4.Istanbul: Public, Private or VIP Hammam & Spa in Old City

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 387 reviews · 50 - 115 minutes · from $41Best value

Review of Istanbul’s Old City hammam at Ramada by Wyndham, with public, private, and VIP baths, scrubbing, foam, sauna, and massage.

“I reserved this experience ahead of my visit to Istanbul during my free afternoon away from my tour group. The private massage and Turkish bath was a wonderful experience. The same woman guided me throughout the full experience-from sauna to massage—which was very thorough— on to the steam room, and finally to the Turkish bath. I only wish I had realized I was booking this within a hotel spa…I traveled across the city to attend when there was a similar spa/Turkish bath in own hotel of the same gain. For some reason, I had thought I was headed to a building that was only a Turkish Bath.”
