If you want a spa with a difference try the Hammam in the heart of Rhodes Old Town.

This huge Turkish bath is a relic from the Ottoman empire, and has cavernous steam rooms and plunge pools. The building is completely authentic, you are welcome to just sit and relax, or have a fantastic massage which leaves you wobbly when you stand.

Locals go regularly, and it is said to be a great cure for acne.

There are rooms for one person, two or the communal area. It is worth going simply to admire this beautiful old building!

If you are not too relaxed to walk, enjoy a coffee or a drink at one of the cafe bars opposite when you leave.

It's a 5 minute walk from Socrates Street, ask at one of the restaurants at the fountain.

Entrance fee is E2 and a massage costs E5 - bring towels and swimming costumes. It is open all year.
