Hamam 58

Hamam 58 is a gay-frequented Turkish bath in the Gaziosmanpaşa district on Istanbul's European side. It opened in 2025, carrying on from the long-running Balat Çavuş Hamamı after that venue closed, and its team and regular crowd moved across. Away from the tourist hamams of Sultanahmet, it functions as a discreet men's bathing and meeting spot with the traditional hot marble, steam and scrub, and is listed on gay travel guides as one of the few genuinely gay-oriented hamams operating in the city. As with everywhere in Istanbul, discretion is expected.
