What is a private Turkish bath?
A private Turkish bath, or private hamam, is a hamam session in a room reserved only for you. Instead of a shared hall with other guests, you have your own heated marble, sauna and foam area for the whole ritual.
Traditional public hamams in Istanbul usually separate men and women, and you share the space with strangers. A private hamam keeps the tradition of heat, kese peeling and foam, but changes who you share it with: nobody except your partner or your family.
