Best Spas and Hamams in Zeyrek

On this page 10 Hamam2 Day Spa

Zeyrek is a quiet historic neighbourhood in Fatih, on the slope facing the Golden Horn between Süleymaniye and Unkapanı. Its best-known landmark is the Molla Zeyrek Mosque, a former Byzantine monastery church of the Pantokrator. We list two hamams here, Zeyrek Çinili Hamam and Hizirbey Hamam 1458, so it works as a side option next to the Laleli-Beyazıt-Çemberlitaş area. It suits visitors who want a traditional bath in a residential old quarter, away from the busiest tourist streets.

12 spas and hamams in Zeyrek that we reviewed and listed. 10 of them are traditional Turkish baths. Ranked by editor score; sponsored entries are clearly labelled and never affect the score. 10 of them sit just outside the area boundary and are shown with distance.

How do I get to Zeyrek from Vezneciler?

Get off the M2 at Vezneciler-İstanbul Ü. and walk to the neighbourhood. It sits on the slope between Süleymaniye and Unkapanı, so parts of the route are uphill or downhill; wear comfortable shoes.
