. I just felt good as soon as I came in. Nice music and decor, lovely music, and very clean. I arrived a bit early for my appointment and was shown to a relaxing waiting room, equipped with refreshments.

Once my appointment time came around, the esthetician showed me to the a comfy seat where... more

I went to Hammam Spa two weeks ago for a half day package. I really liked how the decor in the spa is unique compared to other spas I have gone to. My favourite part of the spa is the steam room. It is co-ed so it was great that I was able to hang out with my boyfriend as well. I've never been in a steam room before, it was amazing, it's supposed to be detoxifying and after wards you feel... more

First of all, I'd like to observe I didn't have any "spa service" there. I went for a shellac manicure just because it's across the street from my work - super convenient.

It's a beautiful, super clean, well decorated spa. They will treat you like a princess. Everything smells like paradise. I was waiting in a beautiful room for my manicure, who asked me if I wanted standard shellac or this... more

The stream room smells like magic.

Went here with my best friend today, best facials experience in my life! Reception/Administration seemed a little disorganized, but service as a whole was good! Awesome steam room and nice that it is coed.

Not the best around for $135 / 1h massage.

Perhaps Hammam Spa was better when it opened; but the interior is beginning to feel and look tired and run-down.

The lobby / entrance feels and looks dirty. It is difficult to tell if the light coloured bamboo floors are just dirty or stained from years of use. Either way, it detracts from the overall first impression. Not the end of the world.

The... more

Hammam stands alone in Toronto by offering a co-ed turkish-style steam bath plus spa services.

The steam bath is an oasis from the city's hustle and bustle. The essential oil scented steam fills a dark, restful grotto where bathers enjoy the reguvinating effects of steam therapy. The steam bath is by far my favorite - I would go here once per week if time permitted. Go, spend a few hours and... more

I went to Hammam Spa on the 21st of December...I was finished work and this was my first day of vacay until Jan 4th 2010, what an amazing way to start a vacay...other then jumping on a plane and flying to a hot country with a hot man.

I had purchased the gift cards in a charity auction at work, so I had a good amount to play with. It took me a few days to think about what I wanted to do and I... more

I'm a massage queen. I used to get them regularly but due to my travel schedule not as much. My preference is a male masseuse and typically walk away if there is none available.

I just got back from a 2 week vaca, while I should have come back relaxed my back was totally stiff! I slept on the worst bed and airplane seats make for a backache.

Due to year end, it was virtually impossible to... more

My girlfriend booked a couple massage, which was OK, but not spectacular. Well, actually she really liked hers, said it was the second best massage she ever got (I guess the one I gave her was the 1st best :). I think I may be more demanding, so I would only give mine 3.5 out of 5. Also, it's a little on the expensive side - price was $125 each for 1-hour RMT massage.

On the good note, the... more

I am a spa lover. I consider visiting the spa a reward for all my hard work. Visits aren't cheap by any means but if the quality and the service matches or exceeds the price, then I leave a blissed out camper.

So Hammam... what do I say about you? I can't say many good things.

We booked a Couple's Package which comes with a steam room session in the communal steam room, a massage and a facial... more

i checked out this place as they're down the street from me. it is *incredible* the masseuse (angela) was wonderful, sensitive, and very well-trained. the atmosphere is very luxurious and relaxing - with attention to every little detail, including heated massage tables, lockers, robes and wraps for the steam room. the steam room is incredible. i usually go to dry saunas, and find them... more
