If you are in Istanbul you MUST go to the Cagaloglu Hammam. What a fabulous experience and fantastic way to participate in the Ottoman culture and feel immersed in this unique Turkish experience. Three girlfriends shared this amazing experience together and it still brings smiles and laughter and feels like a big warm hug! ❤️

This was a great experience. Nothing erotic about it. It was relaxing. Very invigorating. The Hamamı guy who was assigned to me was great. Respect and care. Massage was good too. Overall 100% recommend for a great experience at a Turkish bath. Will be going back if I get to Istanbul again!

Truly exceptional, my attendant was great and the whole experience was great. The history of the building just added to the entire experience. I wools totally recommend it. Especially after a long hot day if sightseeing.

Kick off with 15 minutes in a steam room, say hello to ultra-fresh skin with a 10-min kese scrub, and indulge in a bubble bath with a dreamy foam massage.

Go for the 60-min session to extend the bubble bath or choose the 80-min treatment to enjoy a luxurious 20-min foot massage from the best in the biz.

Treat yourself to the 105-min spa for private aromatherapy and Turkish snacks, or opt for the 120-min package for a collagen mask glow-up!

The 135-min experience offers the ultimate luxury with dual therapist treatments and a 15-minute foot/hand massage for some more de-stressing.

Fun fact: Some hammams have secret chambers called "halvet," where guests can enjoy more private treatments or relax in solitude.

We went at the hammam with 4. 2 men en 2 women. It was a sauna. Followed by a foam massage Sauna Quite little. I had the impression we were much too much at the same moment. Women experience was good but not as good as expected for that price. Very rough for the men. Water too hot/too cold. Painful massage. Not relaxing at all . And our men are sportive men, not the one complaining very quickly. All by all a bit disappointing. I'm happy we did it but I wouldn't do it once again.

We were two women and one man taking the Hamman. The rating is the average of the three. We all found the Hamman a good experience., except from the massage. One woman thought she was handed far too hard and the other far too imtimate.
