Reviews
This is highly recommended for relieving fatigue from a long flight. You can wash your entire body, and you may even be able to pour hot water over your head, so it's a good idea to bring your makeup, hair iron, etc., as needed. A hair dryer was provided. The entrance is in a different location than what is shown on Google Maps. Climb the slope and turn right, and you will see the entrance.
I had such a great experience here! The ambiance was warm, calming, and instantly made me feel relaxed. The service was amazing — the staff were attentive, gentle, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout. Overall, a really soothing and rejuvenating experience. Highly recommend if you’re looking to unwind!
A very good experience. The ladies inside are very strong. First is the changing room, where each person is assigned a private room with their own key, which is safe and secure. By the way, men and women are separated. Next is lying on the hot marble for fifteen minutes. Then the ladies start scrubbing, followed by a bubble massage. Finally, they blow-dry your hair, and you can go to the lobby to drink tea and eat a small dessert and relax. If you like ancient buildings, you can choose this place, from 1475 to now. The price is also OK. Recommended. Busra is very skilled. experience: This is mainly for bathing.
nice building and facade. good service and I did have great experience.

The front desk staff were very friendly and conversational, and communication in English was smooth. This is a perfect place to relax after a long flight. The male and female sections are separate, ensuring privacy, and the bubble bath massage was very comfortable.
Amazing experience! First time experiencing the Hammam in Turkey with wife and I chose this specifically for the history of the Hammam here. Had Turkey treats after. Both of us are very satisfied.

The hammam facilities are great! I've been to other places, but this place has good facilities and feels like a traditional hammam, so you can enjoy the Turkish atmosphere and relieve fatigue, so I recommend it. lol
It was very pleasant, and the customer service was excellent. I want to go again.
