- peter10211000Loved itA really wonderful experience - we went for the massage package and enjoyed a couple of hours of true pampering in a lovely yet unpretentious and historic environment. Will definitely come back! I saw someone commenting on the stairs - they are quite steep, but not slippery and if you hold on they shouldn’t be a problem at all.
- Camille B00Great experienceWe enjoy a lot our experience in aga hamami and we definitely recommended! They are very professional and the place is amazing!
- emmaemmem00MUST DO ITThe best thing we had in our visit in the city . The staff is very friendly and helpful. I recommend it for everyone . The ladies you scrubbed us are the best of all! And also ... the massage was excellent ...
- leilanio15800Fun and unique experienceMy boyfriend and I appreciated that the baths were co-Ed which allowed us to experience everything together! We opted for the oil massage afterwards that was nice as well. Would definitely recommend this to anyone traveling to istanbul
- martamB346SF00Oldest Turkish bathI was in the hamam in November it was nice hamam. Building is so much old but they did very good renovation .Staffs are very helpfull and kind. if you get swimming suit you will feel yourself better inside the bath . you should pay cash money it is in heart of the İstanbul. I hope I wil be there again
- SHAGELDİ J00Great hamamThis is my first time but everything iş wonderfull staff helpfull and very organized. After the scrub i have new skin. Highly reconmended
- ozlemzcc00Great experienceAmazing time amazing staff! The Best Way to feel relaxed during your stay in İstanbul. Thanks Ağa hamam. Everything is perfect !
- pinoale1400Amazing experience, and it's open!!I went with my gf and her sister back on 27/03/2020 and had the 'Massage Package' which includes the the foam bath and oil massage. The experience was not only great but fully professional, by the time you finish you'll be very very relaxed, they definitely know what they're doing. Even the tea is good! Bonus? There's a nice kitty roaming around the place. What else can you ask for?
- AngelaVB75700Amazing!My first experience and it was amazing!! If I ever visited Istanbul again, I would visit this place multiple times. And the price is amazing!
- khlo_l201700PerfectBest experience of Istanbul ! The staff was so nice with us ! Inside is very beautiful and authentic. The price is so interesting. And we even have gift at the end. Thank you so much
- erolldi00Old but not goldNothing fancy nor shinny or exclusive! This is the main remark in my review. We had a booking for one day earlier but staff was kind to allow us to postpone due to unforseen activities we did on first day. Very polity very professional. Next day we went at appointment time and greeted in good English and we were immediately given a small room we changed and left our stuff for storage. That was ok. We were taken to hammam main room where we immediately found 6 men(half nacked of course)I was with my girlfriend so felt a bit wierd. However, after few minutes some men left some ladies come in so we understood it was “just our bad experience” . However, when scrubing and washing starts ladies are taken in ladies washroom and washed by women, men by men. They let you stay approx 30min in hammam and wash yourself or use sauna and after that you get washed for 15-20mins. Then you are taken to floor up, where u can relax, until they call you for another 15-20min oil massage and put a face mask on you. You are sent to “relax” again but no one was comming to take us for mask cleaning!! Eventually, we were told that we had to wash it ourself. Place is antique and as history museum must have great value. Also, I would say that is nice as experience , but just two days ago we had similar treatment in Eforea Spa in Hilton Bomonti and it was different and very classy experience. More expensive of course but it would be pitty to compare. I would recommend as experience, but if you adore cleanliness dont.
- Sunshine24587200Very good Turkish HamamWe were there with my son and my husband. And I share our family experience. The place is very nice and it is very easy to find. But it is very important to book the time, because the are usually well booked. We were on time and the host explained us what to do. We wet to Hamam and it is very good inside. Clean and nice smell. After they divided me with my boys and I had scrub and oil-massage, It was really good! I was clean and relaxed. Then we took our time to relax. My husband’s opinion was that Turkish Hamam is for women. He for himself liked the Georgian bath more. As for me I enjoyed. So, I would suggest you to go to Turkish Hamam if you have chance to!
- 34cezarp00Get to know the Turkish culture!We started our day with a nice and relaxing bath. You are getting a great deep scrub and after you can relax by having a Turkish Tea!
- nf36200Great turkish bath and massageMy son nd I visited on our last full day and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The rub down was a little intense but so good after its done and never felt so refreshed afterwards. Hospitality was great and had a laugh with the guys working there.
- 600mandeepb00Amazing experienceMy wife and I went yesterday for her birthday...what a way to start the day...apparently it’s a better experience in the AM as it’s less crowded...we had the whole place to ourself...starting with the sauna, the scrub, the foam bath and then the oil massage...all included in the price...clean historical place. Keep in mind it’s a bath house, not a spa that we are used to in North America.

The place is beautiful and charming. However, our experience was not as pleasant as we expected. When I made the reservation I choose a package with 20 min massage that cost 850TL so I got surprised when we went there and they charged us 950TL instead. I explained that when I booked the price was not 950TL but 850TL but they refused to keep the price I had during my reservation arguing that they had changed prices 3 days ago. Either way, we decided to pay the money and enjoy it but the experiences of the foam bath and the massage for me and my partner was completely different. In his case, both the massagist and the guy who did the foam bath did not care a lot and put any effort to make the experience pleasant, it was not a massage but just patting his back with a bit of oil/foam while the massagists were talking to each other. For me, although a bit better I had the feeling they were not professional massagist and were not really careful.
To sum up, I think it is too touristic despite pretending to be original

Very Disappointed. I and my wife reserve the Ottoman Package, the most expensive package for Monday night at 7pm. We travelled from USA. We don’t speak Turkish. We arrived 20 minutes before our appointment time. The lady who checked us in spoke good English. Everyone else in the building speak no English at all. No one could explain us what is going on. The lady who checked us in left because we were the last customers. Anyway, they kept sending us up an down two floors in a very narrow marbled 18inch wide squirrel staircase. It was very dangerous and Very easy to slip because we were scrubbed with soap downstair and were all wet. Nobody would explain us what’s next. Just tell us to go up or go down. Finally on 3rd floor they finished our massage and applied face mask in a massage room and told us to go wait outside the massage room. There were another couple, who did not speak English so we couldn’t communicate, were very confused too. We waited and waited and see every employee passing us by and leaving the building. We knew they closed at 10pm. And it was 9.45 pm. Finally we got worried so we went downstair with the face mask on, there was one guy sitting by the main door. We asked him what should we do. He told us to go upstair to 3rd floor again, wash the face then come downstairs, change the clothes and go home. He was the last person on the building and it was close to 10pm by the time we finish washing our face and came downstairs. He did not bother to tell us how to dry our hair or provide us extra towel. We asked him if he can help us to get taxi. He said just keep walking towards Main Street on left and you will find some. We managed somehow and made it to our hotel safely. But I highly recommend not to go there after dark. The hamam is locating in a old part of town and in the dark alley. Taxis are hard to find .

We booked this hammam for my husband’s birthday after seeing the good reviews we were quite looking forward to this experience. We took the package for 800TL each which included also the oil message and the head message. We really enjoyed the hammam area and I also really enjoyed the oil message with the girl but my husband was really disappointed with his message as it was not a message at all but it was just the guy spreading oil on him however the girl that did mine was super. We were both extremely disappointed with the head massage though, it lasted less than 5 mins and was really quick, hence not worth the extra 200TL we paid for this. Before leaving they asked us if everything was ok and they offered us to re-do the head message, but we didn’t bother as we were dressed up and ready to leave by this time. Overall, I don’t think the experience was worth the 103 euro we paid. However, on a side note the guy and the reception was quite nice, the girls don’t speak English very well so they don’t communicate with you.

Not what we expected. A real sense of production line. No guidance or instruction. Left in towel and mud on face hair full of massage oil no showers or anyone to say what was happening. In addition your walking up three floors with oil and wet slippers. Your steam on ground floor next to reception so walking in reception in tiny wet towel through to third floor up slippy marble staircase for masssge no water yo second floor to rest and dry face mask to third floor to wash face to second floor to dress...no shower . Nothing is comfortable. Your lying half naked and people fully dressed in outdoor clothes are waiting at the one toilet. Water on ground floor only. So your thirsty but no water available.
I left building oil covered sweating and hair soaking wet into a December night. No taxi and good 15 minute walk through dark lanes to tram. Certainly not a spa experience and 2300 tl for a very quick treatment. Staff had timers and when beep went you were told finished and to leave room. I was naked sitting on a stool getting water thrown at me and door open .
Building tough to find. Not cheap in taxi and steep hill if public transport used .
Felt like we were basically self directing through process. Reception guy friendly.

Better to just go for the Hamam. The extras such as massage, head massage and mask were very disappointing. The building is nice bit the first floor "relaxing" space isn't very relaxing when staff at reception speak so loudly at each other.

The price is high for the quality of the experience we received. There was no private experience as people were all around. It was not comfortable, or relaxing being whisked from one room to another. Also, the stairs are a fall hazard, especially for older people that may find it hard to get around. The guys that did our massages (if you can call it that) were terrible. It was just random rubbing. They ‘massaged’ some parts of one side of our bodies but were inconsistent skipping the same parts on the other side. The massage guys also smelled bad as if they did not wear deodorant or take care of their personal hygiene. This made the massage very unpleasant and unprofessional. The solid marble massage tables where the massages are performed are very hard. There are no pillows for your legs or head so the whole experience is uncomfortable. The guys doing the massage did not speak any English so communication and direction were lacking. Everything was communicated through one-word commands it seemed that they had learned to deal with foreign tourists. Any communication and interaction beyond that were non-existent. The soap suds part of the massage was nice and relaxing, but it seemed rushed. The sauna is unbelievably hot, so hot it will take your breath away and you might pass out. Honestly, we did not find it relaxing, but more of a struggle to breathe while we stood in it. Overall, this place needs improvements to create a better, more relaxing customer experience. It may still be a place to visit and experience yourself when you are in Istanbul, but it could have been better.

The entire place needs to be cleaned thoroughly and there needs to be more air movement, ie ceiling fans. The people in the Reception were nice and helpful, but the people doing the scrub-down and massage were quite brusque. The massage was one of the worst I've ever had, and I was in a dark room with a stranger and no ventilation. The stairs to get to the 3rd floor massage area and the 2nd floor restroom are very steep and lacking handrails. The towels for covering up were very skimpy, and one wasn't clean.

This is really an excellent, ancient Turkish ritual dating back centuries.
Definitely leave your inhibitions at the door and expect to be wearing nothing but a towel for your whole stay.
Your first port of call after deciding the package is to change into the towel and slippers provided, pick up your loofah and head to the steam room- this is mixed.
After a relaxing time opening up your pores in the steam too , you will be taken to your respective treatment area- male or female, there is no mixing here.
You will be asked to take off your towel, take bikini bottoms or briefs if you like, you can keep those on.
Next to lay on a stone bench to be scrubbed, your treatment provider will be topless too.
A very soapy wash and hair wash finishes the treatment, then swaddled in towels, and chill out time.
Really is a great experience, maybe not for the prudish.

Turkey is known for its hamams. Back in the day, there were no showers in the houses and people came to the hamams to get cleaned up.
Aga Hamami is one of the oldest in the city,500+ years old. It is well maintained and has a lovely feel to it. Make a reservation online to ensure you get a slot. The service is Fab!
We took the full package - sauna, scrubbing, foam wash, oil massage and face pack. Takes about two hours.
First you go put your things in a room and change into the towel, carry your scrub cloth. Spend about 15 mins in the sauna and around half an hour on the hot marble. Super relaxing.
Then a person (same gender as you) gives you a good, solid scrubbing and soap wash. Once done, you move up to relax with some apple tea for about 15 minutes. Then go for your massage and face pack. Relax for another 15-20 minutes till your pack dries (drink more apple tea), wash up, get ready and you're done. Make sure you carry a spare change of underwear since one set will get wet in the sauna/marble bath.

Amazing! The hospitality amazed us. We took the biggest package (500TL) and for that price we got a 3 hour treatment. Sauna, body scrubbing, buble massage, turkish tea, oil massage and face and hair massage.

It is for both Male and Female, but the treatment areas are separate. Females will be stressed by debates and males will be attended by males. The only mixing is in the reception area, and the sauna where you go before your treatment.

Hello. I am a solo female traveler. Can I book Your traditional massage service (scrub, foam bath, oil massage) ?

The first time I visited this hamman I was also a solo female visitor. They are very warm and welcoming. The actual body scrub and massage are done in a separate room away from any males. The sauna can be mixed but you will still feel safe.
Please can you tell me if this can be booked for a session for my family only - there are 5 of us or are there separate ladies sessions - I am looking to book for myself, my husband and three sons

They speak English, you can email them directly with any questions. You have to call or email them to make reservations anyways. To my knowledge, you can all go together, the bath house is mixed *where you wear swim suits and sit in the steam room together* and the rest of the areas are mixed, but the men and women are scrubbed/bubbled and massaged in separate areas.
