Çam Thermal Resort & Spa Hotel

Set among the pine forests of Soğuksu National Park, the resort is a major thermal destination in the Kızılcahamam area of Ankara, with spring water at 37-47°C that is rich in calcium, magnesium and bicarbonate. The complex has separate sections for women and men as well as mixed areas, and eight different thermal and swimming pools.

In the bathing areas, built in traditional Turkish bath style, kese (exfoliating scrub) and foam treatments are carried out by skilled bath attendants. For guests who value their privacy, private family hammams can be rented; each of these self-contained units has its own thermal pool, hammam and rest corner.

The massage menu includes volcanic stone massage, Swedish massage, Indian head massage, Lomi Lomi, Thai and chocolate massage, among other techniques. Day visitors who are not staying at the hotel can also use the pools, hammam and massage services; a marriage certificate is required when booking and on entry.
