Selçuk Hamamı — Attraction in Selçuk

My friend visited this bath, and it seemed really nice, clean, and newly renovated. They also showed us a paper with all the prices/packages shown. The basic package price seemed comparable to the prices we saw in Istanbul, if not a bit cheaper. It was about 1100 liras, about 33 Euros or $36 USD for the basic scrub, sauna, and bubbly foam massage experience for an hour. I told them that I was only interested in the massage because the hot sauna and the scrubbing would aggravate my rosacea and eczema, so they gave me just the 30 minute massage for 500 liras, around 15 Euros or $16 USD.

The man who negotiated the prices with us seemed nice, as did the Iranian lady who gave us the massages.

We came right before closing, which we heard was 10 PM, so it was empty. We heard that usually the bath area in Turkish baths is mixed gender, so if getting your foam massage or body scrub in front of random people would make you uncomfortable, we recommend going at night. ^^

Overall, we think it was a really pleasant experience for our first Turkish public bath. ^^ We didn’t see any homeless people; the place looked beautiful, so we think that those reviews came from before this place was renovated. ^^ Note that we came during the off-season, so that could make a difference.

Worst experience ever We went for Turkish bath, full Body manage and foot massage and was very disappointed with their service and inconsistencies.

I have asked and paid for full body massage for 1hrs and 30 minute foot massage. But then when the full body massage finished, the massager told me that the receptionist did not inform me about the foot massage. After I went to talk to the reception who I talked to first and he approacher me with rude and aggressive tongue that you didn’t ask for it foot massage but we can do foam massage for you which I didn’t ask for it. the masseuse was just basically rubbing lotion on my legs for 50 mins straight and no massage technique at all. She turn off all the lights hoping that we can doze off so they can slack. Lastly I would suggest or recommend to try other place for massage instead here, unless you prefer just lotion rubbing.

If you don’t have choose and want to Give it a try, but make sure they understand what you asked for and get a confirmation recipe from them because after they can easily deny it. Also make sure the massager knows what they are doing not just a lotion rubbing.

Totally a bad experience and bad...

Beware !!! We were quoted 20€ for a hamama, this price only covers sauna and scrub, everything else is extra, but unfortunately it isn’t explained, so they exploit the experience to 3 times that price if your not aware. After the scrub I was offered a body treatment 10€ more, then a hair wash and keratin treatment 10€ more, then a oil massage 35€ more, then instead of standard oil, avocado oil 10€ more, then cupping during massage 10€ more and so on…. I had to question the price of everything they offered but as they don’t speak clear English and add it as though it’s part of the original price it’s easy to not realise and at the end the bill is expensive, which from past reviews detracts from the experience. I feel they need to be more transparent as it comes across as a dubious method to...
