Best Turkish bath in Istanbul! - Taking a Turkish bath in a historic hamami is a must in Istanbul and the Aga is one of the best! Built by Mehmet II as a hunting lodge and hamami the building itself is historic. Now fully updated and restored, it’s a high end well curated Hamami. The staff are excellent. It’s got 3 levels and the upstairs are for lounging after your massage and bath. The inside main level has the bath and the private scrubbing area for men and women. The common heated marble is shared by both men and women. Though smaller in size than its neighbor the Tahri, Aga exceeds in service and the welcoming factor by the staff. Reserve are preferred but walks in are welcomed based on availability.

So luxurious and pampering - The hamami was incredibly beautiful and the experience was great. I felt so pampered and clean after the scrub and bubble wash - the bubbles were like liquid silk!
I highly recommend this to anyone in Istanbul.

Wonderful! - What a great experience. It started off a little rough because we didn’t understand the process and our assistant didn’t speak English very well. Once we understood, it was amazing. We opted for the massage and it was worth the extra expense.

A Turkish Cultural Gem - We loved our experience here; the services are discreet and professional. The place is steeped in a deep and rich history…if only the walls could talk!

Beautiful Hammam, relaxed and well cared for. - Incredible building which feels both traditional and contemporary/stylish. Very welcoming on arrival even though I don’t speak Turkish. Clean, private changing rooms and then the Hammam
Room is stunning - all marble under a white dome with beautiful, tiled basins. It was quiet and peaceful while I was there.
Then the scrubbing and washing room, which is gendered. So I was with a female practitioner. The cleaning is thorough and feels wonderful.
Relaxing afterwards upstairs around the central atrium felt very spacious.
I had a massage, which was fairly vigorous and thorough but generalised rather than therapeutic. I felt very nourished and well cared for.
You finish the experience with Turkish delight and a speciality drink which was very uplifting.
I felt very comfortable here by myself and was impressed by the cleanliness, relaxing nature of the whole experience, and how soft my skin was afterwards.
Thoroughly recommend.

Delightful Turkish bath experience - My husband and I had the best experience at Aga Hamami! It was our first Turkish bath and they were very kind and generous (they explain and answer all your questions). The bath is amazing! If we had more time in Istanbul, we would have gone again.
They welcomed us into the beautiful reception area and were shown our changing room where there were towels and slippers for us. From there, we went into the main heated area that is beautifully tiled with a dome perfect for gazing at while lounging in the heat.
We then had our separate bathing experiences in smaller, private rooms where we were exfoliated, foamed, massaged, and rinsed. It was relaxing, wonderful and delightful.
Following this, you can lounge upstairs where they brought us Turkish delight and cool sherbet to drink. We enjoyed every moment!! I highly recommend this experience (and do it early in your stay so you can go again if you are able). :)

Take a chance & GO! - We arrived off a cruise ship. It took us about 20-30 minutes to walk there. My husband & I had never had a massage so this was a new experience. It was wonderful!!! From the sauna to the scrub & bubble wash to the oil massage to the facial. You leave with a relaxed, serene feeling. We recommend this to anyone who is “ thinking “ about it. You won’t be disappointed. We ‘re Seniors & loved the experience.

Pure pleasure - We arrived at 7pm , we paid for our service and then we were given a cabin to change, we stayed 30 minutes at the steam room, very clean.
Then qq came to get us, we were installed on a table , we were rubbed with the glove ,then foam massage, excellent and finally we were rinsed from head to toe. We were installed on deckchairs with a pt loukoum and drinks. We had taken the extra oil massage, our masseuses were energetic and gentle at the same time. It was a pure moment of relaxation, even if the Award is not given, we get value for money.
