Ayasofya Hurrem Sultan Hamam, which is located in the historic peninsula between Blue Mosque and Haghia Sophia Museum is spread over threeacres of land, containing Turkish bath, restaurant and cafe sections.
Cold Room
You first enter what is known as the cold room. Within the cold room section are a VIP room, changing rooms with security lockers, a hairdresser, reception area, massage rooms, vitamin bar, a boutique and the resting area. This is where you will change into the pestamal (silk wrap) before your bath. After your bath experience this is also the place to relax, drink a replenishing sherbet (fruit drink) and gaze up at the huge dome basking in the history of the sultans.
Warm Room
After perspiring in the hot room, this is the place where the attendants will scrub your skin. You can also see part of the old heating system that was originally used in the hamam.
Hot Room
The large marble massage platform in the hot room lies under the hamam’s dome and is surrounded by both open and private alcoves (halvet). The temperature in the hot room is around 42 – 47 degrees while the private alcoves may reach 60 degrees. In the hot section there are basins to fill with cooling water and gold-plated bowls for pouring it over your body. This room is where you first go so the heat prepares your skin for the scrub. It is also where the bubble wash and massage service is provided after your scrub.
