Location: near Bougaa, in Setif province
The complex is in the municipality of Hammam Guergour, in the north of Setif province, near Bougaa, in mountain scenery at the end of the Bou Sellam gorges. Setif is the nearest big city for shops and other hotels.
Bejaia and Bordj Bou Arreridj are also within driving distance.
Hotel, bungalows and villas
The complex offers three options: rooms in the hotel, bungalows and villas, which suit families better. Accommodation type, occupancy and facilities vary, so ask when you book.
Some guests report a lift that is sometimes out of order and unreliable air conditioning; if you travel with an older person, ask for a room on a low floor. This is a public establishment: Algerian couples are asked for their family record book, and foreign travellers should check the rule with the complex.
Baths and treatment centre
The water of Hammam Guergour flows out at over 40 degrees Celsius and is described as calcium sulphate water. The complex has its own treatment centre with baths and supervised treatments. Some guests find the baths not clean enough, so look at the latest reviews.
According to local establishments, the waters are known for easing rheumatism and some joint pain. This is not a promise of a cure: ask your doctor before a spa stay, especially if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, are pregnant or are under treatment.
Restaurants and life on site
The complex has restaurants and a cafeteria. Reviews of the food are mixed; whether meals are included depends on your offer and is shown before booking.
Bring sandals, a towel and water. During Ramadan, meal times change; summer weekends and school holidays are the busiest periods.
