Istanbul Turkish Baths & Hamams

Hızırbey Hamamı

€50.00

Beneath the Hızırbey Hammam lies a vast underground cistern that has inspired countless legends throughout the centuries. It is believed that the true power of this place comes from its connection to another hidden ancient reservoir beneath Imaret Sabunhanesi Street, known in Latin as Cisterna Votorum, the “Cistern of Wishes.”

When these sacred waters meet, they create a rare revitalising energy that flows through the heart of the hammam.

Step into this timeless sanctuary to purify your spirit, immerse yourself in the healing touch of its legendary waters, and let your skin glow with youth and radiance.

Description

Full description

The Turkish bath is a centuries-old wellness ritual, a journey of physical purification and spiritual renewal.

Hızırbey Hamamı is Istanbul’s first public bath, built in 1458 by Hızır Bey, the first judge of the city after the conquest. Today, it stands as a living testament to Ottoman architecture, blending historic elegance with modern comfort.

As you enter, leave behind the chaos of the city and follow the same ritual practised here over 560 years ago.

Wrap yourself in a traditional peştemal, step into the warmth of the steam room, and let the heat gently open your pores.

Guests who cannot stay in hot areas for long can choose the minimum duration bath ritual. Inside, the temperature can reach up to 50 degrees Celsius 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 this, 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, before being taken back to your hotel feeling relaxed, rejuvenated and refreshed.

About Hızırbey Hamam

Built between 1454 and 1458 by Hızır Bey, the first kadi (judge) of Ottoman Istanbul, Hızır Bey Hamamı holds a unique place in the city’s history as its first public bathhouse.

More than just a bath, this hamam was designed to be a spiritual and social centre, a place where the people of the newly conquered city gathered, relaxed, and reconnected.

Today, Hızırbey Hamamı preserves the dignity and mystique of its origins while offering guests a refined modern wellness experience.

Hızırbey Hamamı is located in the Historical Peninsula, just a 10-minute walk from Eminönü and the Spice Bazaar (Mısır Çarşısı).If you’re using public transportation, you can take the M2 metro line to Haliç station, which is a 5-minute walk from the hamam. The closest bus stop is Vefa.
