Full description

Gedikpasa Hammam invites you into one of Istanbul’s oldest bathing traditions, housed in a magnificent 15th-century structure built in 1475 by Gedik Ahmet Pasha. Spread across a vast historic complex with an impressive 16-meter-high dome, this hammam offers far more than cleansing—it delivers a journey through centuries of Ottoman wellness culture.


Located just steps from the Grand Bazaar, the hammam welcomes guests into gender-separate sections, each served by same-gender professional therapists. From the moment you enter, the warmth of marble surfaces and the calming echoes of flowing water create an atmosphere of deep relaxation.


Your experience begins with a steam bath that gently opens the pores and prepares the skin for the traditional kese exfoliation. Using time-honored techniques, the attendant removes dead skin, leaving your body refreshed and renewed. This ritual is followed by a rich foam massage, where soft bubbles glide across the body, easing muscle tension and promoting total relaxation.


For those seeking enhanced comfort, optional massage treatments and private-use upgrades allow you to tailor the experience to your personal preferences. Combining history, ritual, and indulgence, Gedikpasa Hammam offers an authentic escape into Istanbul’s living heritage—revitalizing both body and mind.
