Top class. Everything was perfect: the welcome, the location, the service (sauna + hammam + bath & massage). Superb experience. I recommend without hesitation

I actually wanted to rate 'ALRIGHT', but the system won't allow me leave my feedback so that's why I clicked the 'Awesome' button...quite cheeky I'd say...anyway...here's my true feedback. The staff were amazingly respectful and took really good care of me, and the venue is out of this world!!. The soap bathing session was amazing as Housna has very caring hands. The oil massage from one of the other ladies was alright, but no real techniques were applied...just lots of effleurage. I booked a 3 hour experience that included 'reflexology' and 'Indian head massge' - Not quite reflexology or Indian head, more like a normal massage. The techniques used for these massages is very specific that should include trigger point therapy or focus on tension points...All in all the whole massage was very basic and not worth 105 Euros. And I would have expected the tea and water to be complimentary, which it wasn't. They should tell clients that drinks are extra at least. I wouldn't go back to this hamam and I've had better in the hotels. Headout, please be fair in allowing clients to leave true feedback and not just the good stuff!!

The massage itself was nice but they rushed us and made us leave right after the massages, while the description said we could reatate and relax

The tea drinking session is not included in the package. Need to pay extra. Didn't get what I was told on your website

Your experience

With stress at an all-time high, this is a good excuse to head to a Turkish bathhouse for a relaxing soak. Even better if it is a 500-year-old historic bath that still keeps its traditions! The Cemberlitas Hamam was built in 1584 by the famous Ottoman architect, Mimar Sinan for Sultan's wife. Located next to the entrance of Grand Bazaar, it is easy to find and offers services like massages, manicures, and pedicures. Your experience here includes scrubbing, foaming, and relaxing, followed by a tea-drinking experience. Men and women have different sections, and each visitor gets a locker room with a bed, mirror, and a hairdryer. Moreover, you don't have to carry anything with you. The bathhouse has towels, slippers, shampoo, soap, deodorant, hairspray, and gel. While your experience can last approximately 1.5 hours, you can stay in for as long as you like. You can also opt for a good massage if you'd like to enjoy more self-care and if there is time in hand. It is totally worth it!
