This was my second time at HSH and once again, this is a 1000/10 recommendation. My service was performed by Rabia, and she was wonderful. Everyone there is so professional, helpful, kind, and the spa is the cleanest, most beautiful place. I will come here every single time I find myself in Istanbul, and hope you will, too.
Words really can’t express the profound experience I had. Everything was explained beforehand and Nihan was exceptional. Her warm demeanor and excellent massage skills were amazing. It was much more than just a massage, the history of the building itself and the generations of women who went before, made it much more special. Highly recommend you take the time to do this.

Such an amazing experience! I had both a massage and a traditional Turkish hammam, and Nur was absolutely wonderful. She made the entire experience feel so relaxing, comfortable, and special from start to finish. It was a total of 1.5 hours and the atmosphere the whole time was so grand and warm. The hammam was beautiful and spacious so you did not feel over crowded. The massage afterward was incredible. Nur was so kind, attentive, and professional. I left feeling completely relaxed and refreshed. I would absolutely recommend her and I cannot wait to come back again my next time in Türkiye 🇹🇷 It was the best ending to a fabulous trip! 🤍

I took a foreign friend who was visiting from abroad, and thanks to her, I had the chance to visit for the first time as well. It was an absolutely wonderful experience. Dilek Hanım, who gave me my body scrub and foam massage, was especially amazing. She is a lovely, professional woman who clearly loves what she does and does it exceptionally well. I will definitely come back again, and if possible, I will specifically ask to book an appointment with her.

What an amazing experience! If you have the money and the time, I highly recommend booking a Hammam experience at this historic place. Although a bit pricey, as is everything in Istanbul, it was worth it. I got the package which included relaxing in the hammam, body scrubbing, a green clay body mask, hair washing, a bubble massage, and relaxing in the lounge afterwards with a face mask, tea, and snacks. The staff were very professional and experienced. The atmosphere was lovely. I would do this again.

Nihan was my massage therapist. She was so kind and sweet and very amazing massage. She noticed I was amused by the clay for the mask and the bubbles for the massage and she let me play with the clay ball and she let me make the bubbles. I really appreciate her warm smile and energy. Her massage was amazing. I felt so relaxed afterwards I just wanted to sleep. I wish I can come to Turkey all the time and book a massage with Nihan. Thank you, Nihan!
