Le Bain Bleu is a hammam and spa at 32 Derb Chorfa Lakbir, in the Mouassine quarter of the Marrakech medina, set over two levels of the Riad Dar Justo with its own street entrance. There are four private hammam rooms of different sizes, several massage cabins, a beauty salon, a relaxation room and a planted roof solarium. All hammam water is heated by 152 square metres of solar panels, and the products are Moroccan organics: argan oil, black soap and rose clay.
Perché prenotare
Le Bain Bleu is a hammam and spa at 32 Derb Chorfa Lakbir, in the Mouassine quarter of the Marrakech medina, a few minutes from Jemaa el Fna.
It occupies two levels of the Riad Dar Justo and has its own street entrance, so you do not walk through a hotel to reach it.
Four private hammam rooms of different sizes mean a couple, a family or a group of friends each get a room to themselves.
All the hammam water is heated by 152 square metres of solar panels rather than gas.
Products are Moroccan organics made in the country: argan oil, beldi black soap and rose clay, with rose, marjoram, verbena and eucalyptus essential oils.
The roof solarium and the Dar Justo garden restaurant are part of the same house, which is why people stay on after a treatment.
Trattamenti
Hammam rituals built on beldi black soap and eucalyptus, an aromatic herb ghassoul body mask, citrus body soaping and an orange blossom shampoo.
Body massage with pure argan oil, and massages using lavender, rose or verbena essential oils.
Facial treatments, oriental manicure and pedicure, reflexology, waxing and hairstyling in the beauty salon.
The Le Bain Bleu Gourmet formula: a 1h30 hammam and argan oil massage, access to the solarium, pool and garden rest areas, plus a three course lunch or dinner.
A bridal shower ritual, where the therapists accompany the bride and her friends into the hammam with sung blessings.
Fascia di prezzo
The Le Bain Bleu Gourmet formula is 950 MAD per person, covering a 1h30 hammam and argan oil massage, use of the solarium, pool and garden rest areas, and a three course meal.
Individual hammams, massages, facials and manicures are listed separately on the spa's own treatment menu, which is published on lebainbleu.com.
Groups and bridal parties are quoted individually rather than from the standard menu.
Orari di apertura
The Dar Justo restaurant and bar on the garden terrace serves without a break from 12:00 to 23:00.
Bring a swimsuit. A bathrobe and slippers are provided, and a disposable slip is offered if you arrive without swimwear.
Every treatment is in a private room shared only with the people you booked with. There are four hammam rooms of different capacities.
A locked locker is provided for your belongings, and there is a shower with shampoo, body wash and a hairdryer at the end.
Periodo migliore
The Gourmet formula is built around a meal, so a late morning start lets the treatment run into lunch on the terrace.
The solarium is a roof terrace under a pergola, which makes it pleasant from spring through autumn and hot in high summer.
Groups are worth flagging in advance, since the spa handles them with a custom quote rather than the standard menu.
