Kasımpaşa is an old working district on the northern shore of the Golden Horn, just below Beyoğlu and Galata. It grew around the Ottoman Imperial Naval Arsenal and still feels residential and local rather than touristy. If you are staying in Laleli, Beyazıt, Sultanahmet or Çemberlitaş, it means crossing the Golden Horn, not a short walk across the old city. This page lists the baths and spas here, including Tarihi Kızılay Meydan Hamamı and Büyük Hamam. Opening hours, women's and men's arrangements and prices are on each venue's own page, with the date they were recorded.
| Hamam packages | 50–150 EUR | 11 |
| Massage (about 60 min) | 35–120 EUR | 17 |

9 venues on this list offer massage; some are massage-only, others combine it with a hamam. Durations and prices are listed with their date on each venue page.
There is no tram stop in Kasımpaşa itself. The closest anchors on the lines listed here are the M2 metro stations Şişhane and Haliç; from there you walk or take a taxi, and the ground is hilly. From Sultanahmet, Çemberlitaş, Beyazıt or Laleli, take the T1 tram to Eminönü or Karaköy and continue on foot across the bridge or by taxi. Alternatively, go to Yenikapı and ride the M2 through Vezneciler and Haliç to Şişhane. From Istanbul Airport (IST), take Havaist to Aksaray, Beyazıt or Sultanahmet and continue as above. From Sabiha Gökçen (SAW), take Havabüs to Taksim, then the M2 from Taksim to Şişhane.
There is no direct tram. The simplest route is T1 to Karaköy or Eminönü, then walk or take a taxi. Or go via Yenikapı and take the M2 to Şişhane or Haliç.

Each hamam has its own system: separate halls, separate hours or separate days. Check the venue's page before you go.
Four at the moment: Tarihi Kızılay Meydan Hamamı, Büyük Hamam, Catma Mescit Istanbul Hamam and Wo Spa (massage).
