At Banya No.1, we take wellness to the next level. Our exhilarating thermal experience combines ancient wellness rituals, authentic facilities and a bespoke service. Based on the thermal cycle of hot, cold, rest, and repeat – a centuries-old wellness tradition practised in Northern Europe – our experience will leave you feeling reborn.

We will guide you through temperature extremes and the Parenie ritual – an invigorating thermal treatment involving bunches of birch, oak and eucalyptus leaves, followed by an icy-cold plunge.

Scrubs, body wraps, masks and traditional massages are all performed using strictly natural ingredients. The experience comes complete with our culinary Nordic delights and healthy organic drinks that help you to maintain electrolyte balance.

Banya No.1 – Hoxton features the Public Banya (perfect for small groups and solo visits) and our Private Spa suite, TAIGA, which can accommodate up to 10 people and is ideal for parties and special occasions.

Our thermal wellness adventure is ideal for anyone looking to detox, de-stress or simply unwind with their friends and family. We will energise you, invigorate your senses, and cleanse your body and mind.

A Transformative Experience at Banya No.1 – An Urban Wellness Sanctuary Banya No.1 delivers an unforgettable experience that blends ancient tradition with modern luxury. From the moment you step inside, you’re transported from the bustling streets into a serene world where relaxation is both an art and a ritual. The parenie (the signature thermal treatment) was nothing short of incredible — a sensory reset. The venik massage with leafy birch and oak branches, combined with the hot steam, awakened every muscle and left me floating in a state of pure bliss. The ice plunge immediately afterward was electrifying, sharpening the senses and rejuvenating the body in a way no spa treatment has ever matched. The space itself is meticulously clean, beautifully designed, and thoughtfully laid out to offer privacy and comfort. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sharing the traditions of the banya, making the experience feel both personal and profound. I highly recommend trying the honey and salt body scrub, a perfect complement to the parenie, leaving the skin feeling silky and renewed. The lounge area, complete with herbal teas, traditional snacks, and a warm, communal atmosphere, invites you to linger and savor the afterglow. Banya No.1 is not just a spa — it’s a powerful cultural experience that leaves you physically revitalized and mentally reset. A hidden gem that anyone serious about wellness (or simply craving a deep, restorative escape) must experience. I can’t wait to return.
