The Metropolitian Baths - the Ladies Bath, 1858. Creator: Unknown
The Metropolitian Baths - the Ladies Bath, 1858....there has scarcely existed in the metropolis [ie London] a convenient bathing establishment; most of the baths...being notoriously incommodious, and extensive only in their tariffs of charges... [However] a company has established...and placed under the effective management of Mr. H. Mahomed, son of the celebrated Brighton regisseur des bains, a luxuriously-appointed system of baths, [called] the Metropolitan...When we add that the attendants are civil, active, and skilful - that Mr. Mahomed himself superintends the arrangements of the gentlemen's department, while Mrs. Mahomed administers those of the ladies - that the terms are really moderate, and the accommodation such as must satisfy the most fastidious - we think we have said enough to induce our readers...to patronise the Metropolitan Baths. We [describe] them thus fully because they appear to us to supply a deficiency that has long been felt, and are calculated to be a source of comfort to the invalid as well as of pleasure to the healthy...We may state, however, that the ladies and gentlemen's departments are entirely distinct, and have separate entrances - the former at 71 Jermyn-street, and the latter at 24 Bury-street'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858
