If you are staying in Sultanahmet, this is a hammam you reach by crossing the Golden Horn side of town rather than by walking out of your hotel. It stands at Yüksek Kaldırım Caddesi 37 in Beyoğlu, among Galata, Şişhane and Tophane. Reviewers on Google give it 4.9 across 388 ratings. It is open daily from 11:00 to 23:00, so a late-afternoon or evening visit after sightseeing is possible. What it offers is not confirmed: we could not read its website, so treatments, prices, separate sections for men and women, and the need to book are all unknown.

Your first visit here

The listing says only that this is a hammam, so the exact treatments are not stated. Whether it offers a scrub and foam wash, massage, sauna, steam room or pool is not confirmed; ask before you go. Also ask about men's and women's sections, mixed use, booking and prices. Hours are 11:00 to 23:00 daily.

Fitting it into an Old City day

The hammam is in Beyoğlu, not in Sultanahmet. From Sultanahmet you can take the T1 tram via Gülhane, Sirkeci, Eminönü and Karaköy to Tophane, which is one of the neighbourhoods around the address. Şişhane is on the M2 metro line. Since it opens at 11:00 and closes at 23:00, finish the mosques and museums first and come in the late afternoon or evening.

What works well

  • Rated 4.9 on Google from 388 reviews, a high score backed by a fair number of ratings.
  • Open every day from 11:00 to 23:00, with no closed day to plan around.
  • In the Galata, Şişhane and Tophane area, which is easy to combine with a walk around Galata.

Worth knowing first

  • Services and prices could not be verified, so you need to check them before going.
  • Whether there are separate men's and women's sections, mixed use, or a booking requirement is not stated; ask first.
  • Turkish bath
