5 out of 5 stars – Exceptional Experience!

5.00I have visited many hammams around the world, but my experience at Hurrem Sultan Hammam with Selda was truly exceptional - easily one of the best I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, the service was outstanding. Selda was wonderful - professional, attentive, warm, and genuinely skilled. She took excellent care of me throughout the entire Pir-ü Pak treatment. Her technique was perfect, combining strength and gentleness in all the right places. The scrub, foam massage, and massage left me feeling deeply relaxed, refreshed, and glowing. The hammam itself is beautiful and historic, but it was Selda who made the visit truly memorable. She explained everything clearly, made me feel completely comfortable, and provided a level of care and attention that is rare. I left feeling lighter, cleaner, and incredibly pampered. If you’re considering the Pir-ü Pak package, I highly recommend it — and if you’re lucky enough to get Selda as your attendant, you’re in for a real treat. She is a true professional and a highlight of the entire experience. Thank you Selda and the team at Hurrem Sultan Hammam for an unforgettable hammam experience! Highly recommended.
Unique and unforgettable experience.

5.00I Visited Hurrem Sultan Hamami with my brother for the zevk-i sefa treatment and it was an unforgettable experience! From the second we stepped through the door until the second we left, we received the best care from every member of the staff. Emin and Ramzan who took care of my brother and me were en example of courtesy and professionalism and I highly recommend them to visitors of the hamam. The hamam was originally built by the famous Ottoman architect Mimar Sinan which added to the uniqueness of the experience.
Wonderful Experience - highly recommend

5.00What a surprising and incredible experience. My first time at a Hamam and I was nervous about the communal nakedness and hygiene. The entire experience from start to finish was respectful and sanitary with disposable underwear provided, shower shoes, Turkish towels to wrap and lie on, etc. The warmth of the marble and water was very welcome as it was chilly outside - and it was just warm enough without being hot. Nur was my stellar attendant - she was friendly with enough English for us to communicate well, and very strong and skilled with her scrub and massage. I would very much recommend this experience, here, while visiting Istanbul. Don’t skip the ottoman juice afterwards - take your time in the tea house before departing.
Awesome experience!

5.00This is a must-do in Istanbul. It is an incredible historic building and the staff is so friendly, kind, and provide great service. Ismail and Aman were both so helpful and did a great job. Just spending time in the historic hammam is worth it but the services are so luxurious and wonderful as well.
Unbeatable experience

5.00It was an mazing atmosphere going to a hammam in the middle of the old city. The facilities are spotless and everything is provided to you for the hammam experience. I loved being able to have coffee and sherbet in the middle of my massage. My attendant Ersen also did a fantastic job as a masseuse and guiding me through the hammam process. If I ever return, I will be using his services again. I highly recommend him to anyone who plans on going!
