We’re a family of Russians passionate about spreading health and well-being. We arrived in the U.S. and missed our local banya, but we also wanted to create something new and uniquely American.
Downtown Banya combines the best of Russian tradition with the amenities of a modern spa. In addition to the sauna, you’ll enjoy massage, exfoliation, and exquisite dining. We’ve even got a TV and pool table for lounging afterwards.
The biggest difference is the humidity: ordinary saunas can’t provide the same benefits as an authentic Russian banya. We keep the humidity close to the air outside allowing us to make things a lot hotter. In a typical “Wet” sauna your stay can’t be as long or as hot because the steam can scald your skin. A banya allows for maximum enjoyment and benefit.
Savory soups to warm you up, vibrant salads that are a meal by themselves and desserts that will take your tongue to heaven. Downtown Bistro is the best way to top off every banya visit. You don’t even have to get dressed. Step out of the sauna and right into our dining room in your robe and sauna hat.
Visits to Banya make great gifts for family and friends and are the perfect treat for those who like to get steamy at the Northwest's only authentic Russian Spa.
