Hammam Chellala thermal station, Guelma: bungalows

Hammam Chellala is the public thermal station of Hammam Debagh, the site still widely known as Hammam Meskhoutine, west of Guelma in north-eastern Algeria. Chellala means waterfall: the station lies near the famous hot waterfall with its white mineral terraces. Visitors stay in bungalows and come for the baths. Reviews mostly praise the calm and the cleanliness of the site; prices and rules should be confirmed directly with the station.

Location: Hammam Debagh, the former Hammam Meskhoutine

The station is in the municipality of Hammam Debagh, in Guelma province, west of the city of Guelma. Hammam Debagh, Hammam Meskhoutine and Hammam Chellala all refer to the same place: the official name of the municipality, the historical name and the name of the station.

Many day visitors also come to see the waterfall. Hammam Ouled Ali, the province's other major spa town, lies north of Guelma, and Constantine and Annaba are within driving distance.

Bungalows and accommodation

The station mainly offers bungalows, which guests describe as clean and well equipped. Occupancy and facilities vary, so ask when you book. The town also has private hotels and complexes.

This is a public establishment: Algerian couples are asked for their family record book, and foreign travellers should check the rule with the station.

Baths, very hot water and health

The springs of Hammam Debagh are among the hottest in the country. Only bathe in the fitted pools and cabins, never touch the water at the source or on the waterfall, and keep children by the hand.

According to local establishments, the waters are known for easing rheumatism and some skin conditions. This is not a promise of a cure: ask your doctor before a spa stay, especially if you have heart problems, high blood pressure, are pregnant or are under treatment.

Season and practical tips

In Guelma province, winter and spring are the main spa seasons, while summer weekends and school holidays bring many families. Book early for these periods and set off early if you come for the day.

Bring sandals, a towel and water. Ask on site about meals, and note that opening times change during Ramadan.
