Construction began under the supervision of Chief Architect Süleyman Ağa and was completed by his successor, Abdullah Ağa.  Cağaloğlu Hamamı was established primarily to financially support the Hagia Sophia’s library, unlike many hammams associated with mosques or palaces.  

The hamam showcases Ottoman Baroque architecture and is designed as a double bath, providing separate sections for men and women. Its facilities include traditional features such as the soğukluk (cooling room), ılıklık (warm room), and hararet (hot room), all adorned with intricate marble and stone work.

The hammam features separate sections for men and women, comprising traditional spaces. The entrance for the men’s section is on Vezir Han Street and, because the road height has increased over time, it now has a deep entrance that is ten steps below street level. There are eaves over the entrance and an inscription with six lines in three columns on top of the entrance door. In the past, the women’s section entrance must have been from the Divanyolu Street adjacent to the tomb of Sultan Mahmut, but today, women also use the men’s entrance and proceed to their own section through a side door.  The central hot room is distinguished by a large heated marble platform (göbektaşı) surrounded by bathing chambers and niches, all beneath a prominent dome supported by twelve columns.

Sultan Süleyman himself and subsequent sultans frequented this bathhouse, with designated quarters reserved for their use.  The hamam’s architecture features arched and domed structures with elaborate marble inlay on the walls. A private cubicle, reportedly used by Mimar Sinan during his residence near the mosque complex from 1557 to 1588, is still preserved. Another private cubicle, originally reserved for the sultan, was later used by high-ranking theological scholars.  

Suleiman the Magnificent had this bath built in 1557, being a part of the great Kulliye of Suleymaniye, the architect of which was Mimar Sinan. In this work, a private lodge belonged to Suleiman the Magnificent, which Mimar Sinan called a work that belongs to his “assistant architect period”. It was known also as the Dokmeci Turkish Bath since it was located near the foundry (dökmeci) ateliers during the Ottoman period. Rumour has it that a “bowl of icterus“ was lost after being used for ages. According to belief, those who got washed with this bowl were cured. Suleymaniye Turkish Bath is one of the nicest baths in Istanbul, with its domes and geometrically aligned chimneys. Eight marble columns are surrounding the central massage stone.

The Historical Ağa hamamı was constructed by Fatih Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror. Ağa Hamamı was used as a private hamam by Mehmed the Conqueror and his sons. At that time, Beyoğlu District was not a settlement area and the Sultans would come to Beyoğlu District for hunting. Mehmed the Conqueror constructed this building as a hunting house in 1454. Ağa hamamı was designed as a hammam below the two flats above when it underwent a large-scale renovation in 1844 by Abdulmecid (the 31st Ottoman Sultan). The Sultans and their sons used it until the final years of the Ottoman Empire.

The Ottoman Empire ended with the foundation of the Republic of Turkey in 1923. In those days, an Armenian woman bought the Ağa Hamamı, which was first opened to the public. Later she sold the Ağa hamamı to Huseyin Yilmaz. In his old age, Huseyin Yilmaz sold it to his nephew Ali Yilmaz in May 1974 after thirty-four years of operation. In 1986, Ali Yilmaz made a major renovation. It has served tourists and has been a mixed hamam in Istanbul for over ten years.

It offers separate sections for men and women, providing services such as traditional scrubs, massages, and relaxation areas. Guests can enjoy amenities like apple tea, enhancing the authentic Turkish bath experience.  

Attending a Turkish Hammam

Visiting a Turkish hammam (bathhouse) is a unique and culturally rich experience, but it follows a specific etiquette to ensure comfort and respect for tradition. While processes will vary from hammam to hammam and depending on availability of attendants, allow yourself around 90 minutes for the experience: 30 minutes for preparation and warming up, 30 minutes for scrub and washing ritual and 30 minutes for the rinsing and cooling down processes. Here’s a detailed guide to help you navigate the process smoothly:

Arrival & Preparation – The Soyunmalık

Upon entering the hammam, the reception staff will greet you. Typically, you can choose a self-service bath (where you wash yourself) or a full-service experience, though self-service is unavailable in most of the large historical Istanbul hammams. The minimum treatment is usually a “Traditional Hammam Ritual,” sometimes described as a “Scrub & Foam Service” or “Classic,” which includes the traditional scrub and massage by an attendant.

After paying, you’ll be given a pestemal (a traditional cotton towel) to wrap around your body and sometimes a pair of wooden slippers (takunya) or rubber sandals. Guests are typically required to wear a swimsuit or underwear. Still, if you did not bring any or prefer not to carry wet clothing afterwards, they usually provide disposable underwear. Men and women bathe generally in separate sections, but some modern hammams offer mixed-gender sessions or specific hours for couples. You’ll be directed to the soyunmalık (equivalent to the apodyterium in a Roman bath), a changing room to undress and store your belongings in a locker.

Warming Up – The Ilıklık

The hammam consists of multiple rooms, with the ılıklık (equivalent to the tepidarium in a Roman bath), often the first room you enter in a traditional Turkish hammam, is a moderately heated to around 35-40°C, designed for gradual acclimatisation. It’s warmer than the changing area but significantly cooler than the intense heat of the hararet. Consider it a transition zone where your body gently adjusts to the rising temperatures, preparing you for the deeper cleansing, typically you might spend around 15 minutes acclimatising in the Tepidarium. Often featuring comfortable seating, perhaps marble benches or tiled platforms, the tepidarium encourages relaxation and allows your pores to begin opening in the soothing warmth. Some tepidariums may also include a small pool or fountain, offering a refreshing contrast to the gentle heat.

Entering the Hot Room – The Hararet and Göbek Taşı

The main bathing area is the hararet (equivalent to the caldarium in a Roman bath), a steamy, intensely heated space, often with a high domed ceiling and a central raised heated marble platform (Göbek Taşı). The room is typically heated to 45-60°C, designed to open pores and prepare the body for cleansing, where the primary cleansing and detoxification occurs. Lie down or sit on the heated marble for 10-15 minutes to let your body relax and sweat. Around the room, you’ll see kurnas (marble basins) with hot and cold water. Use the provided tas (metal bowls) to pour warm water over yourself before the scrub. The word “hararet” comes from the Arabic word “ḥarāra,” meaning “heat.

The Scrub & Washing Ritual

If you’ve opted for a traditional service, a tellak (male attendant for men) or natır (female attendant for women)will perform the scrubbing. Using a kese (exfoliating mitt), they will vigorously scrub your entire body, removing dead skin. This can feel intense but is an essential part of the hammam experience. After the scrub, the attendant will rinse you with warm water and, depending on the service ordered, may give you a foam massage, which covers your body with fluffy soap bubbles. Some hammams also offer oil massages after cleansing, which are usually separately priced.

Rinsing & Cooling Down – The Soğukluk

Once the washing and scrubbing are complete, you can rinse off in the cold water basin or shower. Many hammams have a separate cooling room called the soğukluk (equivalent to the frigidarium in a Roman bath), where you can relax, drink tea, and let your body adjust before leaving. It is customary to sit for a while and enjoy a glass of Turkish tea or sherbet before getting dressed.

Tipping & Leaving

Tipping is customary in traditional hammams. If you received a scrub or massage, it’s polite to tip the attendant directly. Once dressed, you can relax in the lounge before heading out.

By following these etiquette rules, you can fully appreciate the centuries-old tradition of the Turkish hammam while ensuring a comfortable and respectful experience. A Turkish Hammam is more than just a bath; it’s a cultural experience that leaves you feeling incredibly clean, refreshed, and revitalised.

Other Treatments Provided in Istanbul Hammams

Apart from the Traditional Hammam Ritual, Turkish hammams offer a variety of additional treatments to enhance relaxation and rejuvenation. Here are five common treatments available in many Turkish bathhouses:

Hair Wash Ritual

A hair wash ritual in a Turkish hammam is an optional but highly popular treatment that enhances the traditional bathing experience. It typically occurs after the kese (scrubbing) and foam massage, when the body is deeply cleansed and relaxed. The ritual involves a thorough scalp massage and cleansing using natural soaps or herbal-infused shampoos. During the treatment, the attendant (natır for women or tellak for men) applies warm water from the marble basins (kurna) to rinse the hair before massaging the scalp with luxurious foam from olive oil soap or other organic cleansers.

The massage uses gentle circular motions to stimulate blood circulation, remove excess oil, and nourish the scalp. Some high-end hammams may also offer herbal rinses with ingredients like rose water, chamomile, or argan oil for extra hydration and shine. After rinsing, the hair is wrapped in a soft towel, leaving guests feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. This ritual is beneficial for removing product buildup, soothing the scalp, and enhancing overall relaxation, making it a perfect finishing touch to the hammam experience.

Aromatherapy Oil Massage

After completing the hammam ritual, many guests opt for an aromatherapy oil massage, which involves the application of essential oils to deeply hydrate the skin and promote relaxation. Trained masseurs use Swedish and deep tissue massage techniques to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and enhance overall well-being. Essential oils like lavender, eucalyptus, and rose add therapeutic benefits, leaving the skin soft and refreshed.

Clay or Mud Mask Treatment

Some hammams offer healing clay or mineral-rich mud masks, which are applied to the body or face after exfoliation. These masks are known for their detoxifying properties, drawing out impurities from the skin, absorbing excess oil, and providing essential minerals. The clay is left to dry before being rinsed with warm water, leaving the skin purified, tightened, and deeply nourished. Some hammams use Dead Sea mud or Anatolian clay, both known for their rejuvenating effects.

Coffee or Salt Scrub

For a deeper exfoliation than the traditional kese mitt, some hammams offer coffee or salt scrubs to remove dead skin cells further and promote circulation. The coffee scrub is packed with antioxidants and tightens and brightens the skin. In contrast, a sea salt scrub provides intense exfoliation and helps with detoxification and improved blood flow. These scrubs are often combined with natural oils for added hydration, leaving the skin polished and glowing.

Rose or Honey Skin Hydration Treatment

Following the exfoliation and cleansing process, guests can indulge in a deeply hydrating treatment using rose water, honey, or natural yogurt. Rose water is known for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, while honey acts as a natural humectant, locking in moisture and softening the skin. Some hammams also apply yogurt-based masks, which cool and refresh the skin, particularly after the intense heat of the steam room. This treatment is ideal for dry or sensitive skin and provides a luxurious, silky finish.

Foot and Scalp Massage

To complete the relaxation experience, many hammams offer targeted foot and scalp massages using aromatic oils. A foot massage focuses on reflexology techniques to relieve stress and improve circulation, while a scalp massage with warm oils can help stimulate hair growth and reduce tension. These specialised treatments are often performed as an add-on to the hammam ritual, providing an extra layer of relaxation before guests finish their spa experience.

Balinese or Thai-Inspired Stretching Massage

Some modern hammams include Balinese or Thai-style massages, which incorporate stretching techniques to improve flexibility and release tension. This treatment typically takes place on a floor mat rather than a traditional massage table, allowing the therapist to use their hands, elbows, and even feet to apply deep pressure and assist in stretching the body. It’s an excellent choice for those who want a more dynamic and energising experience.

Hot Stone Massage

In some luxury hammams, guests can experience a hot stone massage, where smooth, heated stones are placed on key energy points along the body. The warmth from the stones helps to relax muscles, relieve tension, and improve circulation, while the therapist performs a gentle, rhythmic massage to enhance the healing effect.

These additional treatments enhance the traditional hammam experience, offering guests a complete sensory and therapeutic journey that leaves them feeling cleansed, refreshed, and deeply relaxed.
