FARRAH_F, Jun 2026

An excellent performance

It was a fabulous show in terms of music, costumes, and dance performances They stared on time, letting us in about 15 minutes early to walk around and enjoy the displays which were of historical and cultural significance. The show took 1 hour and it was a very pleasant experience. Their directions were clear and it was easy to find the theatre. The performances depicted traditional dances including the swirling dervishes.

I felt like a 1 million...

I felt like a 1 million bucks afterwards. With this being the first time I have had this “ritual” experience… It would’ve been nice to be told ahead of time what the process entailed at the time instead ok sit here sit there.(yes I know it’s in the description)

Private Turkish Bath Tradition, Massages, Swimming Pool & Sauna

Rayo_A, May 2026

You must do this on your visit to Turkey!

I had an amazing time at the hammam spa. The customer service was exceptional! We were talked through every step, given a free tea and face mask. To top it all off we were allowed to use the pool even though we didn’t pay for it. The actual massage and scrub was amazing, left feeling clean and smooth. Be ware, if you book as a group with friends, they will put you all together and you will see each other partially naked (women). Its best to wear a bikini rather than than a full bathing suit. The sauna was great, facilities were clean and we were given towels, flip flops and moisturiser etc. We went at 8pm and it was not busy at all. Definitely would do again!

Extremely happy! We might repeat 😍

My husband and I were very happy with the experience. We had just gotten of the plane into Istanbul and had not slept well the might prior to leaving, and, naturally, on the plane. We booked a full massage with, the bubble massage, the scrub, the sauna and steam room. The whole thing was closed with a mask and their delicious tea. The ladies there super professional. We highly recommend this activity of you are looking for a relaxing experience. They provide lockers so please, please, please, leave it in there. Just take an and hour and a half to 1:45 to properly treat yourself.

Excellent

The Turkish bath experience was truly wonderful and very relaxing. From the moment we entered, the atmosphere was calm, elegant, and welcoming. The beautiful marble surroundings and warm steam created a perfect environment to unwind and enjoy the traditional hammam ritual. The staff were very professional, attentive, and made sure that every step of the experience was comfortable and enjoyable. The cleansing, foam massage, and overall treatment were incredibly refreshing and left us feeling completely relaxed. It was not only a relaxing treatment but also a unique cultural experience that reflects the rich Turkish tradition. I would highly recommend the Turkish bath to anyone visiting Istanbul. It was a memorable and rejuvenating experience

Istanbul Old City: Ottoman Hamam Experience with Foam Massage

AlexYS_P, Mar 2026

Great service.

Both my wife and I were extremely happy with our first exposure to Turkish bath. We bought the Ottoman package for its completeness. The cost is rather high when I compare with other experiences in Budapest, Thailand and Hong Kong. But the environment of Cağaloğlu is unique. Regarding the service, my wife was very happy with Mekel (?) for her gentle and caring manner. She enjoyed it much more than I anticipated. The tellak handling me was Erdal. His treatment was more on the macho side. It was fun and very enjoyable. As it was our first time to the Cağaloğlu, as tourists we bought very little cash with us and very few personal items as the staff of Cağaloğlu keeps telling us that they will provide everything. And they did. As a result I regret for not having enough cash to tip Erdal and Mekel. I bet I will return and request the same service by them in my next trip to Istanbul.

Excellent service and...

Excellent service and great experience — this was a great way to begin my trip after an 11 hour flight from Hong Kong. Lovely facility and the treatment itself was top notch. The ladies are very nice and efficient and there was a snack at the end with some time to relax a bit. 100/10 recommend!

Istanbul Hammam Experience

We were greeted and taken to the lovely spa facilities at the hotel. Given tea and a full explanation of our package and what to expect. The pool and sauna areas were lovely and clean and relaxing. The traditional hammam scrub and foam wash exhilarating and then a soothing massage. All in all a wonderful way to spend a couple of hours in Istanbul.

Great experience

Easy to find, and good comms - confirmed in advance we could bring suitcases etc. We wanted to leave bags early and then return for booking but they were able to accommodate us earlier which was helpful as took longer than expected (about 3hrs total for hammam and 1hr massage). Treatment experience was great, therapists great.

Aga Hamami in Istanbul

Jessica_W, Dec 2025

Best traditional Turkish Hamam experience!

The Aga Hamam was an unforgettable experience for my husband and myself. The staff were very informative of what to do. We both felt comfortable. It is an amazing bath. The hot marble slabs to lay on feel so good! Everything was so relaxing and invigorating! If I lived here I would get one every month!!

Acemoglu Historical Turkish Bath with Private Options

Alisa_Z, Oct 2025

Great experience

Experience was just as described + more. A friend and I went with the 30 min massage option. I think maybe they won't quite ready for us so they let us use the pool/sauna/steam room area first. The resting area did feel a little rushed--I just started sipping my tea when I was taken to the massage; the resting area was also hot (I thought they were supposed to be cool--I was afraid I'd sweat again after my bath!). They could also fix a couple of small maintenance issues- ex toilet stall door that doesn't close. The staff was very nice. I would do this again if visiting Istanbul
