Russian Banya

About the Russian Banya of Dallas An old Russian custom and, from medieval times, a national institution, the banya has been around for more than a thousand years, with only on in Texas: ours. The heart of our establishment is our banya, which is the only such facility open to the public in the United States that is heated ( up to 220°F and 60% humidity) by a wood-burning stove. The Russian Banya of Dallas also offers guests a dry Finnish sauna (heated up to 180°F 10% humidity) that provides a milder heat. In addition we offer a Turkish steam room (heated to 110°F, with 100% humidity) that makes use of soothing moisture to heat the body evenly. Lastly, we offer a cold plunge, which, at 40-42°, is a substitute for the snow bath (or “dip”) in a frozen river that traditionally concludes a banya session— a thoroughly invigorating part of the cleansing process that is not to be missed. All of our saunas are co-ed, as is our lounge area, which seats up to 60 people. To learn more about the Russian Banya of Dallas as well as Restaurant Volga, its sister restaurant, visit our website.
