Best places: Public baths in Fatih, Turkey

👍👍 If you’re looking for an interesting cultural experience, I definitely suggest this Hamam. I did the scull experience and it was extremely fun. You get covered in bubbles, a relaxing oil massage, and amazing smelling shampoo. My masseuse found knots in my neck I had no idea I had. Amazing service!...

👍👍 Well worth a visit to this branch with Salt Cave. It is very accessible at the Sultan Ehmet area and close to many hotels so you can crash after being treated. Do the Full 2hour deal or 1:30 minutes deal. Ask for Minma, she’s speaks fluent English and very helpful. The ladies who do the actual bathi...

👍👍 Initially, we had an appointment foe a more popular and more expensive Hamam.. luckily we had found a driver to take us to that location and while on the way we found put our apps was closed. Graciously he told us he would take us to a very good place. We were a bit skeptical but agreed. Upon our a...

😠 I would not recommend this place. You go down to the basement of the hotel, and it feels very dark and dirty. The receptionist was not friendly and did not make me feel welcome. She said the card reader was broken and we had to go back upstairs to make the purchase, and the whole thing felt a bit sc...

🫤 The place only has 4.8 stars because after the whole bath, they force you to put a positive review from the staff phone, otherwise they don't continue with the clay mask. The hamam bath was okay, the people working there did a good massage. The negative thing is that the place is quite ugly, bad ve...

Impressive Ottoman-empire hammam, finished in 1741, with domes supported by arches and columns.

👍👍 I contacted them before going there and they explained everything to me, I went in the evening, the Classic Hamam session lasts 40 minutes, 10 minutes in the sauna, 15 in scrubs, 15 in foam massage and then a shower at the end, all very clean and organized, you can book a few days before going and y...

👍👍 My mom and I had a great experience there. We booked full program, so we had sauna, turkish bath and massage. At every stage service was great. The place is clean and comfortable. Women who perform bathing and massage were very friendly, nice and professional.

😠 To therapists, Be proud of your job, please. Focus on the client in front of you. Take care of your body and mental. Long nail can hurt other skin. Clean the room. Low massage skill is okay, but Low responsibility is not okay.

16th-century, Ottoman-style hammam offering traditional baths & massages, plus on-site restaurant.

This functional Turkish baths was established in the 1500s & still provides services today.

👍👍 I’m giving this place a 5/5 as a man, but I’d like to give the woman a quick heads up so you know what to expect!! When we arrived we immediately loved the traditional ambiance. The men their greeted us friendly and showed us the new prices (different from the website) it is now 160 Lira for tradit...

👍👍 OK, the exterior is very shady looking, so on arrival you may feel underwhelmed. But go up the stairs, be greeted by the very sweet gentleman and you will immediately feel welcomed. It is ann ancient building that must have been refurbished many many times, but the actual baths are amazing! And t...

It was one of the happiest days of our live...

😠 Never go here if more than one person!! Only one room and one massageterapist. Was there with a friend and had to sit and wait while they started with him. Did not tell us in front about this - and waiting was cold with a facemask. Then complained and was told I would get refund. Went up, but had t...

👍👍 Amazinggggggggggg Massage! Amazinggg experience! The staff is polite and accommodating. Ask for Anita....she's amazing!!

👍 Tarihi Şifa Hamamı is a small historic hammam in center of old city of Istanbul since 1777. Very close to Blue mosque and central square, close to Hagia Sophia. I stayed in Coliseum Hotel which is only hundreds meters from hammam, so it was very convenient to wake up in the morning and go there afte...

👍👍 Çağaloğlu Bath, one of the oldest baths in Istanbul, offers a historical and traditional Turkish bath experience. Visitors generally state that they have a peaceful and enjoyable time here. The historical texture and atmosphere of the bath is truly impressive! 🧖‍♂️🕌
