Thomas chose the scrub and massage package and says his attendant clearly explained when to sit up and turn over throughout the ritual. He found the thirty-minute massage strong yet relaxing, then unwound with a drink in the lobby and described the entire hamam experience as a must-try in Istanbul.

She enjoyed the scrub, foam wash and oil massage, appreciated the separate women’s and men’s sections and same-gender attendants, recommends an early weekday visit for a quieter experience, and would gladly return.

She appreciated the secure locker, slippers and provided garments, enjoyed the scrub, hair wash and head-to-toe massage with subtly orange-scented oil, and found the location beside the tram stop especially convenient.
