Amazing hammam! Very polite staff, authentic atmosphere, oriental music. I liked everything - basking in the hammam, scrubbing, and soapy massage. I have been here twice already (last time in January 2022), and I will definitely come again when I come to Istanbul next time.
Booking via the website.
The whole program - warming up, scrubbing, massage is designed for an hour, then you can go up to the relaxation area, relax, drink tea with lukum, and also treat yourself to non-alcoholic tincture.
You don't need to take anything with you except a swimsuit, a towel and slippers are provided. There are dyson hair dryers, hair sprays, and some other jars)
We took a hammam, foam massage, oil massage and a face mask for two. 5 thousand liras were paid in cash for each of them.
The website, the booking process, and the confirmation are excellent.
The building is supposedly 15th century, spacious enough inside, 3 floors.
Hammam: large, spacious room, hot stones, high ceiling with dome, clean, warm, as it should be.
Washing and scrubbing: separate room for 2 men, women are washed separately. The performance was disappointing, the cleaner rubbed me with a washcloth like sandpaper in one place, rubbed my knee almost to the point of bleeding. I replaced the cleaner, the other one was better, but not as I would like.
Massage: another person has already done it, it's generally fine, but everything is fast, he kneaded, smeared oil, and hardly massaged his back.
Mask: clay was smeared, then washed off, nothing unusual.
Overall: it felt like everyone was rushing to go home. I do not recommend a session at 20:00. Disappointed. In Alanya, they did it for 35-50 euros per season and without complaints most of the time. And here it's expensive and you can't relax.
A gorgeous place 👌 historical hammam, pleasant memories from this place. I liked everything! Reception, service and of course massage, I advise you to visit! The price is not small, but it's worth it. Thank you very much!!!
