Hamam historique de Cemberlitas dans la vieille ville

Disappointing. Our 1hr experience lasted 45 minutes. We felt rushed through. We were continually reminded about tipping by all staff. Very average service and average massage.

The true hamam experience in historic building by renowned Architect Sinan.

No grand entrance - look out for a small shopfront close to the tram stop in the entrance area of the square. I went alone, with no Turkish language, and it was fine, but all very different to a hotel spa treatment. You are given a thin towel (this is to lay on and not to dry yourself with because it's going to get soaked); a box with a glove for the soap masseur to use; and bikini bottoms (fine). Changing room upstairs and a sturdy locker and strong key. Secure set up. Then into the hamam. Hot, steamy, a bit 'wow' after the entrance experience, light coming through the circles in the domed roof, and you'll be met and told to 'lie down'. The experience begins. I couldn't chit-chat, so it was all basic instructions - lay down, roll over, etc. Washed down by hand, soapy massage, and then ... get ready for this ... just as you are relaxing ... its time for the rinse down. This is basically the force of jugs of water thrown over your face, hair, body. About 10-15 minutes for all of this. Then time to relax as long as you wish in the hamam and then sit and cool down in a space next to the changing rooms, where you'll be given your fluffy towel and there are hairdryers available. Would definitely recommend and hopefully your expectations will be a bit clearer than mine were ... The whole experience was around an hour but you could have lingered longer. You'll remember it!

The TURKISH BATHROOM is STUNNING!! Super good both facilities and organization and workers. The only thing I didn’t give him an EXCELLENT was because we waited more than 20 min for a pedicure that didn’t last just 10 and that was simple

Fabulous historical hanmam. Just a short distance from the main square. Wasn’t too sure what to expect, but very traditional bathing experience. I felt absolutely fantastic afterwords. Would definitely recommend.

Nice experience! It was the first time that I did a hamam and the experience was very interesting. The location si old and for that it takes you back in time.

Amazing experience, super relaxing and with very smart staff. Structure very clean and warm. Amazing…

Great experience. A bit confusing for a first-timer but very relaxing and authentic. The location is great as well.

We had a wonderful hammam experience. We not only had fun, but also felt deeply cleansed after the "kese" massage. The atmosphere of the place took us on a historical journey, transporting us back to antiquity times.

I recently visited Çemberlitaş Hammam with my friends, and we all had an incredible time! The historic atmosphere and stunning architecture really stood out, giving us an authentic taste of Turkish culture. We tried the traditional body scrub and foam massage, and it was so relaxing—my skin felt amazing afterward. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the whole place was clean and well-maintained. It was a perfect way to unwind after exploring Istanbul. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique, rejuvenating experience!
