Overview

Discover the ultimate authentic Turkish bath experience in the heart of Istanbul’s Old City. Our Laleli Hamam blends historical charm with modern luxury, offering a sanctuary where you can escape the hustle of the city. The moment you enter, the warm marble interiors and soothing ambiance transport you to a bygone era, where Ottoman traditions of cleansing and relaxation are preserved.

Your journey begins with a steam-filled soak in the heated Gobek Tasi (marble slab), allowing your muscles to unwind and your pores to open. A skilled tellak (attendant) will then guide you through an exfoliating scrub, removing dead skin and leaving you refreshed. The highlight? A luxurious foam massage, where clouds of silky bubbles cleanse and invigorate your body, followed by a deep-tissue massage to melt away tension.

This holistic spa experience is more than just pampering—it’s a cultural ritual. The hamam tradition dates back to the Romans and was perfected by the Ottomans, making it a must-try for travelers seeking both wellness and history. Our expert therapists use natural olive oil soap and traditional methods to ensure an unforgettable detox.

After your treatment, relax in the cooling room with a cup of herbal tea, letting the tranquility sink in. Whether you’re a solo traveler, a couple, or a group, this experience is tailored to leave you renewed, energized, and deeply connected to Istanbul’s heritage.
