Rising costs of firewood and fuel threaten to increase prices for Moroccan hammams as winter approaches

With the approach of winter and a noticeable drop in temperatures, traditional hammams are once again becoming a primary focus for many Moroccan citizens as their preferred destination for bathing and traditional heating.

However, this seasonal habit may face new financial challenges that could make it more costly for patrons. In this context, reports are circulating that some hammam owners are considering raising the prices of their services.

These potential increases are attributed, according to circulated reports, to the continuous rise in fuel costs and the price of firewood, which is primarily used for heating purposes. This places professionals and citizens in a difficult position, balancing the continuity of their business with the need to consider the purchasing power of the public.
