In the tradition of Russian bath houses, Marlboro Banya finds the relaxing side of extremes. One can sweat out toxins in the dry heat of the river-rock-and-granite saunas or boost one's circulation inside the Turkish steam room. But in between sauna sessions, a plunge into the cold pool leaves you feeling invigorated and refreshed. Marlboro Banya's therapists can cap the experience with an exfoliating body scrub or a relaxing massage—or even bring out bundles of fresh oak twigs for a traditional platza. Afterward, guests can adjourn to the onsite restaurant for borscht, blini, and herring and potatoes.
