The Çinili Hamam is located in Uskudar on the Asian side of Istanbul. It is one of the best baths you can choose on the Asian side of Istanbul. The Hamam, was built by Kösem Sultan in 1640.

Not quite for the faint-hearted, inside the temperature can reach up to 50 degrees Celcius under the central dome of the building.

The combined intense heat and humidity encourage the pores to open and impurities to be extracted from the body.

Following which, your skin will be gently exfoliated with a Turkish scrub and you will receive a soothing soap massage.

Finally, after resting, you can enjoy Turkish tea or orange juice before being taken back to your hotel feeling relaxed, rejuvenated and refreshed.

Steam bath, bubble massage and relaxing on heated marble stone – what’s not to love? During Ottoman times, Hamam (Turkish baths) were places where people gathered and socialised. Even today, Turkish people, especially the older generations, love visiting hamams together with family and friends.

About Çinili Hamam

The Hamam, was built by Kösem Sultan in 1640.

For many years it remained an almost forgotten but in 1964 it was transferred to private ownership and reopened its doors to customers.

Çinili Hamam is the oldest hamam in the historical Uskudar (Üsküdar) neighbourhood. The bath was once called Çinili Hamam because it had famous Turkish mosaic tiles (called çini). Unfortunately, the tiles were stolen by thieves, though they have since been replaced with blue stones to reflect the original colour scheme.

Despite everything there are fantastic reliefs on the walls of the Hammam and in the bathroom section, there are basins which have survived to the present day. The high domes of the hammam, which covers a huge area, balance the heat circulation in the bath.

Extras
Take as much time as you like to return to the steam room or sit in the cool room.

Tip1: If you are planning to stay in the hamam for any length of time, take a small bottle of water in with you.
