Hammam Yalbugha (Arabic: حمام يلبغا) is a Mamluk-era public bath ("hammam") in Aleppo, Syria. It was built in 1491 by the Emir of Aleppo Saif ad-Din Yalbugha al-Naseri. It is located next to the entrance of the Citadel of Aleppo, on the banks of the Quweiq river.

The Hammam Yalbugha was damaged during the Syrian war.
