10 Spas & Wellness in Grand Bazaar That You Shouldn't Miss

October 18, 2021 Franklyn Hardiman

The mosques, bazaars, and Turkish baths of Istanbul could keep you happily occupied for your entire trip: an eyeful of breathtaking architecture here, a good-natured haggle over a carpet there. Kick your trip off at the awe-inspiring Sultan Ahmet Camii (Blue Mosque), which is visible from many points of the city. Stroll the Galata Bridge and stop by the Miniaturk Park to see its tiny artifacts. The Grand Bazaar has thousands of shops to browse, while the Egyptian Bazaar is a fragrant trove of spices and fruits.

Suleymaniye Hamami

Suleymaniye Hamam is a traditional Turkish bath that continues to operate today. The building, commissioned by Sultan Suleyman and designed by the Turkish architect Mimar Sinan, was built in 1557. It features dramatic archways and domes and is decorated with elaborate marble inlay. It is the only hamam in Istanbul where men and women bathe together. 40 Euro per person.The entire hamam experience will last between 60-90 minutes.

As you may know, most hamams have separate times for men and women, so my wife and I were ecstatic to know that we could experience this together. This was perfect for couples. They provide a wrap for men and shorts/top for women. The male hamam workers are professional and thorough. You are wrapped in warm towels afterwards and have time to enjoy drinks. This is a must do if you stay in Istanbul!

Reviewed By Hope1608 - London, United Kingdom

My sister and I went to these baths today - we had been to a hammam in Morocco before so we did broadly know what to expect. This is a really great, traditional Turkish baths which was clean and well staffed. The hot room is beautiful with a massive marble slab to lie on and domed roof. You really don’t need to bring a single thing with you - they provide everything you would need along with the basic entry fee. There are clean changing facilities with lockers so your belongings are perfectly safe. Afterwards there is a lounge-type area where you can relax and buy a drink. They have big signs saying that drinks are extra so there is no confusion. From my experience, hammams are not spas. They are primarily for cleaning purposes with a bit of ladies-only socialising which is part of the charm. Do not go if you are expecting some sort of Western-style pamper day. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a real Turkish experience and would 100% visit again!
