Sifa Hammam Traditional Turkish Bath

About Sifa Hammam

Built in 1777, Sifa Hammam reflects the architectural and cultural character of an Ottoman bathhouse. Visitors choose among clearly defined service packages and can expect consistent standards of cleanliness, professionalism, and cultural authenticity throughout.

Sifa Hammam is a traditional Turkish bath facility located in the historic Sultanahmet district of Istanbul. Constructed in the 18th century, it represents a well-preserved example of Ottoman hammam architecture, featuring domed ceilings, heated marble platforms, and the classic warm-hot-cool room progression.

Designed to provide a complete wellness experience, Sifa Hammam emphasizes heritage, cleanliness, and relaxation. The space features classic architectural elements and an atmosphere that is serene and modest, focused on the bathing experience rather than extravagance.
