Petek SalmanAugust 27, 2015The best traditional and real hamam experience in Istanbul. Prefer not to compare with the 5 star hotel hamams, as this is the real deal. (Best 5 star hotel hamam service is Swiss Hotel by the way)
János BinderMarch 15, 2016Entry with scrubbing/massage 170 TRY, extra massage ranges between 140-310 TRY, there is 5% discount on cash payments and USD/EUR exchange deviates 3% for the mid-market rate. Best to pay in cash TRY!
Moh Al-FayadhMay 23, 2017Amazing experience feeling super fresh and recharged after having the traditional hamam followed by a 55 min massage session, a bit expensive coating 190TL for hamam experience and 230 for massage.
Burcu YatmazogluSeptember 5, 2018Now it's time to pamper yourself in Istanbul. It was built by famous architect Mimar Sinan who is also known with Süleymaniye Mosque. Enjoy the seasonal sherbet that they serve upon your arrival.
Kara SimsekSeptember 30, 2018A wonderful way to spend a few hours. Very traditional and relaxing. Take bikini bottoms and a hairbrush!
BrandieMarch 27, 2019This has always been on my bucket list, it was quite the experience too. The building was absolutely gorgeous and the entire process was just so satisfying and calming. I felt amazing. A must do.
Tugba ZorApril 14, 2017Definetly the best turkish bath in Istanbul. Special treatment, quite and relaxing environment. Also massage is perfect! You should spoil yourself taking it after traditional hamam experience.
BernaNovember 7, 2015Best turkish bath in Istanbul. Hygenic, %100 traditional and %100 customer satisfaction. Go and spoil yourself like sultans ;)
Osama HamzaFebruary 17, 2017The Hamam is amazing very clean service is 5 starts, staff is amazing and very good prices for the services they provide here. If you coming to Turkey you MUST try it.
Hanouf AlSanadFebruary 7, 2019Clean, professional and great experience of Turkish bath in very historical place. I followed with massage and tea with simit.
- The cleanest one when i compare to others in Istanbul. Also historical which was a project of Mimar Sinan. Price is normal & the experience is amazing. Hamam and massage highly recommended.

Assala NahassMay 8, 2023Great place , nice welcoming with Juice and nice people . The Turki hamam is perfect. This the First time I go to Turkich Hamam and It was Good . Very very clean and Organize .
Karla DonjuanFebruary 12, 2018Not bad,but liked better the one in aya Sophia. That one has a larger individual locker room, you take with you the tools used for bath and offers complementary snacks & Turkish coffee,when bath is ✅
s vMay 14, 2018Wear bikini bottoms or underwear that can get wet and bring a spare to change into after. They scrub EVERYwhere! You can tie your hair up initially; later they will have you undo it to wash it.
Morris SinDecember 27, 2014A must do every month. You get your skin all peeled off for a fresh start! Very calm and relaxing experience. Massage is also recommended!
Dan FetznerAugust 14, 2017Really an incredible experience. Massage was decent but if you wanna be cost effective just stick to the hamam. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Istanbul!
chrisApril 26, 2013I really enjoyed my experience here. Not rushed through like I read some of the other more touristy places do. Staff was incredibly attentive but let you relax. Thumbs up!
Samar JarrahAugust 21, 2018Great service. Very clean. Great massage. Not expensive if you compare with US prices.
Panos LsJanuary 14, 2015Very good hamam. Professional and clean. Not as touristic as the most advertised ones. Worth the money for a true turkish experience.

Fatima Al HashimiDecember 12, 2018Great Hammam experience, especially in winter when it’s 4 degrees outside!! Massage wasn’t that good though. Skip it.
Burcu UçarayFebruary 2, 2016Restoration for this hamam lasted for 6-7 years. It looks really beautiful. Experience is memorable and relaxing.
Gergely VarjasiSeptember 5, 2014Amazing experience. Beautiful, clean bath. Hamam ritual worths its price. Just few guest, not croweded.
DalalJune 14, 2016Feriye is the best! Clean quiet friendly place❤️ and their Sherbet is the amazing😍
Perfect service. Make sure you allow enough time to relax and enjoy the hamam after the treatment.

sezussMarch 8, 2016A bit expensive comparing to Cemberlitas/Cagaloglu... but If you are a fan of Turkish bath unless you can try once to feel like a princess/prince 👸👳
Lovely place Must visit in Istanbul Good balance between quality and prices
Didem AracıJanuary 17, 2013Great experience... Excellent Turkish Bath... You should definitely visit Kilic Ali Pasa Hamam :)
Elena KiselevaApril 9, 2015Just got back from paradise! 140 TR for hamami and 180 TR for full body massage - costly but it's worth it.
A bit more expensive than the others, but worth every cent. Ladies from Morning to 4 pm, men from 4:30 pm to 11
Ivana KurtovićAugust 4, 2015Nice experience of hamam, very clean. Women in the morning, men in afternoon
- margheritaMay 25, 2015A lovely experience, but definitely geared for the tourists in service and price. Go elsewhere for the authentic
