RECESS Thermal Station

Bathhouse bathing is the programme: heat, cold, rest and company in one place, and people come to stay

Quebec's first social thermal station, in Griffintown: a circular sauna seating about 50, a communal cold plunge and an immersive lounge of art and music, in guided or free sessions — social bathing with a soundtrack, not a silent spa.

The full record, with the available operating, price and research data, is free for Bathhouse subscribers.
